Meet the Press interviews for 2023 races: on Government Reform


Asa Hutchinson: Supreme Court needs to be transparent on reporting rules

The Court needs to be transparent. They need to be clear on what their reporting rules are. They need to review those to make sure they're very similar to the other public officials and branches of government, which has broad reporting requirements. Clearly, they have not been sufficient. They've changed those. But I think they need this step so the American people understand what the rules are, and what is required, and is similar to other public officials.

Vivek Ramaswamy: Shut down the FBI and replace it with something new

I didn't say defund the FBI, I said shut down the FBI and replace it with something new.

I think it's a new apparatus built from scratch that actually respects the law instead of making it up. When you have a bureaucracy whose culture becomes so ossified, every once in a while, you need to turn it over.
