and my colleagues, I applaud the comments of my colleague from Georgia deeply. My first job after school was in Macon, GA, working for a Federal judge, Lanier Anderson. I learned a lot about integrity and a lot about law from him. I also…
Disenfranchisement isn't that you get outvoted up all the other states that you -- in the national popular vote, you lose by seven or eight million votes. That just means you pick the loser. You pick the wrong guy.
Well, Chris, that's a fantastic argument because really what these guys are doing is attacking the Electoral College.
It's really disturbing that President Trump would try to overthrow the result because he's lost. And he's desperate isn't a surprise. But I am surprised and really shocked by these colleagues. They're supporting something that's dangerous…
I'm shocked that these folks are willing to, you know, suck up to a would-be authoritarian to try to impress him, or more importantly, his followers. It's very discouraging.

on November 9, 2016, I had one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I stood on a hotel stage in New York City and, as my party's nominee for Vice President, introduced Secretary Hillary Clinton to address her supporters and the…
I rise in opposition to the nomination of Judge Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court. This process shows how misplaced the priorities of the Senate are at a critical moment in time. There is an epic national crisis that we should be…
thank you. I rise to talk about Americans' health and the health of Virginians. We are living through a crisis--the coronavirus crisis--that is unprecedented in American life since 100 years ago with the influenza of the late 19-teens, and…
I would like to add, on behalf of my Democratic colleagues, the concerns expressed for the President and First Lady, that they recover quickly and fully. Having had coronavirus--likely contracted here when we were working on the CARES Act…
Kamala Harris is sharp. You've seen her on the Intel committee and the Judiciary Committee.
No one can realistically say we're better off than we were four years ago. Why should you get one more day in office?
Our only guarantee that we can sweep him and all like him out of office is the biggest margin possible.
