The American people smell a rat here.

I find it interesting that people not related at all to your mission... I would think the FBI would know best what its mission requirements are.

I hope you do. I am wondering, was there any outside input into that decision from anyone in the Maryland elected delegation, or the Virginia delegation, or OMB?

So, you are saying the person--wait, the person whose name was redacted here [indicating report] made the decision to replace themselves with Ms. Albert?

It seems to me that Ms. Albert was brought in to fix the situation, to get the result that was wanted.

I think that the Regional Commissioner was impartial because on the previous report--I know you don't have it in front of you, but I am showing it to you [indicating report]--the name of that person is redacted, right?

But when the Trump Administration attempted to propose a more realistic solution, including a P3, the Democrats cried foul.

This whole process started more than 15 years ago, but there hasn't even been a shovel in the ground.

I will say upfront I am not convinced the FBI needs a brand new building.

Ironically, if it wasn't for the bureaucratic maze and politics, right now there would already be a new FBI headquarters in Maryland or Virginia.

This whole process started more than 15 years ago.

I am not convinced the FBI needs a brandnew building.

I thank my good friend, the gentleman on the other side of the aisle, but, again, transparency is key. Universities have become, unfortunately, as we have seen in our public media on this very day and on these very days, hotspots for…

Why the urgency from the Biden Department of Education to suddenly upend 50 years of civil-rights protections for biological women?

The law does not care about feelings. The law is the law, so that we have a method of American constitutional governance.

To say that somehow 'sex,' when it was adopted, was somehow ambiguous is just patently untrue.

This proposal complicates it.

I think the best and different approach would be to leave Title IX alone as it was originally intended to be interpreted.

At no point was sex expanded to include gender identity.

The fact of the matter is just the second of these two rules is patently unconstitutional and will not survive a legal challenge.

This Administration is keen to divest parents of their constitutional authority to oversee the care and upbringing of their children at every turn.

I assure you it is real. And it is dated December 5th of 2023.

That is our job. Our job is to defend this Constitution. My constituents, my bosses, know I carry one with me every day. It is a piece of paper, Mr. Speaker. It cannot defend itself. It relies on the integrity, fortitude, courage, and…

Before I go, I will say that the gentleman from Texas is right. We have to unite so that we can be effective against these forces of evil that are destroying the American Dream. It is not uniting for the sake of uniting. It is uniting…

It's extremely inhumane.
