I think that one of the best things we can do, and it is a longer-term solution but I also think it is the most effective chance we have here, is to buttress civil society organizations in Africa.

I thank Chairwoman Velazquez and Ranking Member Chabot for this opportunity as a freshman. It doesn't escape me that you all have allowed me to move forward with a meaningful piece of legislation as a freshman, and I can assure you that…

The United States Congress needs to get back to work. We need to start working on the issues that deal with our constituents. One of those that is of great concern in Tennessee is invasive Asian carp. They are a nuisance in too many of our…

It just strikes me, again this is not in my notes, just how heartless they are and just their ambition for world domination.

I am not sure which is which, but it disgusts me that the communists are taking full advantage of this.

That is a huge disparity and that troubles me greatly.

I am concerned about Beijing's mishandling of the COVID-19, the CCP subsequent disinformation campaign.

I do not like Putin. I think he is a thug.

I think it is pretty much known that Putin is a thug.

Was this homegrown? Do you think it is homegrown or is it imported or is it through the internet?

Well, thank you. I have run over my time, but if you ever catch me in the hall, I will show you a cool picture of my mama.

I think that is ridiculous. It is clear to me that we lack discipline when it comes to responsibly spending hard earned taxpayer dollars.
