Bob Menendez

I welcome it. I am glad--it seems like we had to do a lot of effort to get there.

Did the President at this meeting call upon President Putin to withdraw from Crimea and eastern Ukraine?

Did the President tell you that he discussed relaxing Russia sanctions or not? Yes or no?

Did he tell you what he and President Putin discussed in their 2-hour closed door meeting in Helsinki?

When the President meets alone with President Putin, it allows the Kremlin-sponsored state media and the Russian Ministry of Defense to provide more information

A reality TV summit that was little more than a photo op with a brutal dictator.

It seems to have taken a three-ring circus of a debacle of a meeting with President Putin.

I applaud you for making this the first of a series of rigorous oversight hearings on Russia.

I am very pleased to join with the distinguished Democratic leader in coauthoring this resolution.

You were a significant architect of the Trump administration's response in Puerto Rico, which was, at best, botched and incompetent.

The Administration unjustifiably withheld the loan from Puerto Rico, arguing that it had a cash balance at the end of 2017 and, therefore, did not need the money.

You should know that. You know that.

How long have they been waiting there?

How many potential asylum seekers are waiting on the other side--have waited, have presented themselves formally to a port of entry, but cannot be processed because of capacity issues?

That would be the only reason they would have been separated?

None at a port of entry? You are telling me none at a port of entry was separated?

On June 18th, Secretary Nielsen said that if an adult enters at a port of entry and claims asylum, they will not face prosecution for illegal entry.

Now, you have made time to weaken Wall Street oversight by revisiting capital rules, revisiting leverage rules, proposing changes to the Volcker Rule.

When we passed Dodd-Frank, we included language to ban incentive-based compensation practices that reward senior executives for irresponsible risk taking.

Can we trust the United States?

Is it the position of the Roundtable that these tariffs are in the national interest?

The use of Section 232 in this case was entirely inappropriate.

I regret that you were sent here, because I do not think that you are really in the mix, here, on this issue.

What is the strategy to get there? Tariffs slapped in a--in the action that the President has done then gets retaliatory tariffs.

The problem is, is that, instead of building a coalition that was willing and wanting to confront China through the international forums that we could execute through, we attack them.
