Authoritarian regimes relish in the opportunity to shine a spotlight and even encourage challenges for the United States of America.

Seventeen CBP suicides in 1 year is absolutely intolerable.

I think it is clear from today's hearing that Secretary Mayorkas has been derelict in his duties to secure the homeland, but also derelict in his ability to protect CBP agents and DHS employees.

When you take the handcuffs from the police... and give criminals... more resources, things need to change.

I've always said that I support people coming into this country but coming through the front door.

I think we've handed complete operational control at the border to the cartels, and we have no idea what else is coming in.

We have literally allowed minor crimes... People often roll their eyes and say, you are fear-mongering.

I am a firm believer in community policing. I am a firm believer as well in the broken windows theory.

Congress should consider addressing these issues a top priority because reinforcing American police departments will reduce crime.

Let's work together, not as parties in politics, but as Americans, to keep this great Nation safe.

We must hold our police departments to a higher standard.

We owe law enforcement community a huge debt of gratitude.

They truly stand the line between good and evil.

I want to thank our Nation's police officers for putting their lives on the line each and every day.

Instead of focusing on our border, these amendments focused on challenge points, climate change, and about moments in a news cycle. Well, to my friends on the other side of the aisle, that news cycle is devastating to many, devastating to…

Censorship is antithetical to freedom. The antidote to speech that you do not like is more speech, and this is a fundamental premise of the First Amendment.

Because our whole purpose today is to talk about the American people's confidence in elections, and I think when we are allowing issues like this to take place throughout the country, it is quite a slap in the face to anybody's confidence.

Does anyone think this is a good idea?

Well, I will speak as a New Yorker and tell you that lens stinks because none of us see it as reasonable.

I would have to argue that. I am pretty confident that the victims that we have seen of fentanyl overdoses... they don't think it is just a news cycle.

When you took the oath to be the Secretary of Homeland Security, it is your job... you are failing Americans and you are failing your oath.

In what world do you think that housing migrants in a sports facility is a good idea?

Your lack of leadership has created not just the States along the border to be border States, every State in this great Nation has become a border State.

Your failures, your dereliction of duty, your failure to uphold the oath that you took to protect this homeland...

I will speak as a New Yorker and tell you that lens stinks because none of us see it as reasonable.
