I would invite anyone, tell me the strongest piece of evidence that you have that supports the theory of collusion because, Anderson, there just isn't, and we've been looking at this for going on 15 months now.

When you work for Donald Trump, you work for Donald Trump, that he has the final say about the campaign manager, above the chief of staff, above everybody else.

Thanks for having me here.

I think if we're doing a fair job and a thorough job, we ought to subpoena her.

What we're trying to get at is, is the president's actions and behavior in that question.

I think that is not the ideal arrangement.

I think the committee's recommendation to be under the Under Secretary of Political Affairs makes a lot more sense.

There is no question that for a lot of them, as you talk to them, you can see what a soul-crushing experience it is, and, as your dad wrote in his yearbook, I think many of these kids have the same feeling. They want to be fully accepted…

I thank the gentleman for reminding us of something that is often lost in this conversation and debate, which is the fundamental humanity of the people that we are talking about. Whether they have a green card, whether they are documented…

I thank the Congressman for sharing his dad's life story and what this country meant to him and the importance of coming up with a solution, a fix, as soon as possible.

I thank Congressman Correa. He is right. The DACA kids are going to school with our kids, are going to college with our kids, are in our workplaces. They are people who are contributing and whose futures hang in the balance, depending on…

I thank Congressman Soto for his wonderful words. He also brought up a few important things that I think we need to remember. The first is this issue of DREAMers, or undocumented immigrants, is often in the American debate reduced to the…

I thank the gentleman for being a champion on this issue. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Soto).

It could be one of a few things. First, it could be, possibly, that they didn't give the order for him that they were going to exert executive privilege.

He had this concern about the possibility of money laundering, this idea that you might have, for example, Russians who have some how acquired money illegally and they're needing to cleanse that money, and they're investing it in Trump…

It is important that, in our future, we have stronger cybersecurity cooperation, but also I think ultimately a cybersecurity mutual defense pact.

But the United States cannot be party to what amounts to State-paid murder compensation.

Some have suggested that perhaps we should have taken military action before to stop North Korea's nuclear program.

I thank Representative Tenney for joining me at this late hour to speak on this issue.

That must stop. Our Ambassador to the United Nations, Ambassador Haley, stated that this is a brutal, sustained campaign that appears to be an effort to cleanse the country of an ethnic minority.

But, as you know, this is an incredible time, a very tumultuous time for dispossessed peoples in the world.

Amendment to the amendment in the nature of a substitute to H.R. 425 offered by the Honorable Joaquin Castro, a Representative in Congress from the State of Texas.

I demand a recorded vote. The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Texas will be postponed. The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 83…

This is about treating people as humanely as possible. When profit is the main thing that drives the decisions on detention, incarceration, the conditions in which people are detained, then we are doing a severe injustice to those folks…

I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: At the end of division E (before the short title), insert the following: Sec. __. None of the funds made…
