U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) appeared on Fox News Sunday to address several pressing issues. During the interview with Shannon Bream, Senator Cornyn discussed Republicans' push for border policy changes, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) Section 702 reform, and the impeachment inquiry into President Biden.
Regarding the push for border policy changes, Senator Cornyn dismissed the notion that a deal would be cut behind closed doors and jammed through the Senate and House. He emphasized that this issue goes beyond money and highlights the need for policies that can effectively stem the flow of mass migration and drug trafficking across the border. Senator Cornyn stated, "All we are asking for the President to do is to actually enforce the law, and now that we have the purse strings of Congress that Congress controls, we are hoping to use that as leverage to change those policies."
Senator Cornyn also addressed the topic of FISA reform, acknowledging that there have been abuses in the past. He expressed agreement with Senator Lee's stance on the need for correct reforms to prevent such abuses in the future. However, he emphasized the importance of not blinding ourselves to the threats posed by foreign adversaries. Senator Cornyn stated, "I hope we will fix it and not nix it, and I expect that will happen in the coming months."
Regarding the impeachment inquiry into President Biden, Senator Cornyn highlighted the Democrats' previous attempts to impeach former President Trump. He supported the ongoing inquiry, citing the need for the investigation to continue. He stated, "The investigation is revealing new and very serious evidence along the way." Senator Cornyn cautioned against premature declarations of victory, emphasizing that the investigation is still ongoing.
In summary, Senator Cornyn's appearance on Fox News Sunday addressed critical issues such as border policy changes, FISA reform, and the Biden impeachment inquiry. He emphasized the need for effective policies to address mass migration and drug trafficking at the border, while also calling for correct reforms to prevent abuses under FISA. Finally, Senator Cornyn supported the ongoing impeachment inquiry, highlighting the importance of a thorough investigation before any conclusions are drawn.
