No, I think that the BLS has been the gold standard for years, viewed not only in this country, but around the world.

I have done these visits to our intel facilities for the 10 plus years I've either been Chair or Vice Chair of the Intelligence Committee.

No briefing on this?

Do you accept the fact that a million Americans died from COVID?

How the hell did this happen?

Is congressional oversight dead?

You purge your independent intelligence community and make them loyal not to a constitution but something else.

blocking and setting arbitrary conditions on these sessions sets a dangerous precedent, calling into question whether oversight is now allowed only when it pleases the far-right fringe.

a nakedly political decision that undermines the dedicated, nonpartisan staff at NGA and threatens the principle of civilian oversight that protects our national security.

Let me be clear: I will never be deterred from carrying out my constitutional responsibilities.

When expertise is cast aside and intelligence is distorted or silenced, our adversaries gain the upper hand and America is left less safe.

General Kruse is a career military officer with decades of distinguished, non-partisan service to our nation, making this ouster all the more troubling.

When we start purging agents for doing their jobs, instead of toeing a partisan line, we weaken our defense against everything from violent crime to foreign threats, and that makes us all less safe.

If the administration is serious about honoring our veterans, it needs to stop undermining the VA workforce and start recruiting and retaining the skilled professionals who care for our heroes.

Under this administration, we've seen policy after policy that makes it harder for public servants to do their jobs and ultimately harder for veterans to get the care they've earned.

The desperate and irresponsible release of the partisan House Intelligence report puts at risk some of the most sensitive sources and methods our Intelligence Community uses to spy on Russia and keep Americans safe.

We should be outraged by the firing of April Doss, a deeply principled public servant, apparently for the role that she played in the Senate Intelligence Committee’s bipartisan investigation into Russian election interference.

Tell me how you're going to recruit somebody to, in one of our adversarial nations, maybe work with us, if that information is carelessly thrown around.
