I think, and my final point is, congressional oversight capability must be beefed up.

Congressional oversight has been dramatically weakened because we have no enforcement mechanisms.

I kind of look at Inspectors General the exact same way.

I am concerned about the thrust of all the requirements imposed by Congress.

My solution would be to beef up, reclaim congressional oversight power.

This was further cover-up by the FBI and the Department of Justice.

I think that is wrong.

I think we have to be circumspect about China's interests.

I want to thank Chair Baldwin and congratulate you, my colleague, on the chairmanship.

I think it would be disingenuous to say the border is closed.

I hope you take that in consideration.

What are you going to do with the remembrance Coast Guard that refuse to take the vaccine?

Maritime security and safety issues of National Security are essential to our economic security and our National Security.

Are we going to mandate and force members of the military to take a vaccine that is not fully FDA approved?

Do you believe the Southern border is secure?

The Arctic has quickly shifted... to what is now clearly referred to as the region of the next great power competition.

The fact that this ministration won’t recognize natural immunity in these mandates.

You cannot come out from that because then you suffer the wrath.

We`re at each other`s throats now with these divisive mandates that are going to destroy our health care system.

These mandates are driven by the bait and switch of the FDA that we now have an approved vaccine. We do not have an approved vaccine in America.

It is hard to just forgive and forget and that means we also discussed within the education systems that they are really not trying to instill a forgive and forget attitude.

What distinguishes us and strengthens us is the fact that we have our alliance with Japan and our alliance with Australia and South Korea.

I think we all recognize, as the chairman had indicated, that both sides share responsibility to make concessions to move forward in the region between Serbia and Kosovo.

We need to build the institutions that are permanent and that take this policy that we are discussing this morning into the 2030s because the competition with China will be multi-decade.

I thought it was the right approach when Ambassador Grenell and President Trump engaged and got the parties to agree, focusing on the area of agreement in terms of economic cooperation.
