Our enemies are building up and we are going down and that is a formula for more war, not less.

In the next 5 years, our defense spending, particularly for the Navy, will be below 3 percent GDP, the lowest in modern history.

This budget represents irresponsibility, in my view, in terms of what the threats are facing this Nation.

There is no way you will ever convince me that going to about 2.5 to 2.6 percent of GDP on defense makes sense given the threats we face.

the number one job of this Congress, every Congress is to defend the Nation, and these budgets are woefully inadequate to the task.

We need more--we need a bigger Navy, not a smaller Navy.

I can`t assure the American people there`s any law we can pass to stop this shooting.

Our withdrawal has made us a lot less aware of the threat coming from Afghanistan than before we withdrew.

So, look, all I want you to do is this. I want you to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we need, because we won the state.

The DAF shares your commitment to Israel's security, and the need for a refueling fleet to ensure it.

I can't say it any better. Just to wrap this up, I believe that if there were a vote tomorrow designating Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, we would get 90 votes in the U.S. Senate. I will ask Senator Whitehouse to comment on that. I…

we will get into this in a minute, but I want to respond to something that was said just a few minutes ago. What would it cost America if Putin continues to slaughter Ukraine and gets away with it? What kind of world do you want to live…

I ask unanimous consent to enter into a colloquy with my colleagues Senator Whitehouse and Senator Blumenthal. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.

Number one, Senator Whitehouse has been talking about this 3 years that I know of. Long before Putin invaded Ukraine, when we were in charge of the Judiciary Committee, we had several hearings about autocracy, about ill-gotten gains…

Let us vote on it. I am welcoming a debate and a vote.

What this does, there will be a rallying effect for the country says we`re better than this.

Because the future of the country hangs in the balance.

I do not want to sunset it, as some people are talking about.

Raffensperger said he was stunned that Graham appeared to suggest that he find a way to toss legally cast ballots.

He plays the TV game and he went too far here. That rally didn’t help, talking about primarying in Liz. He created a sense of revenge.

Totally, he’ll maybe the best person to have, right? I mean, how mad can you get at Joe Biden?

We need to reform Medicare, not invite a bunch of people onto the system that would sink it.

Delay in getting medical tests and treatments: 70 percent say they would oppose a system that created greater delay.

If you think it is hard to get to see a doctor now, Medicare for All would institute delays that I think would be unacceptable.

Let us start with this idea. We should be voting on this. We should not be talking about it any longer. Let us vote.
