I believe in making government as Ronald Reagan said. Not the distributor of gifts and privilege but once again the protector of our liberties.
Paul Ryan
Image
The debt and the deficit is just getting out of control, and the administration is still pumping through billions upon trillions of new spending. That does not grow the economy.

The appointment of a special counsel, I think, helps assure people and the Justice Department that they are going to go do their jobs independently and thoroughly, which is what we called for all along.

I think conditions on the ground determine what you need in a particular area.

Look, only in Washington is not raising taxes considered a tax cut. Nobody's getting a tax cut here. We're not cutting taxes. We're preventing tax increases from occurring.
