The reason we don’t sell H200, and other advanced chips to China is that they have dual-use (military and civilian) capability.

These will help China improve their AI, surveillance, and cyber espionage capability.

The export controls existed strictly for NatSec purposes.

This President put a TV news host in charge of our national defense. Unsurprisingly, it is not going well.

Pete Hegseth is the most unfit, unqualified Defense Secretary in history.

He should resign.

There are more than 2,000 verses of Scripture that tell us how to treat the poor.

And none of those verses say we should take food away from hungry children, slash health care for the vulnerable, and give tax cuts to the rich.

These policies bear false witness against the God I know.

Every day it becomes more clear that Pete Hegseth is endangering the safety of our troops.

Enough is enough.

I’m calling on him to resign effective immediately.

It bears mentioning that the acts here, as far as they involve Trump, are unquestionably “official acts” entitling him to complete immunity according to our Supreme Court.
And it is beyond doubt that he can pardon Hegseth for any Federal crimes.
The only real solution remains impeachment.

In 2022, Donald Trump sued me and others associated with the Clinton campaign for RICO. We did not cave. We fought. First, we won in a Florida trial court. Today, we won in the 11th Circuit.

To the law firms, media corps and billionaires who bow down: Learn a lesson. Have some dignity and fight.

Gallego to Hegseth: "You will never ever be half the man that Sen. Kelly is. You, sir, are a coward. And the fact that you are following this order from the president shows how big of a coward you are. I can't wait until you are no longer the secretary of defense."

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

This should enrage everyone.

Kelly didn’t do anything wrong here, and he certainly didn’t do anything worthy of a court martial
Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.
