I think we defeat terrorism by showing them that we do not fear them.

We need to be fearful of companies that get so big that they can actually be directing policy.

We have a lot of politicians who have really small brains and really big hearts.

On the Gang of Eight bill, there was no provisions really for extra scrutiny or safety for refugees. At the time the bill came up, two Iraqi refugees came to my home town, Bowling Green, Kentucky. Their fingerprints were on a bomb from Iraq. They were in the database, but we didn't pick them up.

I will speak until I can no longer speak. I will speak as long as it takes, until the alarm is sounded from coast to coast that our Constitution is important, that your rights to trial by jury are precious, that no American should be killed by a drone on American soil without first being charged with a crime, without first being found to be guilty by a court.

The First Amendment says keep government out of religion. It doesn't say keep religion out of government.
