This is a problem for the United States of America.

The cartel's picking and choosing who enters our country right now instead of us, and that is a significant threat to this country.

This is especially concerning given recent reports that we have that there are Isis sympathizers smuggling Russian and Eastern Europeans across the border.

What happened to the idea of the rule of law?

The answer is to have real borders. The answer is to have the rule of law.

As the years go by, it is going to be cheaper for you to do it automated eventually.

American truckers deserve clarification, and that is what we are trying to do here.

Is this the America we want--an America where every town is a border town?

As Secretary of Homeland Security, the American people have entrusted you with the security of their communities and the security of their Nation. You have failed them.

In the words of Ronald Reagan, quote, 'A Nation that cannot control its borders is not a Nation.'

The reality is that, under your leadership, you've created the largest border crisis in the history of the United States.

Secretary Mayorkas, you must resign. Will you resign?

if you will not resign, that leaves us with no other option: You should be impeached.

Seventy-one thousand. Seventy-one thousand human souls.

It is especially unnerving considering that the President of the Department, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, orchestrated the intelligence community letter that was used to undermine the Hunter Biden laptop story.

I reiterate my strong support for S. 111, the Providing Accountability Through Transparency Act. The rules that agencies impose have real-world consequences. Americans should be easily able to understand what a proposed rule does. Instead…

Just to answer your question quickly, perhaps if we didn't let people in and out of prison, lower felonies to misdemeanors, and generally not obey the rule of the law, we would have a lot less gun violence.

The current administration's relentless encroachment on our First Amendment rights is deeply concerning to me.

I wanted to talk about unpaid consultants for a moment, which the Office of the Inspector General--this was not me saying this; the Inspector General said this--labeled as, quote, 'unprecedented.'

I am asking you as a person, as a human being, sitting next to Mr. Rosenberg, is it good, should we--or is it a waste of time when all these people who wait for years, good, hardworking people that want the dream of the shining city on the…

When you have a Federal agency, whether it is the FBI or the FTC, that comes calling at your front door, and they say gosh maybe you should be doing things a little bit differently, they pay attention.

The barriers to entry that have been built here in Washington, DC, over the last few decades are significant.

I'm concerned--and I'm just picking up where Congressman Fry left off on the State of morale at the FTC since you began your tenure.

These Democratic policies might create sanctuaries for criminal illegal aliens, but they are creating a dystopian nightmare for law-abiding citizens and noncitizens alike who must live in them.

I want to know. If you answer no, it wouldn't be a good thing, I want to know why not.
