I hope and pray. Listen, there's a combination of two things working.

I think the president was explicit with Mexico and Canada. He said he will impose these tariffs unless they secure the border.

I think Merrick Garland will go down in history as the most partisan attorney general our nation has ever seen.

I authored and passed a resolution in the Senate that passed unanimously calling for Mark Swidan's return to America.

I hope a similar dynamic is playing out. And if we can see more hostages come home, that would be cause for enormous celebration.

I want a Department of Justice and an FBI that enforces the law regardless of party.

I think the president has a mandate to deliver on securing the border, and I look forward to working hand in hand with him to deliver on that promise.

It is tragic. That is not what the FBI is for. That is not what the DOJ is for.

I think the entire slate of Cabinet nominees President Trump has put forward is very strong.

I think either he will resign or President Trump will fire him.

There has never been a period in our nation's history where the FBI has suffered a greater loss of respect.

I believe every one of these Cabinet nominees is going to be confirmed by the Senate.

I think Kash Patel is a very strong nominee.

I expect we will once again enter into remain-in-Mexico.

I think one of the very first bills we're going to take up in the Senate... is my legislation the Justice for Jocelyn Act.

This is a promise that I believe President Trump is going to deliver on and deliver quickly.

I will tell you, representing Texas, we've seen four years of an invasion at our southern border.

Look, we are living in a world where one of our two major political parties can no longer figure out what is a woman. That didn't use to be a trick question.

This is a battle between sane and crazy.

It is a full-on invasion.

Kamala can't have my gun. She can't have my gasoline engine and she sure as hell can't have my steaks and cheeseburgers.

This Administration--every lunatic on Earth that wants to kill us this Administration gives money to.

Did that make us more safe or less safe?

What about the $6 billion in hostage payments?

If fact, they have gotten a lot worse.
