I think ultimately that the rules that you make for gun control, people who are intent on killing themselves aren't too concerned with the rules. Law-abiding citizens are.

I really think that discrimination and racism is a horrible thing. And I don't want any form of it in our government, in our public sphere.

I still say exactly what my original opinion is. Do you borrow money from China to send it to anyone? Out of your surplus, you can help your allies, and Israel is a great ally.

The most important thing you will do is yet to be seen. For me, I found my important thing to do when I learned to do surgery on the eye, when I learned to restore a person's vision.

I think when people voted for Donald Trump, they realized he owned a lot of stuff with his name on it. I think the concern over conflict of interest seems to be higher in the media than the public. People saying, oh, he has to sell all of his stuff.

As commander-in-chief, I will do whatever it takes to defend America. But in defending America, we cannot lose what America stands for.
Rand Paul

I have allowed the president to pick his political appointees…But I will not sit quietly and let him shred the Constitution.

It is impossible for African-Americans not to feel like their government is particularly targeting them.

My great grandfather, like many, came to this country in search of the American Dream.

I love the Mexican people I respect the Mexican leaders - but the leaders are much sharper, smarter and more cunning than our [American] leaders.

Because Republicans believe that the federal government is limited in its function-some have concluded that Republicans are somehow inherently insensitive to minority rights. Nothing could be further from the truth.
