                    PRESIDENT TRUMP'S LATEST TWEETS

  (Mr. GARAMENDI asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, well, the latest tweets from the 
President:
  ``So many people at the higher ends of intelligence loved my press 
conference performance in Helsinki.''
  Obviously, he is referring to Putin, because there are not many 
people in the United States who saw that press conference as a success. 
In fact, it was an unmitigated disaster.
  Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats said, ``The red lights 
are blinking.'' Our election process, our critical infrastructure, is 
being attacked by Russia, and what is the House of Representatives 
doing today? Eliminating funding to protect our election process.
  Obviously, those who vote for this reduction in funding are not at 
the higher levels of intelligence.
