The idea that we're not going to enforce sanctions on Iran and let them export 80 billion dollars of energy to China to then use to fund terror operations is another foreign policy issue that, quite frankly, is troubling to me.

I cannot sit here on March 19th knowing what's going on in Ukraine now, knowing that we have an Article 5 responsibility.

If that is not an indication of a broken, broken policy and broken system, I do not know what it is.

Should we have gone after bin Laden in 2001 in that winter when we had him more or less from an intel standpoint? Yes. Should we have? I think yes.

That was total BS, and I would like to say the actual words, but I'm trying to not; I'm restraining myself.

We must act on it now because failure to do that will jeopardize in the future the lives of other brave American men and women.

I will stand to make sure that we do the 20-year investigation, so that they can get and find out what we did right; what we did wrong.

We cannot say, hey, we left them behind; we're not going to give them a visa to get out of there, right?

I believe that accountability ensures mistakes in the past are not repeated.

We need to do it not in a political way, but in a bipartisan way.

The American people deserve nothing less.

The State Department should have been talking to us, and they were not.
