Adam Schiff
We still have a problem here in this country of access to airports and airplanes [for terrorists].

Some argue that recognition of the genocide has become even more problematic now, when the world is at war with terrorism and the United States cannot afford to offend the sensibility of our Turkish ally.
Adam Schiff
So let us call genocide, genocide. Let us not minimize the deliberate murder of 1.5 million people. Let us have a moral victory that can shine as a light to all nations.

Adam Schiff
We must either reduce the number of our engagements or increase the number of our troops.
Adam Schiff

Adam Schiff
It's a huge gap in security, it's a huge problem we've had with our immigration system for many years.
Adam Schiff
A tremendous number of people come to the country legally, but overstay their visas. And there has to be a far stronger mechanism for being able to track down people, have overstayed their visas, to have a responsibility for who they're coming to visit or stay with.
Adam Schiff
There are many reasons why the Russians prefer Donald Trump.I think, in the first instance, they wanted to tear down Secretary Clinton. They, I think, despised her remarks about the flawed 2011 elections in Russia. They feared that she would be very tough on Russia in terms of sanctions.
Adam Schiff
If someone is brought in for an interview, for example, and is asked about their views on things, but has posted things that are completely contrary to the interview, frankly I have much more faith in what they posted than what they say during the course of an interview.
Adam Schiff
The Gulf states are happy for us to fight and die. That's good for everybody, but the Americans fighting and dying.
Adam Schiff
Аt the end of the day, unless Iran and Russia want to have a rump Allawite state and a rump Sunni state, and a Kurdish state, then they're going to have to come to the table and bring about an end to this regime.
Adam Schiff
Too much under the thumb of the Iranians.
