Mark Warner

Can you commit to ensuring that this Committee will be provided with all information requested pursuant to our ongoing Russia investigation?

I look forward to supporting your nominations and ensuring their consideration without delay.

We will ask difficult and probing questions of you, and your staff, and we expect honest, complete responses.

I trust that you will lead the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community's Office with integrity.

I trust that you will provide sound legal counsel and judgment and will speak truth to power.

How do we get that right with also making sure that there are appropriate financial products for the underbanked?

How do we get that balance right between being able to see patterns but still protect consumers' information?

Let the record show that this is the second of one of these hearings.

We have successfully pressed for the full accounting of Russian cyber efforts to target our state election systems.

I just have to tell you, as someone who for a long time did accept the premise that we need to do the R&D here, that argument has run thin with me as we have seen Americans disproportionately bear this burden.

An issue that Senator Isakson and I have been working on for a long time is advanced care planning and end-of-life issues.

I would hope that we would realize that some of those pilots may--and I know we might have a disagreements on this one--include mandatory pilots, because too often those who are on the voluntary system are the ones who have already been…

I have been concerned that in many ways Americans pay for the R&D, for drug pricing for the whole world.

I would hope, Mr. Chairman, that we could take a look at this and maybe get ahead of it rather than chasing the issue after the fact.

We are about to be overwhelmed with bitcoin and other kind of cryptocurrencies. How are we preparing...

But are those industries fighting back against--I would think they do not...

How do we get that right? Having seen a great deal of Russian activity in terms of using real estate...

I thought I was also hearing, similar to what Mr. Baer has said, that, you know, we need to move from this rules-based approach to a more collaborative approach.

Vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee agrees with Steve Bannon on at least one issue that the Trump campaign should have told the FBI about that Trump Tower meeting.

We're still committed to getting all of the facts, doing it as quickly as possible but doing it in a way that's thorough and complete so that we can then present our case and more importantly our findings to the American people so they…

I think Mr. Bannon should testify before us or before Mr. Mueller. Clearly, if he's going to make these kind of allegations, I'd like to know under what basis.

I agree that there does seem to be a lot of smoke screens in terms of certain members of the House and others attacking the integrity of Bob Mueller or attacking for that matter the FBI and the Justice Department.

I believe it is up to every member of this institution, Republican or Democrat, to make a clear and unambiguous statement that any attempt by this president to remove special counsel Mueller from his position or to pardon key witnesses in…

Do not fire Mueller, do not pardon witnesses, do not interfere, or risk the constitutional crisis.

First of all, I thank my friend, the Senator from Rhode Island, for two things--one, for being a constant voice on the need for us to diversify our energy sources and supplies and for recognizing the enormous challenge around climate…
