We Are In A Struggle Against Radical Islamic Terrorism, Al-qaida And Isis. The President, In His Campaign For Office, Made It Clear That He Would Make A Priority Of Confronting Radical Islamic Terrorism Abroad. But Also Adding New Measures To Ensure That Individuals Would Not Be Coming Into This Country With The Motivation To Harm Our People.

As A Conservative Who Believes In Limited Government, I Believe The Only Check On Government Power In Real Time Is A Free And Independent Press.

America Is Less Safe Today Than It Was The Day That Barack Obama Became President Of The United States. It's Absolutely Inarguable.

I Mean, The Reality Is Unemployment Today - Over 14 Million Americans Are Unemployed. That's Exactly What It Was A Year Ago. I Mean, This - The American People Know We Can't Borrow And Spend And Bail Our Way Back To A Growing Economy.

I'm Grateful For Donald Trump's Pro-life Views. And I'm Grateful That He's Expressed Those Views So Publicly And Openly. And, Look, The American People Know That There Are Issues That Divide Us Very Quickly, And They're Issues That Are Often Matters Of The Heart For Every American.

Donald Trump's Laid Out A Plan To End Illegal Immigration Once And For All In America. We've Been Talking It To Death For 20 Years. Hillary Clinton And Tim Kaine Want To Continue The Policies Of Open Borders, Amnesty, Catch And Release, Sanctuary Cities, All The Things That Are Driving Wages Down In This Country.

I Truly Do Believe That President Trump Making Decisions To Pause Our Various Immigration Programs And Refugee Programs For A Period Of Time So That We Can Ensure That There Are New Safeguards In Place.

In Fact, In Indiana We Suspended The Syrian Refugee Program In The Wake Of The Terrorist Attack. We Have No Higher Priority Than The Safety And Security Of The People Of This Country, And Donald Trump Is Right To Articulate That View.

I Mean, You Know, There's A Lot Of Talk About Tolerance In The Country Today Having To Do With People On The Left.

To See The Way That [my Mother] Held Our Family Together After My Dad Passed Away, And Then Went To College After My Youngest Sister Went Off To School On Her Own, And Mom Went And Got A College Degree In Her 60s Is Just Incredibly Inspiring. So, I Would Just Say My Folks.

There's Two Ways You Can Defeat Your Opponent, Number One, Is You Can Defeat 'em Outright, Or Number Two, You Can Just Demoralize Them.

Donald Trump Has Laid Out A Priority To Remove Criminal Aliens, Remove People Who Have Overstayed Their Visas. And Once We Have Accomplished All Of That, Which Will Strengthen Our Economy, Strengthen The Rule Of Law In This Country And Make Our Communities Safer Once The Criminal Aliens Are Out, Then We'll Deal With Those That Remain.

Donald Trump Understands The Frustrations And The Hopes Of The American People.

The American People Aren't Focused On The Debates Of The Past. They're Focused On Their Future. They're Focused On The Challenges That We're Facing At Home And Abroad.

The Promise To Share The Burden Of Our Defense Has Gone Unfulfilled For Too Many For Too Long, And It Erodes The Very Foundation Of Nato.

Let's Win The Peace And Democracy The Good People Of Iraq So Richly Deserve After Decades Of Tyranny.

It's Time For Conservative Americans To Right The Ship Again.

When People Take Greater Ownership Of Their Own Health Care And Are Encouraged To Do That In A Health Plan, Their Health Gets Better. They Pursue More Wellness Opportunities.

Americans Are At War With Radical Islamic Terrorism. We Are At War With The Isis Caliphate, And What We Need Is A Commander-in-chief Who Knows That, Who Understands That, Who Will Give Our Military The Resources They Need To Make That Fight, Pull Our Allies Together - Including Moderate Arab Nations - And Hunt Down And Destroy Isis And Other Terrorist Organizations At Their Source.

The Reality Is, There Is Heartbreaking Tragedy That Has Struck American Families Because People Who Came Into This Country Illegally Are Now Involved In Criminal And Reprise And Activity, And We Do Not Have The Resources Or The Will To Deport Them Systematically.

This Grandson Of An Irish Immigrant, After Whom I Was Named, Richard Michael Cawley Is My Grandfather. I Was Right That - And I Always Tell Kids That, You Know, If My Small Life Represents Anything Is That If You Work Hard, You Study Hard, And You Never Give Up On Your Dreams And Listen To People That Care About, You Can Live Those Dreams. And For Me To Be Up On The Platform Standing With My Right Hand In The Air In The Presence Of My Family And Our New President [donald Trump], It Just Tells Me This Is A Great Country. My Grandfather Was Right.

The True Legacy Of 9-11 Cannot Be Found Among Political Leaders Of The Day, But In The Citizen Soldiers And Public Safety Personnel Who Answered That Day With Courage And Selflessness.

People Need To Understand, We Can Come Together As A Nation. We Can Create A Culture Of Life. More And More Young People Today Are Embracing Life Because We Know We Are - We're Better For It.

We Could Improve Adoption So That Families That Can't Have Children Can Adopt More Readily Those Children From Crisis Pregnancies.

Growing Up I Used To ... One Of My Heroes Growing Up Was President John F. Kennedy. And I Actually Have A Memory Box From When I Was A Little Where I Saved Articles About President Kennedy. He Was A Real Hero.

I Couldn't Be More Proud To Be Standing With Donald Trump, Who Is Standing For The Right To Life.

I Opposed No Child Left Behind, I Opposed The Medicare Prescription Drug Bill, I Opposed The Wall Street Bailout. What The American People Are Starting To See Is That Republican, Republicans On Capitol Hill Get It And The Democrats, From The White House To Capitol Hill, Just Don't Get It.

Hillary Clinton Said Her Number One Priority Was A Reset With Russia. That Reset Resulted In The Invasion Of Ukraine.

The President Desires A Peaceful Resolution Of The Confrontation With North Korea And We'll Continue To Pursue That, But It All Begins When The Kim Regime Announces Their Willingness To Abandon Their Nuclear And Ballistic Missiles Program And Not Before.

It Is Not For The State Department Or Even The Secretary Of State To Say When And How The Resources Of The American People Will Be Spent.

Trump's Tax Returns - His Tax Returns Showed He Went Through A Very Difficult Time, But He Used The Tax Code Just The Way It's Supposed To Be Used. And He Did It Brilliantly.

Difficult Times

The Presidency Is The Most Visible Thread That Runs Through The Tapestry Of The American Government. More Often Than Not, For Good Or For Ill, It Sets The Tone For The Other Branches And Spurs The Expectations Of The People.

[j.f Kennedy] Was A Congressman And A Senator And He Would Go On To Be President. I Had That Idea As A Little Boy, And I Used To Joke To People But Nobody Told Me That His Father Was Ambassador To England And That He Was A War Hero, And He Was, You Know.

President Trump's Made It Clear That His Administration Is Going To Put The Safety And Security Of The American People First.

Our Primary Threat Today Is Isis. And Because Hillary Clinton Failed To Renegotiate A Status Of Forces Agreement That Would Have Allowed Some American Combat Troops To Remain In Iraq And Secure The Hard Fought Gains The American Soldier Had Won By 2009, Isis Was Able To Be Literally Conjured Up Out Of The Desert, And It's Overrun Vast Areas That The American Soldier Had Won In Operation Iraqi Freedom.

I Am Going To Be Using Ronald Reagan's Bible [during Swearing-in]. But I'm Also Going To Be Using One Of Our Personal Bibles From Home; It'll Be Different Than The One I Used When I Was Inaugurated As Governor.

Donald Trump And I Would Never Support Legislation That Punished Women Who Made The Heart-breaking Choice To End A Pregnancy.

The Person Who Had The Greatest Influence In My Life Was My Dad, Who Was A Wonderful Small Businessman, Devoted To His Family, Devoted To The Local Church.

We Ought To Assure The Public That We'll Have A Full And Complete And Transparent Investigation Whenever There's A Loss Of Life Because Of Police Action.

I'm Very Comfortable With The Fact That There's Only One Person In Charge Of The Trump Administration. It's President Donald Trump.

The Best Place To Grow Jobs And Create Opportunities Is Right Here, In The United States.

We've Weakened America's Place In The World. It's Been A Combination Of Factors, But Mostly It's Been A Lack Of Leadership.

Nobody Was Talking About Illegal Immigration When Donald Trump Entered This Campaign. He Was Attacked From Day One For Putting The Whole Issue Of The Violence That Is Derived From Certain Individuals That Come Into This Country Illegally On The Table. . . He Is Hearing From All Sides. But I Promise You, He Is A Decisive Leader. He Will Stand On The Principles That Have Underpinned His Commitment To End Illegal Immigration In This Country. And That's What People Will Learn More About In The Days Ahead.

After We Secure The Border, Not Only Build A Wall, But Beneath The Ground And In The Air, We Do Internal Enforcement.

Power Is An Instrument Of Fatal Consequence. It Is Confined No More Readily Than Quicksilver, And Escapes Good Intentions As Easily As Air Flows Through Mesh.

Good Intentions

I Just Think What We Ought To Do Is We Ought To Stop Seizing One Moments Of Tragedy. We Ought To Assure The Public That We'll Have A Full And Complete And Transparent Investigation Whenever There's A Loss Of Life Because Of Police Action. But, You Know, Enough Of This Seeking Every Opportunity To Demean Law Enforcement Broadly By Making The Accusation Of Implicit Bias Every Time Tragedy Occurs.

We've Seen An Economy Stifled By More Taxes, More Regulation, A War On Coal And A Failing Health Care Reform Come To Be Known As Obamacare And The American People Know That We Need To Make A Change.

I Was Raised To Believe In Hard Work, In Faith And Family. ... The Most Important Job I'll Ever Have Is Spelled D-a-d.

By Requiring That Any Surplus In Social Security Taxes Be Returned To The American People In Personal Savings Accounts, The Plan Ensures That Social Security Taxes Will Be Used For Social Security.

Donald Trump Wants To Make It Clear To The American People That, While Hillary Clinton Is Committed To Open Borders, And Amnesty, And Executive Amnesty, And More Of The Same That Has Really Harmed Our Economy, And, Frankly, As He Said, With Regard To Dangerous Individuals In This Country, Has Cost American Lives. . . .

It Was Hillary Clinton Who Left Americans In Harm's Way In Benghazi And After Four Americans Fell, Said: ''what Difference, At This Point, Does It Make?''

Donald Trump Is A Businessman, Not A Career Politician. He Actually Built A Business. Those Tax Returns That Were - That Came Out Publicly This Week Show That He Faced Some Pretty Tough Times 20 Years Ago. But Like Virtually Every Other Business, Including The New York Times Not Too Long Ago, He Used What's Called Net Operating Loss. We Have A Tax Code That Actually Is Designed To Encourage Entrepreneurship In This Country.

You Know, Hoosiers Recognize Pork When We See It. And They Recognize What Bailing Out Every Failing Business In America Means - We're Burying Generations Under A Mountain Range Of Debt.

Mountain Ranges

Hillary Clinton Are Going To Raise Taxes And Donald Trump And I Are Going To Cut Them.

We Provide An Enormous Amount Of Resources, Particularly With Regard To Military Resources, To Countries All Over The World. And In Many Cases, Those Countries Are Not Compensating The American Taxpayer For The Commitment That We're Making To Their Security.

Well, I Think The Reality Is That As You Study - When President Kennedy Cut Marginal Tax Rates, When Ronald Reagan Cut Marginal Tax Rates, When President Bush Imposed Those Tax Cuts, They Actually Generated Economic Growth. They Expanded The Economy. They Expand Tax Revenues.

We Are Here Simply To Decide Whether Congress Should Take The Taxpayer Dollars Of Millions Of Pro-life Americans And Use Them To Fund The Destruction Of Human Embryos For Research.

The Reality Is That There's Heartbreak And Tragedy That Has Struck American Families Because People That Came Into This Country Illegally Are Now Involved In Criminal Enterprise And Activity. We Don't Have The Resources Or The Will To Deport Them Systemically.

When You Hear Donald Trump Say He Wants To Make America Great Again, When We Do That I Truly Do Believe The American People Are Going To Be Standing Taller, They're Going To See That Real Change Can Happen After Decades Of Just Talking About It. And When That Happens The American People Are Going To Stand Tall, Stand Together And We'll Have The Kind Of Unity That's Been Missing For Way Too Long.

I Was Raised In A Wonderful Family Of Faith. It Was Church On Sunday Morning And Grace Before Dinner, But My Christian Faith Became Real For Me When I Made A Personal Decision For Christ When I Was A Freshman In College, And I've Tried To Live That Out However Imperfectly Every Day Of My Life Since, And With My Wife At My Side, We've Followed A Calling In The Public Service Where We've Tried To Keep Faith With Values That We Cherish.

The President [donald Trump] Said His Three-part Agenda Is Jobs, Jobs, Jobs.

Donald Trump Is Going To Remain Completely Focused On American Citizens And People Who Are Here Legally, And How We Get This Country Working For People Who Play By The Rules.

I Joked At Our National Convention That Our Party Was Nominating A Candidate For President Who Was Charismatic, Larger Than Life, Memorable, So They Wanted To Balance The Ticket.

For Me It Was A Calling To Public Service. I Often Tell People Other Than A Whole Lot Of Zeros, He And I Have A Lot In Common, And That Is A Belief In The American Dream Because We Both [with Donald Trump] Have Lived It.

Torture Is Illegal. Torture Is Banned By Various Provisions Of The Law. I Support That.

We're At War With The Isis Caliphate That Sprang Up Because Hillary Clinton And Barack Obama Precipitously Withdrew All American Forces From Iraq And Created A Vacuum Of Power, That Isis Was Able To Overrun Vast Territories That Our Soldiers Had Won In Operation Iraqi Freedom.

I'm Going To Bring My Best Efforts And Do My Very Best Every Day To Support Our New President's [donald Trump] Agenda And To Hopefully Play Some Small Role In Making America Great Again.

Every American, Including Our President, Represents That We Uphold The Highest Ideals Of The World.

I'm A Christian, A Conservative And A Republican, In That Order.

Donald Trump Is Going To Speak The Truth To The American People.

Working With President Trump Closely And Seeing The Way He Operates As A Leader, He's Always Interested In A Broad Range Of Opinions. But Make No Mistake About It. We Want In This Administration People That Share The President's Vision For A Safer America. For A Stronger America. For A More Prosperous America.

I Worked When I Was Congress On A Second Chance Act. We Have Got To Do A Better Job Recognizing And Correcting The Errors In The System That Do Reflect On Institutional Bias In Criminal Justice. But What - What - What Donald Trump And I Are Saying Is Let's Not Have The Reflex Of Assuming The Worst Of Men And Women In Law Enforcement. We Truly Do Believe That Law Enforcement Is Not A Force For Racism Or Division In Our Country.

The Conservative Movement Today Is Like That Tall Ship With Its Proud Captain: Strong, Accomplished But Veering Off Course Into The Dangerous And Uncharted Waters Of Big Government Republicanism.
