2,779 | In doing so, they've signaled to the whole country, to the American people, that they are willing to give fentanyl-pushing drug cartels a pass, hamstring the Border Patrol, and emaciate the budgets of local and federal law enforcement's officers on the frontlines of fighting violent crime. [SEP] The President has long said -- and you've heard me say this as well, and he said this many, many times -- Don't tell me what you value. | continue |
2,780 | You look at what Mr. al Hakim said yesterday -- and, again, just run through some of the things he was talking about in the speech. [SEP] The first thing he talked about is the fact that there's a democracy in Iraq, and that this is something that is an incredible and important difference. | continue |
2,781 | That's in 10 days and ahead of the original May 1st timeline. [SEP] Our vaccinations program is working, it's accelerating, and we're on track to meet the President's goal of administering 200 million shots in his first 100 days. | continue |
2,782 | You know better than I do. [SEP] And what happens is, there is a preexisting condition. | continue |
2,783 | And as a consequence, we've also been able to reduce carbon emissions that cause climate change faster than most of the other industrialized countries. [SEP] So the bottom line is, is that America continues to lead. | continue |
2,784 | There are senior members of the administration that are traveling to the region this week. [SEP] That also means continuing to engage members of the international community, including our allies in NATO in this effort. | continue |
2,785 | And they are the lifeblood of our economy, a creator of jobs, a creator of wealth in our country. [SEP] And we want to be sure that they have the resources they need. | continue |
2,786 | Look at the progress we've made with North Korea. [SEP] It's still uncertain. | continue |
2,787 | Brown, who called for the extension as part of a national manufacturing strategy, is working alongside President Obama to pass the Small Business Jobs Act and to create jobs through a nationwide investment in transportation infrastructure. [SEP] There's no better place to discuss the challenges facing our economy and the need to boost job growth than right here in the state of Ohio, said Brown. | continue |
2,788 | As you know, you can't really separate, today, prison reform and our prison situation from addiction. [SEP] In North Dakota, 100 percent of the women that are incarcerated in our prison system have a disease of addiction. | continue |
2,789 | And we will help that proud, new nation secure its liberty, and then our troops will return home with the honor they have earned. [SEP] Today, we're seeing hopeful signs across the broader Middle East. | continue |
2,790 | I proposed a way to deal with this in the biggest investment we've ever proposed in our country's history. [SEP] I worry about the next town that's destroyed, the next family that loses a home, the next person who drowns in a once-in-a-century flood. | continue |
2,791 | Since 1979, the United States has provided over $1 billion of humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan. [SEP] According to U.N. estimates, there were over 1 million displaced people in Afghanistan prior to September 11th. | continue |
2,792 | And NASA - if you look at Kennedy, if you look down in Florida, you look - wherever you want to look, it was not a pretty picture. [SEP] They were almost, you could say, abandoned, and now they're in tip-top shape. | continue |
2,793 | So when I hear, for example, others say, I will have all troops out, well, the fact of the matter is who's going to protect our embassy? [SEP] Who's going to protect our civilian forces? | continue |
2,794 | And we're getting Americans off of welfare and back into the workforce. [SEP] Nearly 2.5 million Americans have risen out of poverty. | continue |
2,795 | You could say as a matter of common sense, Well, the law says in person at the Capitol, but we're in the middle of a pandemic and everything is now virtual. [SEP] Why don't we have a virtual meeting? | continue |
2,796 | If you've got yourself a retired NASA employee in your neighborhood, it seems like to me you want to be able to have that person go into the classrooms and teach science or math. [SEP] One of the things the superintendent may tell you here-I know I've heard it from other superintendents-is that we've got a shortage of math teachers and science teachers. | continue |
2,797 | That includes 48 members of the Russian Embassy and Consulate in New York. [SEP] I'm sorry -- 48 members of the Russian Embassy, and 12 at the U.N. | continue |
2,798 | I think the cessation of hostilities has, over the last several weeks, provided an opening for the restoration of some degree of calm in areas in Syria and has allowed for the delivery of some amount of humanitarian assistance to the Syrian people. [SEP] We have seen persistent violations of the cessation of hostilities. | continue |
2,799 | We're at a very strong position. [SEP] We are the piggy bank that everybody likes to take advantage of, or take from. | continue |
2,800 | You have the CDC, which issued warnings on indoor dining last week. [SEP] Then you have the particular situation of New York City, which is one of the dense locations in this country with crowding. | continue |
2,801 | During the Cold War there were plenty of disagreements about tactics, but there was consensus on the most important factor, which was we had to win. [SEP] We have to win. | continue |
2,802 | When we use taxpayer dollars to rebuild America -we are going to Buy American: buy American products to support American jobs. [SEP] The federal government spends about $600 Billion a yearto keep the country safe and secure. | continue |
2,803 | And we're also now on track to triple the number of rapid, at-home tests on the market by -- and thanks to the approval of ACON -- sorry -- this Monday, which accelerates the pace. [SEP] We're now on track to triple the number. | continue |
2,804 | It would be terrible for our national security. [SEP] And, you know, unfortunately many of these critics can get away with just suggesting that bombing more, or being less discriminant in how we approach that, would make a difference. | continue |
2,805 | And he'll continue to do that, not just him -- the Vice President, the First Lady, as well. [SEP] We have used the full weight of the administration to do all that we can, use the tools that we have to deal with this issue. | continue |
2,806 | It should have never been allowed to happen. [SEP] It should have been stopped at the source. | continue |
2,807 | We have a trade deficit with almost every country in the world. [SEP] We're changing that around rapidly. | continue |
2,808 | And yet, it is China that has launched the largest effort in history to make their economy energy efficient. [SEP] We invented solar technology, but we've fallen behind countries like Germany and Japan in producing it. | continue |
2,809 | It matters. [SEP] Resiliency matters. | continue |
2,810 | Can you give a concrete example or several concrete examples of what you're doing or planning to ensure that we never see the terrible loss of life in the UK again, because this will not be the last pandemic. [SEP] And just to follow up on the question about the EU, would you urge the EU against the kind of controls on the exports of vaccines that have been suggested? | continue |
2,811 | The challenge has been a Republican Party that has become increasingly ideological and extreme, and I think that's reflected in the current presidential race. [SEP] Now the good news is that political parties go through these moments, and there are a lot of good people out there who are Republicans who don't recognize the direction that the party is taking. | continue |
2,812 | I mean, don't forget, in the Dobbs decision, if you - I read the decision, including Clarence Thomas's words. [SEP] Clarence Thomas said the quiet part out loud. | continue |
2,813 | I don't want you to have to pay for another Wall Street bailout. [SEP] I don't want credit card companies to be able to jack up your interest rates whenever they feel like it without giving you notice. | continue |
2,814 | But as you say, we have had the virtual bilat. [SEP] We've had many, many encounters at all sorts of different international fora where we've been strongly aligned on environment; on fighting COVID and getting - getting through this pandemic, preparing for future challenges; but also on building back better and recovering our economies in ways that work for the middle class, for people working hard to join it in a way that is inclusive and fair. | continue |
2,815 | He was reviewing humanitarian operations in the region, as well as in the staging areas where the aid is stockpiled for the purpose of getting it onto site and helping the people who need help the most. [SEP] The United States has supplied more than 80 percent of all food aid to vulnerable Afghans through the United Nations World Food Program. | continue |
2,816 | In recent decades, the two measures we have put the most weight on are real personal income less transfer and nonfarm payroll employment. [SEP] So that is from the nonpartisan National Bureau of Economics Research, again, determines the definition of recession. | continue |
2,817 | The President's speech set out a clear, unambiguous vision that America will always work in the best interests of its citizens and will always work with responsible countries around the globe to keep the world safe and secure. [SEP] There is no greater example of this vision than President Trump's commitments, reemphasized today, to confront the reckless nuclear aspirations of Iran and North Korea, to oppose the brutal regime of Syria, and to combat radical Islamic terrorism at home and abroad. | continue |
2,818 | Only thing I would say is, I believe it's much worse than you realized it was going to be, and it is not confined by any means to Michigan. [SEP] I mean, this is what you are describing, cutting off Republican inspectors happened in 10 cities, all Democrat control cities, all cities with a history of corruption. | continue |
2,819 | I said, Look, we have a big deficit with you. [SEP] We take care of your military, and we have a deficit. | continue |
2,820 | We are also committed to the people in our own backyards, to black people who are being killed at the hands of law enforcement in almost every city in this country, undocumented families, people without healthcare in this country. [SEP] So I want you to know that, commit to doing two things, voting to defeat fascism, and committing yourself to the work that's going to happen the day after, because we and our community and organizes across the country, we want to see Joe Biden in the White House. | continue |
2,821 | With today's action, we are removing a large number of the unacceptably numerous Russian intelligence officers who abide in the United States. [SEP] This reduces Russia's ability to spy on American citizens, conduct covert operations on our soil, and threaten our national security. | continue |
2,822 | But we are determined to benchmarks, and we are determined to go forward and to achieve, as Mr. President mentioned. [SEP] Now we are due to end the oil law, which will revolutionary for all Iraqis, due to review the de-Ba'athification. | continue |
2,823 | And the question is not whether they're always right; the question is, do you have a society in which that conversation, that debate, can be tested and ideas are tested in the marketplace? [SEP] And because of the efforts of civil society, now, by and large, there's a consensus in the Americas on democracy and human rights and social development and social inclusiveness. | continue |
2,824 | The truth of the matter is that in order for there to be a substantial change either consumers have to change their habits - which we're encouraging through alternative tax of automobiles - or there has to be an increase of supply. [SEP] And both of them have to go hand in hand in order to achieve less dependence on this very unsettled oil market. | continue |
2,825 | The Fix NICS Act, which you know about, which strengthens very strongly the background checks for firearm purchases. [SEP] And the STOP School Violence Act, which provides grants to schools to improve safety. | continue |
2,826 | First of all, in terms of the underlying causes of spread, I think we defer to Chris and to the epidemiologists. [SEP] But secondly, the factors, we see it in the health service, are that on Christmas day we had 18, 000 coronavirus positive patients and now we've got just under 33, 000. | continue |
2,827 | It's not to say that my country is perfect; we are not. [SEP] And that's the point. | continue |
2,828 | These are -- individuals who don't have access to health care, aren't able to pay their medical bills, automatically those bills are assumed either by the government or by those of us who are paying insurance premiums. [SEP] But because of Medicaid expansion, you have a role for the federal government to step in and take care of some of those costs and make sure that these individuals are getting health care before their conditions get too bad. | continue |
2,829 | And every time, it goes back decades, centuries, these veterans are left holding the bag. [SEP] And every one of them you saw, they walked by, they looked at us and they kept walking and they shook their heads. | continue |
2,830 | I've signed an executive order stating that business cannot punish you if you say home because you've tested positive for COVID-19, if you're experiencing symptoms or have come in contact with someone who has. [SEP] We need to ensure that employees who are sick or have someone sick at home, stay at home. | continue |
2,831 | Senator Gazelka, the majority leader in the Minnesota State Senate, keeps saying he wants to listen to people are calling for solutions. [SEP] Well, I'll tell you one thing. | continue |
2,832 | But we can move hundreds of thousands. [SEP] It's meant for war. | continue |
2,833 | We are going to take airstrikes in Syria at a time and place of our choosing. [SEP] We are actively working different options that have been developed by the Pentagon. | continue |
2,834 | You know, as I said, this is not going to be solved by one day's action. [SEP] So the -- you know, the strong statement at the outset; all the work we've done, both before the decision and after the decision; and then, you know, we will come back. | continue |
2,835 | Why don't we have a virtual meeting? [SEP] That would be common sense. | continue |
2,836 | We got $28 billion in tariffs and we gave it to your farmers and everybody's doing just fine today, right? [SEP] But the radical left is doing everything in their power to protect their chosen candidate, who has no clue where he is. | continue |
2,837 | Those two forces are going to determine whether you're going to have a big outbreak. [SEP] So, what Dr. Redfield was saying, first of all, is that we will have coronavirus in the fall. | continue |
2,838 | In spite of the shortcomings of the present Joint Resolution, I have decided that the urgent need for the relief which it will give to cotton producers, and the promise which it holds out for making some improvement in the .potato program, outweigh the defects of the measure. [SEP] The principal relief provided is in the form of additional cotton acreage allotments. | continue |
2,839 | If this is indeed one of his top priorities, it must be accounted for without gimmicks in the budget the Administration submits to Congress next week. [SEP] Democrats insist upon fiscal discipline with budgets that pay as we go, and we want to strengthen Social Security for future generations. | continue |
2,840 | Are we at a point of -- are we at a point or near a point of crisis in Pakistan? [SEP] Is the administration ready to sound the alarm here, or are these reports overblown? | continue |
2,841 | But the Secretary is already taking action. [SEP] The website is already launched. | continue |
2,842 | The issue here has never been both sides stuck in a corner, unwilling to meet in the middle. [SEP] The challenge has been a Republican Party that has become increasingly ideological and extreme, and I think that's reflected in the current presidential race. | continue |
2,843 | It's much easier to reduce the viral spread in states with smaller populations. [SEP] It's much easier to reduce the viral spread in states with less density and with less crowding, where you don't have tall apartment buildings where everybody's getting in the same elevator, or in the same lobby, or in the same park outside. | continue |
2,844 | Look, Democrats and Republicans, we've always had our differences. [SEP] That's the nature of a democracy. | continue |
2,845 | That's why he put it in his first legislative proposal, and he doesn't -- he believes that any American who is working a full-time job trying to make ends meet should not be at the poverty level. [SEP] And it's important to him that the minimum wage is raised. | continue |
2,846 | Finally, we spoke of the need to prioritize US Army core of engineers flood control projects to mitigate further damages from potential additional storms. [SEP] The cores ongoing or potential projects cover areas that suffered damages during Hurricane Fiona, such as the area surrounding Rio de la Plata, Rio Peurto Neuvo, Rio Grande de Arecibo, Rio Nigua, Rio and Rio Inabon here in Ponce. | continue |
2,847 | They get out of jail, and they end up with a great job. [SEP] And they cherish the job more than you would, more than I would. | continue |
2,848 | We have our new draft for this. [SEP] We have another proper draft for investment. | continue |
2,849 | We had a great meeting. [SEP] Following that meeting, we announced a breakthrough agreement to remove trade barriers and increase United States exports of agriculture, energy, and other goods and services to the European Union. | continue |
2,850 | You saw that recently where they're trying to protect Sleepy Joe and his family from total corruption. [SEP] I mean, this is totally corrupt. | continue |
2,851 | And that's big stuff. [SEP] That's big stuff. | continue |
2,852 | Without quoting him - which I don't think is appropriate - let me ask a rhetorical question: You got a multi-thousand-mile border with China. [SEP] China is moving ahead, hellbent on election, as they say, seeking to be the most powerful economy in the world and the largest and the most powerful military in the world. | continue |
2,853 | That's why the American Rescue Plan was so critical. [SEP] I want to thank Speaker Pelosi and the House of Representatives today for passing the bill. | continue |
2,854 | And for every child under the age of - between - over the age of 12, you're going to get $3, 000. [SEP] So, you'll actually get a cash payment instead of just a credit against your taxes, because you don't pay that many taxes if you're - if you're making - if you're making the minimum wage or you're making $20-, $30-, $40, 000 a year. | continue |
2,855 | I'll do it by more drilling, more permits and licenses. [SEP] We're going to bring that pipeline in from Canada. | continue |
2,856 | To date, we've seen three cases of Ebola diagnosed here: the man who contracted the disease in Liberia, came here, and sadly died; the two courageous nurses who were infected while they were treating him. [SEP] Our thoughts and our prayers are with them, and we're doing everything we can to give them the best care possible. | continue |
2,857 | Second - cut energy costs for families an average of $500 a year by combatting climate change. [SEP] Let's provide investments and tax credits to weatherize your homes and businesses to be energy efficient and you get a tax credit; double America's clean energy production in solar, wind, and so much more; lower the price of electric vehicles, saving you another $80 a month becauseyou'll never have to pay at the gas pump again. | continue |
2,858 | And at the United States Military Academy, you push yourself to the limit in body, and mind, and spirit because you play for more than a trophy. [SEP] The lessons you learn on the football field will help you to lead on the battlefield. | continue |
2,859 | He's also, by the way, a member of both the Burlington and Ocean City Chambers of Commerce, and I share his support of all the small business owners who have been working hard to keep their dreams alive throughout this pandemic. [SEP] We're going to get through this together and we're going to come out stronger together. | continue |
2,860 | And it wouldn't be pretty. [SEP] It would be tough. | continue |
2,861 | He said that just before we reduced inflation from more than 12 percent down to 4. [SEP] And then, after the tax cuts, he said all he could see was an anemic recovery. | continue |
2,862 | I'm just going to make a very short statement because we're going to the DMZ border, and I'll be meeting with Chairman Kim. [SEP] I look forward to it very much. | continue |
2,863 | It's been that way since they took out the steps so that Franklin Roosevelt could make it to his place of work. [SEP] This house is among the first places in America to accommodate people with disabilities. | continue |
2,864 | It was the fulfillment of a thousand years of Western civilization. [SEP] Our Constitution was the product of centuries of tradition, wisdom, and experience. | continue |
2,865 | These people may get mild or asymptomatic infections and could unknowingly spread those infections to others. [SEP] Again, this means it is important for everyone, regardless of vaccination status, to wear a mask in public indoor settings in communities of substantial or high transmission. | continue |
2,866 | I also proposed a bold new program of reemployment accounts to help workers searching for jobs. [SEP] Our commitment to a strong economy does not stop with these important steps. | continue |
2,867 | Your commander-in-chief and I understand that. [SEP] This is personal to us. | continue |
2,868 | African American youth unemployment is the lowest level in the history of our country. [SEP] And African American unemployment is the lowest level in history. | continue |
2,869 | Good governance - well, it delivers predictability, stability, and rule of law, which is what businesses need to invest and what benefits all of society. [SEP] And good governance is a key attribute of a good democracy. | continue |
2,870 | The President's out there making the case that we need to, here in Washington, focus on what the American people are focused on, which is the need to make sure that good jobs, middle-class jobs, well-paying jobs, are available in industries that will stay here in the United States and help our overall economic growth; that Americans are able to achieve that part of the American Dream that is about homeownership -- and that's what the President will be discussing next week in Phoenix. [SEP] He'll also talk about the importance of education to our economic growth and the importance of education to middle-class families and those families that aspire to the middle class. | continue |
2,871 | This year, Congress allocated an additional eight million dollars, a very substantial sum in these budget constrained times, and I thank Chairman Calvert for his support. [SEP] The Early Warning System will give us critical time for trains to be slowed and surgeries to be stopped beforeshakinghits - saving lives and protecting infrastructure. | continue |
2,872 | But we've seen that, over the weekend, it just got worse. [SEP] And I think anybody who's following these news reports, whether you're an official with the United States government or just a human being reading the news, understanding the toll that this violence is taking on the lives of so many innocent people, you've got to be deeply concerned about it. | continue |
2,873 | Republicans are fighting for citizens from every background and from every race, religion, color, and creed. [SEP] We are a movement. | continue |
2,874 | They are talking about ways to get a patients' bill of rights passed into law that meets the President's principles -- principally, that it does not drive up the cost of health insurance because there's no point in enacting a patients' bill of rights into law that means that people are going to lose the very insurance that it is designed to be protecting. [SEP] And discussions will continue with Congressman Norwood and with many other members. | continue |
2,875 | You can catch somebody doing the worst crime, and they don't want to do anything. [SEP] So we're very, very upset about that. | continue |
2,876 | So, no, Nikki wants to work with us and also to keep it going. [SEP] She wants to work - I guess she said today, a few times, she wants to work on the 2020 Election with us. | continue |
2,877 | Last year in the State of the Union address, the President called for reducing traditional gasoline use by 20 percent in 10 years; it is called 20-in-10 program. [SEP] In December of 2007 he largely got what he wanted, except it didn't go as far and as fast as he wanted to, to help us wean ourselves off of traditional uses of oil. | continue |
2,878 | On the other hand, cases and emergency room visits are up. [SEP] And as I've highlighted through the week, we are seeing these increases in younger adults, most of whom have not yet been vaccinated. | continue |
