  • 🚫 He highlights the irony of Democrats criticizing efforts to remove these threats, given their past actions.

Attacks on Law Enforcement

Government Accountability

  • πŸ›οΈ Grassley criticizes Homeland Security Secretary Morcus and FBI Director Ray for refusing to appear for their annual Congressional Report on homeland threats.
