Most of what we report from Congress they don't care about unless it affects them directly.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The problem... is that most members of Congress don't pay attention to what's going on.
Most of us complain about Congress. We say it's a place that doesn't reflect us; they don't listen to us. Actually, Congress well reflects the American people. It gives us exactly what we ask for.
I don't mind what Congress does, as long as they don't do it in the streets and frighten the horses.
Congress must not do something just for the sake of doing something. We must carefully and thoughtfully consider the implications of any action and whether that action will help or hinder our ultimate mission of protecting U.S. citizens from terror.

We have to remind the people: Congress has the constitutional obligation and public responsibility to oversee these issues and the Department of Justice's operations.
Anything my staff does in my office is pursuant to congressional rules.
I would be concerned if any speech to Congress related any information that's new to the president of the United States.
People also don't care about the daily comings and goings of diplomats and yet we must report it.
We have a lot of talented people in this Congress, and we can avoid a lot of unintended consequences if we just included them.
