In my opinion, no more funds should be allocated to these hemorrhaging money pits.

I think that in these really frugal times... we perhaps could spend our money better.

I have spoken loudly and strongly and will continue to do so for what we now call community grants.

I would urge the administration to stop spending money on those projects.

Should we really be investing in something that is so obviously now becoming visibly nonviable?

You just heard the words of Benjamin Franklin from my good friend Tom McClintock, that those who would give up freedom for safety deserve neither. I hope that we aren't marked in history as the generation of Congress that was willing to…

First and foremost Jonathan Diller is an American hero, a hero whose wife will now have to grow old without a husband who she loved so much, a hero whose 1-year-old son will grow up without a dad. Yet, what makes this tragedy so…

By the way, you are all welcome to come down to Cape May in the summer. It is spectacular.

It is time for the Coast Guard to develop a world-class training facility that promotes recruitment and retention.

The Training Center Cape May is the beating heart of the Coast Guard community.

I am here to request your Subcommittee to fund investments at the United States Coast Guard Training Center in Cape May for the fiscal year 2025.

I want to thank the Chair for having this hearing today. It's something we need to talk about.

It is fundamentally unfair, it is wrong, and it is in no way, in no way, nobody should kid themselves, our founding fathers never, ever envisioned what is happening now with these agencies.

It's unfair, and I believe it's un-American.

Our Federal agencies have become emboldened in many ways and in many ways unchecked. Too often they abuse this power.

President Biden believed President Obama's 2009 troop surge was a mistake on par with Vietnam...

In fact, in their February 16th meeting which has been alluded to earlier, isn't it true that President Biden read aloud and nearly verbatim classified information regarding the actions and views of U.S. Military leaders and the CIA…

the answer is yes. Special Counsel Hur, these two reports are the culmination in my mind of the Department of Justice's two standards, two standards.

Significant evidence. I would argue that you also had significant evidence surrounding the retention of these documents, the storage of these documents, and even though there was a bit of a disconnect between what a reasonable juror could…

It is unfortunate that we have a Department of Justice that will treat one person one way and somebody else a different way. It is a sad day for America.

I thank the chairman for yielding. Laken Riley is dead because of Joe Biden's policies. There are no words that I can say that will bring her back to life. There are no words that will bring back State Trooper Christopher Gadd. There are…

Under the Biden Administration more than eight million illegal entries have changed and come into our country.

This administration's policies have not only failed the law, they failed Americans.

I don't give a damn if you are a Republican or a Democrat. Don't pretend to do something and do nothing.

The President, this President, President Biden changed that. Let's just tell the real story of what happened.
