The Gulf states are happy for us to fight and die. That's good for everybody, but the Americans fighting and dying.
Adam Schiff
The president [Barack Obama] is not willing to send in apaches and spotters if the Iraqis say they don't want them and if it means that these Shia mobilization forces are going to be going after and trying to kill Americans.

That bomb that took down that Russian airliner may have been the size of a soda can. And that bomb killed more people than all the Paris attackers combined. So this is still a grave threat.
Adam Schiff
We need Democrats and Republicans in Congress to work together to fashion a very comprehensive pushback to Russia, not just the cyber-hacking, but their bribery of officials in Europe, their social media campaign, their overt media campaign.

Adam Schiff
Unless action is taken soon - unless we can display the same vision of that earlier period - we will lose the treasure of California's open space and environmental beauty.
Adam Schiff
We need Trump to lead the liberal democratic order around the world. No other nation can do that the way we can, and it's going to be very hard for Congress to do it over his opposition.
Adam Schiff
We still have a problem here in this country of access to airports and airplanes [for terrorists].
Adam Schiff
Russia is leading a movement around the world to spread autocracy and authoritarianism.
Adam Schiff
But even race-neutral policies and recruitment efforts designed to achieve greater diversity are, in the end, not race neutral.
Adam Schiff
Whether we kept a certain number of troops there or pulled out completely, if we can't get the Maliki government to include a large segment of its population in its security forces and protection, then the small amount of forces that we would have left there might have slowed this day, but they wouldn't have prevented it altogether.
Adam Schiff
Unquestionably, the world is better off without Saddam.
Adam Schiff
The legacy of the Armenian Genocide is woven into the fabric of America.
Adam Schiff
We know that Russia was involved in hacking our democracy. We know that the evidence or information is sufficient to warrant an FBI investigation of this. We are trying to do as much of this as we can in the public eye transparently. Obviously, some of it will have to be done in closed session.
Adam Schiff
Too much under the thumb of the Iranians.
Adam Schiff
The intelligence community is very professional, they do their jobs well, they're the best intelligence gatherers in the world. They're dedicated, patriotic Americans. They will work with any president. They want to have a good relationship with every president.
