If this President now starts pardoning people that might have the goods on his bad deeds, even the most ardent supporters of this President, I hope that would make him stand up and stand for rule of law and not for rule of Trump.

The idea that Mr. Trump always tells the truth, I think that has been refuted on our most daily basis.

I think we shouldn't be surprised. Remember, Mr. Trump was a business guy that no American major bank would do business with because they didn't think he paid his debts or honored his word.

If Democrats were to take the House, obviously, a lot of them, you know, talking about the idea of possibly impeaching the President, is that something that the Democrats should pursue if in fact they do retake the House?

Well, let's see how this proceeds. But what can they say if they're trying to defend the President when the President's campaign manager guilty on eight counts and has got another trial in less than a month that will explore his ties to…

In a normal White House, when our country has been attacked, as it has been, in this bipartisan consensus, there would be someone designated in the White House as election security is a top matter.

We all need to stay focused. And that focus ought to extend...

Will you refute that story and say that all documents that the Committee has requested will be turned over to the Committee?

I need your public commitment today that those outstanding document requests we have to FinCEN will be met in a timely manner.

The truth is manipulating social media is both cheap and effective, and Putin and his cronies realize that.

One of the things that has been extraordinarily disturbing to me is we have had repeatedly top intelligence officials from the Trump administration indicate to us that they have not been told that election security ought to be a top…

Twenty-one months after the 2016 election and only 3 months before the 2018 elections, Russian-backed operatives continue to infiltrate and manipulate social media.

I think the political piece of this is really going to be relatively small compared to the overall threat.

Nothing less than the integrity of our democratic institutions, processes and ideals is at stake.

I think one of the earlier statements that were made was that each of these platforms, even as large as they are, really only look after their own content or their own usages.

I really want to thank all of you. And one of the things that we might be able to find consensus on, you know, is there more ability for us to urge, force, nudge the platforms in an anonymous way to share more data with independent…

I believe Senator Warner alluded to this in his recent policy proposals.

I feel like even when the platform companies are moving in the right direction, they're only doing it looking at their own universe.

This is one where there is no Democratic or Republican answer, since clearly the goal of our adversaries was not to favor one party over the other.

family obligations unfortunately have kept me from being present for the cloture vote today on the nomination of Britt Grant, of Georgia, to be a U.S. circuit judge for the Eleventh Circuit. I have grave concerns about Justice Grant's…

I guess what I would hope is, under Senator Portman's and Senator Cardin's leadership, if there was a way that we could get that down to, say, for every Federal dollar spent, Federal tax compliance goes up--if we spend 'X,' it goes up…

The comment I would make is, I am not sure you get to choose your credit report.

I believe that people moving forward may not have a single income stream, but multiple income streams.

I would look forward to working with you on changing that.

I applaud Senator Portman's legislation that actually authorizes VITA, long overdue.
