Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, this is absurd. This is Fellini in the Congress. Comparing what Joe Biden did to what the other fellow that preceded him in office did in keeping documents in Mar-a-Lago in his bathroom and out in the fancy rooms where all of his billionaire friends go is like comparing somebody that writes a bad check by $2, an overdraft, to somebody who is a bank robber with guns, weapons, and machine guns going into banks and robbing money. Biden was a sympathetic figure, said Mr. Hur, a Republican, who Merrick Garland gave the duty to study that case. He was a sympathetic figure. You don't convict a crime unless there is guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Mr. Hur found there could not be guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. What the other fellow did, refusing to comply with requests to give the classified documents up, refusing and refusing and then having to have a search warrant to find them, hundreds of documents, not for the purpose of writing a book--for somebody who can't even read a book--was for purposes that we don't know. We don't know what they were used for, but they were taken illegally and improperly. Merrick Garland is an honorable and good man who should be in the College of Cardinals and not being tried for contempt by this Felliniesque---- The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.”
