00:00Would the senator yield for a question?

00:03Chuck Schumer, it's the only time in my life I can tell you no.

00:09I just want to tell you a question. Do you know you have just broken the record?

00:13Do you know how proud this caucus is of you?

00:16Do you know how proud America is of you?

00:27I want to go a little bit past this, and then I'm going to deal with some of the biological urgencies I'm feeling.

00:38When our founders said we must mutually pledge, pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

00:47We need that now from all Americans.

00:50This is a moral moment. It's not left or right, it's right or wrong.

00:59It's getting good trouble.

01:01My friend, Madam President, I yield the floor.
