I would just point out that I find it interesting. First, we had Mr. Cicilline, the chair of the subcommittee say that DOJ and FTC don't get the money. It has to be appropriated next year. But then the chairman of the full committee, Mr. Nadler, said we know how the money is going to be spent. It is going to be spent on antitrust enforcement. It can't be both. {time} 1315 So it can't be both. We know what is going to happen. This money is going to wind up in DOJ and FTC, and we know their track record in how they have been treating the American citizen. But I find it interesting that the Democrats can't even get their argument straight which just reinforces why this bill should not pass, because in the end it is more money for the Department of Justice--the same Department of Justice that has done their egregious actions over the last several months. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Gohmert) who is a former judge, a great member of the Judiciary Committee, and a friend of mine.
