Political Quotes

On the recordSeptember 10, 2025
I will address the topic of sexual violence, particularly with my female colleagues across the aisle. I have authored dozens of bills related to sexual violence, and very few of my Democratic colleagues will sign up and cosponsor them in a bipartisan way. Why is that? Is it because I don't want men in women's spaces? Probably. Is it because I say the word ``tranny''? Yes. Democrats don't want to protect women except for when it makes good on their narrative. In fact, when I gave a harrowing speech for 1 hour on the floor of this House earlier this year on February 10, as I talked about my personal experiences with sexual violence, not a single female Democratic colleague spoke up in defense of women who are victims and survivors of sexual violence. Mr. Chairman, I find it offensive, and I yield back the balance of my time.

I’m never gonna shut the door. I love the people of South Carolina. You only live once and, you know, if the people of South Carolina would like me to serve in that capacity, I’ll certainly take a look at it.

Saying national security isn’t your thing is like applying to be a lifeguard and saying water isn’t your thing.

Darline, darlin’, you are running for the United States Senate. National security isn’t just a thing. It is damn near the only thing.
