Lindsey Graham

I think they are watching exactly what we do with our modernization programs and our presence programs.

I think it is important for us to lead, sir.

I think that we are in one of the toughest situations that we have faced in decades right now.

I think we need to stay until we see that mission accomplished.

I do believe that we have disagreements with our great ally over some of the approaches we take with the Kurdish forces in north Syria.

I do not see them changing in a positive way at all.

I do believe that the NATO nations are willing to follow our lead.

Is it fair to say that Russia had successfully dismembered the Ukraine?

Today I rise in recognition of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week. Millions of Americans across the country are suffering from eating disorders. It affects their health, their happiness, and can take their lives. I understand what…

What authority does he or she have to do that? Because prosecutorial discretion is not the legal basis.

The President has given legal status to how many million people who are here illegally?

Is there any court decision that would allow the President of the United States--any President--to issue an executive order to say that 3 million people here illegally now have legal status?

What limits would there be on a President, in terms of just giving legal status to people here illegally?

He did give legal status to millions of people who I am willing to deal with through the statutory process.

How bad is sequestration hurting your ability to defend the Nation and protect us domestically and internationally, if it goes back into effect?

Well, you can come and look at the damn thing.

We have paid $5 billion.

So is the situation for MOX, we just missed it really badly on MOX, in terms of actual cost?

If you run a private business, and somebody created a project and you are $5 billion into it, and you find out it actually costs three times more than everybody thought, would you fire somebody?

This is a monumental decision for the country and certainly South Carolina.

In 2016, the NDAA act said that you needed to rebaseline this project.

My time is up, but it seems to me that we started a project that apparently nobody knows if it even works. Somebody should be fired for that.

In 2010, we signed an agreement with the Russians to take the 34 metric tons of excess plutonium and put it through the MOX system.

Well, it cost $5 billion, I can promise you that.

So let's see if I got this. We're going to change the entire program, then we're going to go to the Russians and see if they're okay with it? Is that the plan?
