Mark, just checking in as time continues to count down. Eleven days to January 6th and 25 days to inauguration. We've got to get going.

Supreme Court Justices are already protected. Really? Really? They are already protected? The Speaker said no one is in danger, no one is in danger after an assassination attempt. I don't know if I would feel very protected. On the very…

Representative Cheney said that they have specific evidence that proves this claim.

I thank the gentlewoman for her comments. Like I said, if you have ever seen reality TV, you know in just a couple episodes it is not really reality. Now, I don't know how many of these you will go through this evening, and we just have a…

I thank the gentleman from Texas. He is absolutely right. Look, I don't think it is a mystery that many of us on this side of the aisle have no love for the FBI Director. It would be my choice to remove him immediately and get somebody…

I thank the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Biggs). Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Nehls).

Reality TV. I think most of us are familiar with reality TV. You are going to see some of that tonight. Now, when reality TV first started, people watched that, they were enthusiastic about it, maybe a little intoxicated at times. I don't…

I thank the gentleman for his comments. In the remaining 40 seconds I have, I will close by saying every day Americans wake up and they think it can't get any worse, yet somehow every day there is something new that actually makes it…

Are we going to find out if they got ordered to do that by the Speaker or by the leader in the Senate? Are we going to find that out tonight?

If I could interject for just a moment, who is in charge of security here in the House of Representatives?

On Roll Call No. 252, I mistakenly voted ``no'' when I intended to vote ``yes''. Members Recorded Pursuant to House Resolution 8, 117th Congress Barragan (Beyer) Bass (Blunt Rochester) Boebert (Gaetz) Brooks (Fleischmann) Brown (OH)…

I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``nay'' on rollcall No. 233.

I thank my friend, the good gentleman from Texas for yielding. I think that what most people don't understand--and some even in this body--is that when you think about operational control of the border, you are assuming that the…

Into the country but without the view of the cameras, without the access of the American people in to see what is happening in their country. That is the chain-link fence around it, without the view of what is happening in every single…

You are absolutely right, Mr. Roy. The American people at least deserve the debate. Five hours, ladies and gentlemen, 5 hours for $40 billion. People around here complain about all kinds of things.

I had a problem with $40 billion with 5 hours, 5 hours of consideration for $40 billion. When we took the text to the staff and asked them about this line, what is this $300 million, and they said, Well, we don't know. And we are expected…

I thank the gentleman from Texas for allowing me to be part of this Special Order and speak on behalf of and fight on behalf of the American people that are struggling right now.

That is exactly right. Madam Speaker, the American people see and are feeling it every single day when they go to the gas pumps, when they have got to get their kids to soccer games and multiple activities, driving back and forth, and they…

I am aware of that. Madam Speaker, right here on this floor, the President came and gave his State of the Union and said he wanted to secure the border. That is what the President said, he wanted to secure the border. Yet, the fentanyl…

Right. That is a problem. But $40 billion, no problem. Meanwhile, our citizens, the citizens that I represent, they are having a hard time figuring out, do they pay their insurance, do they pay their mortgage? I talk to people on a regular…

One of the biggest mines in the world, the biggest mine in the world. Slave labor, child slave labor, right? We are talking about saving the rainforest, meanwhile they are cutting all this stuff down to mine these minerals, so we can feel…

And hope you can charge. And I sure hope you have the time to sit there and charge, right? It is not like filling it up at the gas station and you get back on the road and keep going and make it in a reasonable amount of time. The…

For many Americans, what seems to be happening or what they believe right now is happening is what appears to them is, we`re replacing natural-born American, native-born Americans to permanently transform the political landscape of this…

The fact that they sent it to the press before they sent it to the members is just proof it's all about headlines. This whole thing's a charade.

I thank the good gentleman and all my colleagues. Our time is almost over, but I just want to reiterate that we--these Members here and many others on this side of the aisle, in particular--stand for life. We stand for the Constitution…
