It’s only wrong to shut our government down, and I’m relieved … the people now that are going to get paid and fed.

It's not a weakness.

It's always been wrong for us to shut the government down.

I want to be a voice saying, 'hey, look, that's a lie. I don't know what your recovery looks like, but as long as you stay in it, I promise you you will get better.'

I suffered from depression and I made a recovery and I won an election.

What exactly am I guilty of?

My party crossed a line.

It’s an absolute failure what occurred here for the last month.

We can’t even get our sh*t together and just open up our government.

Some people think now we have to double down on those things or we must become more progressive or more extreme.

That’s absolutely not true.

I refuse to do those kinds of things because that kind of extreme kinds of rhetoric makes it easier for those kinds of extreme kinds of actions — even like what happened to poor Charlie Kirk.
