We have too many people thinking of any ridiculous pretext under the world not to do the obvious.

I think the implication was completely unwarranted without anything to back it up.

Half of the 86,000 were the way I described.

But the fact remains you release them.

Following the law is not politics, it is the rule of law, it is what American is supposed to do and what American is supposed to be about.

It is about enforcing the law. It is about following ----

This administration's failure to secure our border, enforce immigration laws, and hold criminal aliens accountable creates an ongoing threat to our public safety.

Something is wrong. Something needs to change.

And right now, today, is there law to prevent the IRS from doing that again to somebody else out there?

The bottom line is, they don't trust the IRS.

Is that a fair statement, that it was--would you call it persecution?

It's hard to find the IRS to be an agency we can trust.

This is the IRS that allowed documents to be destroyed, violating people's First Amendment liberties.

They're going to potentially use that and infringe on American citizens' Fourth Amendment liberties.

You've got time to harass conservative groups, ask them all kinds of intrusive questions, privacy-violating questions.

$385 billion that the--this is the fundamental mission of the Internal Revenue Service, is actually to collect the tax revenue due to the Federal Treasury.

It seems to me when we're talking about executive overreach, one of the things the legislative branch can do is impeach this guy.

I think that Commissioner Koskinen has lied to the Congress repeatedly and he should be impeached and removed from office.

Mr. Koskinen should have articles of impeachment move forward against him.

I think you should abolish the Joint Committee on Taxation.

Secondly, I think that Congress should consider repealing all general legislative authority delegated to Federal agencies.

First, I think Congress should abolish the House and Senate Appropriations Committees...

This is not a partisan issue. This is a--the Article I role of Congress is at--is at--very much at risk...

And, finally, I would urge the Committee and the Congress to enact something that the Supreme Court said existed...
