I do not know anybody on any side of any aisle in Washington who does not want better care, producing lower costs, with happier patients.

I wish you every success in the remaining days of your confirmation process.

we need your help and the help of our Republican colleagues to make sure that that all gets done aggressively and energetically.

I`d like to make sure that you are willing to look upstream from the actual occupants who assaulted the building.

It is a critical national security priority for us to do everything we can to degrade that dark economy so that the kleptocrats and the criminals and the autocrats do not find shelter in our rule-of-law sanctuaries.

I think this is important, not just because of the beneficial ownership reform that we did, but because there is a larger, in my view, clash of civilizations happening in the world.

I agree with President Biden's proposals to counter the tax competition, offshoring, and profit-shifting incentives within current law.

We are at this point engaged in a planetary experiment to create physical, biological, and chemical changes in the way earth operates that are unprecedented in human history.

I support these proposals and, if confirmed, look forward to working with President Biden and Congress to pursue these reforms.

With respect to January 6th, I`d like to make sure that you are willing to look upstream from the actual occupants who assaulted the building in the same way that in a drug case you would look upstream from the street dealers to try to…

I`m super jealous because if this case ever goes to trial, she`s going to have a real jury, and when she presents her case, if she is convincing, as damning in her presentation as the House managers were in the impeachment, she could very…

They`re in the position where if this were a regular trial, in front of a real jury, they`d be running to the prosecutors and saying, cut me a deal, please. Whatever it takes, get my guy out of here. You`ve crushed us.

Yeah, it`s -- it`s bad behavior. And it`s particularly bad behavior after the defense counsel have made those kind of silly accusations against Senator Leahy.

The house managers did such a good job of presenting this case, taking the broad sweep of this from the earliest days of Trump, you know, starting this scheme to claim that the election was going to be rigged, all the way up through the…

I fought constantly with the Obama administration about things that they did that would have actually damaged this process.
