I appreciate the fact that the gentleman from California and I have met with the then-leader of Iraq. Neither the gentleman from California nor I cared for the man. He was the Prime Minister of Iraq. He did a great deal of damage to Iraq…
I appreciate very much my friend from California, Dana Rohrabacher, making the point that he did. There is nothing either sinister, wrong, criminal, improper when someone is engaged in an election or when someone is not engaged in an…
All too often, we have seen with the LCWF that it has, in my opinion, been abused.
It has been interesting to hear all the rhetoric about Republican efforts that a majority of Americans have wanted us to take. Going back to even before ObamaCare was passed, the majority of Americans didn't want ObamaCare passed. I have…
The listing of nonnative species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) is redundant and counter-productive to conservation efforts for endangered species.
I thank you very much for sponsoring H.R. 2603, 'Saving America's Vulnerable and Endangered Species Act.'
I thank all my fellow Members that are speaking up on this very important issue. I appreciate Dr. Murphy taking the lead. It is something that has not gotten enough attention. We continue to have people dying, and we need to deal with the…
I have to say that it is a privilege and it is good for the House and good for America when Judge Ted Poe is on the floor making a case. He was a great judge, a great prosecutor before that, and we will always need his voice making a case…
I am sure it would be great to have at least some of those folks that are as allegiant to you as they were to the Obama administration.
At this time, I yield to the gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Palmer) to finish his statement.
I just want to thank my friend for pointing out the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. One thing about that group, when I was a judge, or assistant DA, if you needed somebody's banking records, then you would have to get sworn…
I appreciate my colleagues' tribute to the victims of that terrible tragic murder spree by a radical Islamist who said he was doing it for the Islamic State. The attorney general herself indicated that we have a tape of him saying he is…
I thank my friend from Texas, a great, noble tribute. I wish that it were I who was standing here to say glowing things about people that have been running the FBI; but President Trump as a candidate said he wanted to come drain the swamp…
It is indeed an honor to come before and stand before the Speaker and stand on this floor where so much great debate has occurred over the decades, even back to 150 years ago. Now, I have been heard to say over the last few days a number…

It is always an honor to be here. I do greatly appreciate my friend from Hawaii, her views. I know she is a person of integrity; calls them like she sees them. I appreciate her very much. There are just a number of things that really need…
Do you know what the drug cartels call Homeland Security? They call us logistics.
Dr. McHugh is a man who knows the medical science, not some idea that fleets by that may be gone tomorrow about someone's sexuality. Dr. McHugh says: ``The transgendered suffer a disorder of `assumption' like those in other disorders…
I thank my friend from Florida for those remarks. Mr. Gaetz represents the First District of Florida, a brother in arms, since I represent the First District of Texas. We are very grateful for Brian Mast and what he has given for his…
I appreciate those important observations. I would like to point out something that is not getting enough attention, as the media seems to be driven over issues like charge of misdemeanor assault on a reporter, or a Russian connection…
