this morning, I am going to announce my decision on Judge Jackson's nomination to the Supreme Court. I will oppose her, and I will vote no. My decision is based upon her record of judicial activism, flawed sentencing methodology regarding…

If there`s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say, Lindsey Graham said, let`s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination, and you could use my words…

I said, after Kavanaugh, the rules have changed for me. The whole game has changed.

If there’s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say, Lindsey Graham said, let’s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination.

I think she`s qualified. I think I try to be somewhat consistent here. I think she`s qualified for the job. She has a different philosophy than I do.

Her record is overwhelming in its lack of a steady judicial philosophy and a tendency to achieve outcomes in spite of what the law requires or common sense would dictate.

If the shoe were on the other foot, they would do this in a New York minute.

Unfortunately, I do not believe that has materialized either, that not only his budget proposals but his economic proposals on the domestic front would be the largest power grab in modern American history.

let's have a debate on the budget and vote on it, and I think that would be good for the country.

I think the explosion you see at the border is about to get worse if we repeal Title 42 authority.

This budget does not reflect the reality of the challenges we face.

this budget puts us on a path to spend less on defense, GDP-wise, in the modern history of America

There is an effort ongoing to do a new Iranian nuclear deal, giving the Ayatollah, who I think is a religious Nazi, more cash and very little in return.

You have got an invasion of illegal immigrants coming across our border, and if you repeal Title 42 deportation authority regarding COVID, then you will have just an absolutely overwhelming wave of legal immigration this summer.

The budget regarding the defense needs of this country is woefully inadequate and dangerous.

I would like to see how many of my Democratic colleagues would vote for this budget.

I think this budget would make the problems at the pump enormously worse.

I would just say, with all due respect, things are not going well here at home and abroad, and policies do matter.

The world is on fire, and if you do not believe me, turn on your television, inflation is rampant, and we are more dependent on bad actors for our energy needs than ever.

this budget has got it all wrong.

You have to ask yourself, I mean, the threats we face, are they getting smaller or larger?

I do not see the world getting safer any time soon, and we had one heck of a fight to increase defense spending in the last omnibus negotiations.

Elections have consequences.
