Somewhere, somehow you have to say, what are these guys thinking, what are these guys and women doing?

We are talking about impeaching you with 50 something, I don't know, 100 days left in our term.

We keep grandstanding while America is burning.

I believe that there are no grounds, if we were to move in that direction, for any form of impeachment.

When you made mistakes, you owned up to it. Is that correct?

There are things that, again, in retrospect...

I think it is also important to note, again, that this is not an impeachment hearing.

Thank you, Commissioner, very much.

So you are committed as a public servant to ensure that we get all the information that we need to have. Is that not correct?

I do think getting guns off the street will help all of you, including officers, as we move toward dealing with this question of police community relations.

I support you in that.

I want to commend to the Major Chiefs, the legislation that we submitted to a number of individuals called the Law Enforcement Trust and Integrity Act.

It is time for us to rethink how we prevent terrorism.

Taking action to prevent terrorists from having access to assault weapons would be a good start.

Therefore, I will not concede that our city streets--the places where our constituents live, work, and play--are at risk of becoming battlegrounds like Syria and Afghanistan.

The vetting process is a building block process coming forward, I think that is important for our constituents to know

So they are not on the highway hailing a cab and then getting on an airplane to the United States?

Let me thank the Chairman and Ranking Member for continuing to project for the American people in both reality and our actions the importance of oversight as it relates to the security and safety of the American people.

You want to think of them as your friend.

I actually invited him myself this morning to come down to the Southern Border in Arizona and see that it is very different than Texas.

I apologize. May I just put into the record 'Moving the Line of Scrimmage,' ask unanimous consent.

I want to thank the witnesses. I want to thank the Chairman. She has been enormously kind.

We must ensure that we protect the basic values that we hold dear to our Nation.

I don't know whether, Madam Chair, I could encourage you with a smile to join me on comprehensive immigration reform, which is certainly still there.

That is a shameful practice in this country and it must come to an end.
