Kennedy [FBI Budget hearing]: Why did the FBI give Mr. Strzok 1.3 million dollars, and Miss Page eight hundred thousand dollars to settle a lawsuit?

Director Patel: Senator, I do not know. That settlement was reached in the prior administration.

Kennedy: Who made the decision?

Director Patel: The prior Department of Justice.

Kennedy: Who in the prior Department of Justice?

Director Patel: The settlement for that kind of case can only come from the attorney general, which would be Attorney General Merrick Garland.

Kennedy: So the attorney general decided to give Mr. Strzok 1.2 million dollars, and Miss Page, eight hundred thousand dollars, after they were fired, after actively interfering in the 2016 election, is that right?

Director Patel: My understanding is that was a settlement they agreed to.

Kennedy: Pass me the sick bucket please.

President Trump: We just concluded the Rare Earth deal with Ukraine. That's been fully ratified and approved by their legislative branches…we have access to a massive amount of very, very high quality Rare Earth.

President Trump: Today's agreement with the UK is the first in the series of agreements on trade that my administration has been negotiating over the past four weeks…the deal includes billions of dollars of increased market access by American exports, especially in agriculture, dramatically increasing access for American beef, ethanol, and virtually all of the products produced by our great farmers.

President Trump: Every country throughout the last forty, fifty years, has literally ripped-off the United States. On trade, on military, protection; all the different things. And we are now making fair deals.

President Trump: We blew up the whole system.

President Trump: We are using tariffs now for our benefit, and we have now close to ten trillion…close to ten trillion in investment.

UK Ambassador Mandelson: We will continue reducing tariffs and non-tariff barriers. This is a continuing picture. It's a movie. It's not a still picture here. It continues.

President Trump: You better go out and buy stock now.

President Trump: If this country went bad, the whole world would go bad. But we really saved it from going bad.

President Trump: We're going to be buying a brand new; it's going out to bid very soon, brand new, state of the art system, that will cover the entire world [air traffic control].

President Trump: I love Space Force. I have a special little feeling for Space Force.
