We're different men [with Donald Trump], different life experiences. But I've always been struck by our common heritage. His grandfather immigrated to this country just like my grandfather. His dad was a self-made businessman, who built up a business with his two hands. And my dad followed his dreams to Columbus, Indiana, helped build a small business in that town.

I've asked Justice Clarence Thomas to administer the Oath of Office, which I'm incredibly honored that he accepted as he's in his 25th year on the Supreme Court and has developed an extraordinary judicial record.

You either choose to view America as the shining city on the hill that inspires the best in all mankind, or you don't.

A republic - if you can keep it - is about limitation, and for good reason, because we are mortal and our actions are imperfect.

The president [Donald Trump] said his three-part agenda is jobs, jobs, jobs.

Donald Trump and I are going to make sure that law enforcement have the resources and the tools to be able to really restore law and order to the cities and communities in this nation.
