A strong NATO is essential, especially given the level of aggression from Russia not seen since the Cold War.

Thank you for letting us solve a problem.

So I am Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, and there are people on our staff that are just outstanding, finest people I have ever worked with in my life.

If we do not like something the President does... we should then block nominees that we like.

I think I heard you earlier talk about inflation, and obviously we are, you know, at full employment.

I hope we can get to a rule-based purpose, because at the end of the day we seem to have revisited everything that was already completed, but yet we cannot get this one going.

I just don't like the President's comments made us look as a nation more like a pushover. And I was disappointed in that. I just don't know what it is about the President that continues to deny that that occurred.

They are damaging our international relationships that we have spent decades building.

So if you all do not like this, what would you do?

I appreciate you doing that.

I think you know I began--my first bill, I wound down both institutions.

We may leave a bill behind that others may pick up at some point.

I think your discussion about having one foot in one camp and one foot in another is true.

They have done an outstanding job.

I love seeing this bipartisanship, because I cut my teeth on the first OPIC reauthorization as a House staffer in 1974.
