“We need to continue to hold the Democrats’ feet to the fire because they created this mess in the first place, but now we’re all obligated to try to fix it.”
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON – Today on Fox News’ The Faulkner Focus, U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) praised the Trump administration, including Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, for its handling of the Venezuela boat strikes following a Senate-wide briefing, condemned the Australia terror attack and rise in antisemitism, and blasted Democrats for trying to deflect blame for the abject failures of Obamacare. Excerpts of Sen. Cornyn’s remarks are below, and video can be found here.
On Administration’s Briefing on Venezuela Boat Strikes:
“The briefers, Secretary Rubio, Secretary Hegseth, and others did a good job of explaining the careful planning that went into these strikes and the legal justification, which is consistent, as Senator Graham has said, with other previous interventions by other administrations in the region. Cocaine, fentanyl – these are weapons of mass destruction being trafficked by designated terrorist organizations.”
“I was satisfied with what I heard and I’m glad President Trump is doing what needs to be done in order to save American lives.”

On Australia Terror Attack:
“Tragically, this is another horrible reminder there are sleeper cells of basically terrorists that have either been radicalized overseas or have been radicalized in place, who are willing to kill innocent people, and of course, in this instance, targeting the Jewish community.”
“There has been a rise of antisemitism that needs to be rebuked by the Left and the Right because it is unacceptable.”
“This is a very sad, sad occasion, but it unfortunately means we need to maintain our vigilance. Thank goodness here in the United States, the FBI and the Department of Justice are doing a good job disrupting terrorist plots, but this could happen anywhere.”

On Democrats’ Health Care Lies:
“Democrats are trying to deflect the blame. They are the ones that created this situation, where the premiums and the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare exchanges are going up 18% this next year. That’s unsustainable.”
“President Trump is correct to say let’s send the money to the consumer and not to the insurance companies.”
“We need to continue to hold the Democrats’ feet to the fire because they created this mess in the first place, but now we’re all obligated to try to fix it.”
