Political Quotes

Madam Speaker, the American people are asking one simple question: Why does the Biden administration hate energy freedom in America? They have asked that question every time they have gone to the gas station and seen prices skyrocketing. Now, they are asking that question as this administration is falling to its knees and begging Iran for a nuclear deal. Sacrificing our geopolitical leverage by appealing to our enemies is appalling, and it is the last thing that should ever be considered. Madam Speaker, this administration would rather be awarded a participation trophy than dig in and fight to put American interests first. That mentality is bankrupting our great country, and we have been led into a political minefield. It is a display of pure weakness and an absolute disgrace. ____________________
