More Americans are being poisoned by fentanyl from Mexico in a single year than we lost in the entire Vietnam War.

I want to introduce into the record a State Department travel advisory map that tells you where to go and not to go in Mexico.

Do you agree it is now time to change our policy because it is not working? Or do you think it is working?

How about this idea. Rather than just interdicting at the border, we go to the source and declare Mexican drug cartels foreign terrorist organizations under U.S. law.

Through the Wagner Group, Russia committed immense war crimes in Syria.

I think now is the time, Mr. Secretary, to label Russia state sponsor of terrorism, because they are.

They are terrorists. They are wreaking havoc all over Africa.

Are you going to designate Russia a state sponsor of terrorism under U.S. law? Do you intend to do that?

I don't know how much more we can do to help you in that regard.

I think China just agreed to buy oil, as much as Russia can supply.

I would encourage you, that if he came here, we should turn him over.

There is an arrest warrant for Putin by the ICC, for kidnapping children in Ukraine, and taking them to Russia.

I think the President said he thought that was a sound approach.

We need to appropriate money directly to counter the influence of China.

Our men and women of the State Department, they are heroes in their own way.

Senator Menendez and I, and many others have pushed for a $2 million authorization for Taiwan's defense needs.

Soft power, to me, is just as important as hard power, and many times even more important.

Isn't it time for us to view the world through the lens, frankly, of the beginnings, the early stages of a geopolitical conflict?

Haven't we now reached a point where, frankly, we have to understand we are entering a period of geopolitical competition bordering on conflict?

More Americans are being poisoned by fentanyl from Mexico in a single year than we lost in the entire Vietnam War.

I would say our policy is not working.

They are terrorists. They are wreaking havoc all over Africa.

Do you agree with the following statement: that fentanyl coming from Mexico is killing Americans by the tens of thousands?

I think now is the time, Mr. Secretary, to label Russia state sponsor of terrorism, because they are.

Are there drug cartels in control of parts of Mexico, not the Government of Mexico?
