We will squash this blatant attempt at voter suppression.

I don't see how you get the necessary Democrat votes… that would get them to 60.

I think we’ll get it done, but there are some strong personalities involved.

Never underestimate the ability of Congress to screw up a sure thing.

That is how intelligence becomes politicized, how inconvenient facts disappear, how agencies charged with protecting our democracy instead become tools to manipulate it, and how Americans are left more vulnerable to a terrorist attack.

It is that he appears to have been selected precisely because the White House believes he will provide the narrative it wants, not the intelligence we need.

The concern is not only that Mr. Pulte lacks the ‘extensive national security experience’ required by statute for the job, which was created after intelligence failures led to the deaths of thousands of Americans on 9/11.

Americans have already seen Mr. Pulte use the powers of his office at the Federal Housing Finance Agency to pursue the president’s grievances and lend credibility to dubious prosecutions of President Trump’s perceived political opponents.

Americans have every reason to worry about what happens when the official charged with overseeing everything from counterterrorism to foreign election threats is chosen for his willingness to advance the president’s political agenda rather…

Rather than selecting a respected national security professional capable of delivering independent judgments, the president has chosen an official who has demonstrated not just willingness but eagerness to use the authorities of government…

This appointment speaks volumes about what this president expects from the nation’s top intelligence official.

It feels like his only qualification is he’s willing to do whatever Donald Trump wants.

As Americans struggle with the rising cost of gas, groceries, housing, and health care, President Trump's priorities for taxpayer dollars are completely detached from the challenges families face every day.

I am proud of the Senate Intelligence Committee’s bipartisan legislation to conduct meaningful oversight of the nation’s intelligence agencies, as well as provide them with the tools and authorities they need to do their job to keep…

Removing economic and geographic barriers to entry for underrepresented populations in clinical trials will result in better treatments and cures for patients and all Americans.

Today’s Senate passage of the Stop Stealing our Chips Act is an important step toward strengthening our export control system and protecting America’s national security.

Donald Trump has made clear that he intends to turn our justice system into a weapon for punishing and silencing his critics.

What we have done – let me also point out, Margaret, by the Trump administration releasing sanctions on Russian oil, that's $10 billion to Putin.

I would describe it as significant.

The ability to protect our soldiers would require, every estimate I have seen, at least 10,000 troops guarding a perimeter.

No American should forget this is a war of choice chosen by the president.

This is a war of choice chosen by the president.

This is extraordinarily complicated. The fact that the president acts like he's surprised the Iranians closed the strait or would attack our Gulf allies, anybody who would have read the intelligence would've known that was first.

We’ve got to get an FBI that is back focused on protecting the homeland.
