Government broke it; government must fix it.

If we act selectively for political reasons, then we become a part of the problem.

Governor Snyder should have to answer for his decisions.

I have a very great interest in the rules-making process.

You have got to understand why it is frustrating to have documents that we have been told we will receive piecemealed out.

The further you get outside of this Beltway... the more frustration there is that the people have lost control.

You do not represent the American people. We are the only ones elected to represent the American people.

Do you plan on giving us the documents or are you going to come talk to us and say you are still not going to get them to us and we need to talk more?

The lady who started the organization True the Vote, the lady who was audited both personally and her business by the IRS, was visited by the EPA, the ATF, the FBI, and OSHA, all while she was simply trying to clean up voter registration…

Did you tell the White House before the October 23 letter came to the chairman saying no one was going to be prosecuted?

Can you tell me who at the IRS was exercising that poor judgment?

But you can give us something and you haven't given us anything. That is the point.

Now, we have heard that for 3-1/2 years.

So it could be much higher than 113?

But do we know a number?

And yet you are the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Screening Coordination... and you can't give us one single number to some, I think, pretty basic questions?

How many American citizens are on that list right now? Can you give me that number?

If you want to see a change, if you like a different public policy, if you want to see things done differently, our Framers have put forward a process, and that is you introduce a bill, you fight for it, and you try to get it passed into…

The reversal that the OLC put forward was contrary to a plain reading of the statute, the intent of Congress in passing the law.

We don't simply make up laws by one attorney at the Department of Justice down in the bowels there at the Department of Justice.

You tell the American people one thing, you tell your family an entirely different story. You can live with the protest about a video. That won't hurt you. But a terrorist attack will.

So are you saying Mr. Koskinen had substantial evidence of mismanagement when he didn't inform Congress?

If it wasn't deliberate intent to destroy and conceal, what was it?

Mr. Koskinen testified twice in front of Congress and did not disclose the fact that they knew her hard drive had crashed.

If a private citizen gets an audit notice from the IRS and then 10 months later they destroy the evidence, are they going to be prosecuted?
