If you give up your rights now, don’t expect to get them back.

I believe we should work to end all racism in American society and staunchly defend the inherent rights of every person.

Nobody ever was fired for 9/11. Instead of firing the people who didn't do a good job, we gave them medals. The guy who did a good job, I don't know what happened to him. And what we did was we decided we'd just collect everybody's information. That we'd sort of scrap the Bill of Rights.

You either believe in the Constitution, or you don't.
