It is the job of this committee to get to the bottom of what is going on and we will do it.

It is not racist to say we have a problem at our Southern Border.

It is virtually impossible to cross the Southwest Border without first paying the cartels.

This committee's interim Phase One report is being published later today and makes all of this clear.

Last thing, without border security, we have no country.

The Southwest Border is wide open and the evidence is clear.

But none of this matters. If you notice, not one cartel has fallen.

The current unprecedented fentanyl poisoning crisis that's killing our kids at record levels is not a Red or Blue Issue. It's a Red, White, and Blue issue. We need all Americans to work together now to save lives.

10,000-plus Chinese nationals have been apprehended in fiscal year 2023, a massive 300 percent increase from the year prior.

It is with steadfast commitment that I stand before you today, knowing that there can be no appeasement or reasoning with this evil.

They will end when this administration starts fixing the problem.

Mass parole is against the laws passed by previous Congresses.

the people of Ukraine have certainly indicated by giving blood to every effort that they want a clear path to NATO membership.

This is the height of madness--releasing unvetted individuals from our Nation's most dangerous adversaries into our local communities.

I never used the word impeachment, and I am tired of this continual narrative falsely quoting me.

We just passed a border security bill that addresses all these issues.

This should terrify every American.

Asylum is the heart of our country trying to help people in need.

I just find it very, I guess, disorienting that we see suffering around us as a Nation, one of the wealthiest in the hemisphere, and that today we sit here not looking for solutions, but creating problems. Jesus Christ was a refugee.

That is why we are having the migration crisis, is we opened the border.
