The language that we passed in our National Defense Authorization Act authorizes this type of cooperation between Taiwan and the United States on the co-production of UAV systems.

I was very optimistic about Taiwan and the United States jointly producing drones.

AUKUS, the Taiwan-U.S. drone initiative and support from Japan and the Philippines, which McCaul described as 'very concerned,' would provide the deterrence needed to stop Chinese President Xi Jinping from pursuing what McCaul called 'a…

I'm very bullish. I'm very optimistic.

It's all interconnected.

Those certifications are important with the United States government.

You don't want your supply chain compromised by your adversary.

I think we can do it by sectors. They do it by companies now.

I still believe, Margaret, there are many, on both sides of the aisle, a majority of the majorities in support of this.

I think, if you look at the flight pattern of the balloon, it tells a story as to what the Chinese were up to as they controlled this aircraft throughout the United States.

I think he’s manipulating the president, as a KGB officer would.

I’m hopeful that Trump is waking up to the fact that Putin is not negotiating in good faith.

We’ve never seen anything like this in recent times. And so, what I’m concerned about is that the escalation here and the temperature rising, we got to be very careful not to be on the precipice of a World War III.

With all deference to the president, I don’t think that was a mistake. I think Putin is testing the resolve of NATO.

I never had any good faith anticipation of these negotiations. Putin is a KGB once and always.

This tragedy didn’t have to happen. As my 2024 report into the Afghanistan withdrawal revealed, the Biden admin prioritized optics over security at every step of the way — putting servicemembers, State Department employees, and innocent…
