U.S. Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) appeared on Fox Business' "Mornings with Maria" to discuss various topics, including President Trump's recent legislative achievement and issues surrounding immigration and the Biden administration.
Schmitt praised the signing of the One Big Beautiful Bill into law, highlighting its benefits for American taxpayers. "It’s a beautiful win," Schmitt stated. He emphasized that the bill prevents a significant tax increase and includes funding for school choice, border security, and military operations. The senator noted that key priorities were secured in advance to prevent potential future funding blockages by Democrats.
On immigration, Schmitt criticized Democrats for not condemning violence against ICE agents. He asserted that border security has improved under current policies and called for mass deportation as a response to illegal immigration. "You meet mass migration with mass deportation," he said.
Addressing amnesty for illegal immigrants, Schmitt reaffirmed opposition to such measures, citing the need to prioritize American workers affected by globalist policies. He argued that technological advancements could play a crucial role in creating job opportunities domestically.
Regarding Joe Biden's presidency, Schmitt raised questions about decision-making during what he referred to as the "autopen presidency." He expressed concerns about unauthorized actions and indicated ongoing investigations into these matters.
