I hope expressed our strong disapproval.

I would say the Ranking Member and I believe wholeheartedly that painting a broad brush with our Federal employees is not something we want to do.

I have been willing to invest political capital on this particular issue and it is mainly out of my respect for the ranking member and the chairman.

I think it is one of the areas that has the most potential, but probably has the most work to do as well.

It is time for the President to stop trying to burnish his foreign policy legacy and stop putting politics ahead of national security.

This really is about making sure Federal employees adhere to the highest standards.

the use of American taxpayer money to establish a government of our choosing is not what we do.

Drug trafficking funds terrorism. It is that simple. So our comprehensive strategy must also address this fundamental cause of the problem.

There is a finite amount of resources and you have to make a decision each and every time where you are going to deploy those resources.

Let it be clear, I am here to support you in any way that I possibly can because I believe in the future of what you are trying to do.

I have expressed to them over and over our desire to make sure that we have an open and democratic process.

When we see reports recently of funds being given to a nonprofit that indirectly... undermines everything that we are trying to do.
