The real threat to democracy is Joe Biden and Democrats who are attempting to remove President Trump from the ballot, because Joe Biden knows he can't win at the ballot box.
The American people understand that it was not a fair election. We had unconstitutional overreach.
The real threat to our democracy is these baseless witch hunt investigations and lawsuits against President Trump, whether it's Tish James or whether we see in the DC Circuit Court.
I have concerns about the treatment of January 6th hostages. I have concerns – we have a role in Congress of oversight over our treatments of prisoners. And I believe that we're seeing the weaponization of the federal government against…
In fact, in 2022, Democrats lost the House, and House Republicans ran on the issues that matter to the American people. We ran on securing the border. We ran on addressing the historic inflation, which the American people know is a result…
The House Education Committee is investigating these plagiarism allegations.
Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard's rules of bullying and harassment? Yes or no?
As a Harvard graduate myself, we have seen a failure of leadership from Claudine Gay, a failure of moral leadership.

Does that speech not cross that barrier? Does that speech not call for the genocide of Jews, and the elimination of Israel?
You understand that the use of the term intifada in the context of the Israeli Arab conflict is indeed a call for violent armed resistance against the State of Israel, including violence against civilians and the genocide of Jews.
Harvard ranks the lowest when it comes to protecting Jewish students. This is why I have called for your resignation.
Dr. Gay, a Harvard student calling for the mass murder of African Americans is not protected free speech at Harvard, correct?
Over 30 radical student organizations at Harvard released a joint statement outrageously claiming that Israel was entirely responsible for the Hamas terrorist attacks.
Instead of leading with moral clarity and condemning Hamas's terrorist attacks, university administrators at Harvard and other institutions failed their students.

I have called for the resignation of President Claudine Gay, and we will continue standing up with morale clarity.
I thank the chair for yielding me time. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of my legislation, the American Battlefield Protection Program Enhancement Act. I take the time to thank our chairman, Bruce Westerman, and the ranking member for…
