United States Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) appeared on Fox Business' Mornings With Maria to discuss several pressing issues, including the Colorado State Supreme Court's ruling to remove former President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot, the House of Representatives impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, and the Houthis' attacks in the Red Sea.
Regarding the Colorado ruling, Hagerty expressed his concern about the potential disenfranchisement of half of Colorado's voters. He criticized the lack of due process and deemed the decision a blatant political move. "I think the American public is going to see right through it," he stated. Hagerty emphasized his support for President Trump and highlighted the desperation of the Biden Administration. He claimed that the attacks on Trump and the democratic process were mere distractions from the real threat posed by rulings like this.
When asked about a potential Supreme Court intervention, Hagerty believed that the case would eventually reach the highest court. He expressed confidence in the Supreme Court's ability to uphold the principles of justice and criticized the Democrats' attempts to undermine the public's trust in the court.
Hagerty also compared the policies of President Biden and President Trump, arguing that Biden falls far behind Trump in terms of success and public perception. He highlighted issues such as border control, the influx of fentanyl into the country, rising crime rates, and the handling of international conflicts. According to Hagerty, Biden's policies have led to a loss of control and a lack of improvement for the American people. He suggested that the Democrats' strategy to regain the White House is to destroy their opposition rather than present compelling policies.
The senator also addressed the ongoing investigation into the Biden family's alleged corruption. Hagerty questioned the Department of Justice's attempts to cover up the investigation, citing contradicting statements made by Attorney General Merrick Garland. He accused the DOJ of diverting and delaying the investigation, which he believed was mounting evidence against Joe Biden. Hagerty pointed out the involvement of foreign countries like China, Russia, and Ukraine in the alleged corruption and criticized the media's response to the issue.
Lastly, Hagerty expressed his deep concern about the Biden Administration's decision to remove the Houthis from the Foreign Terrorist Organization list. He emphasized the potential impact on insuring maritime cargo and the need to maintain control of the Red Sea. Hagerty argued that the Biden Administration's actions were aimed at appeasing Iran, highlighting their efforts to rejoin the failed Iran nuclear deal. He suggested that enforcing the sanctions imposed on Iran during the Trump administration would have prevented Iran and its proxies from engaging in destabilizing activities.
In his interview on Fox Business, Senator Bill Hagerty discussed the Colorado ruling, the Biden impeachment inquiry, and the Biden Administration's handling of the Houthis. He criticized the Colorado Supreme Court's decision, expressed concern about the potential disenfranchisement of voters, and emphasized the desperation of the Biden Administration. Hagerty compared the policies of Biden and Trump, highlighting the failures of the current administration. He also raised questions about the DOJ's handling of the Biden family corruption investigation and criticized the Biden Administration's decision to remove the Houthis from the Foreign Terrorist Organization list.
