James Lankford: “Let's just do funding for FEMA, for Secret Service, for TSA…”

“So it's bizarre to me, the side by side of this, that Iran's okay and ICE is bad. So what we're trying to do is very, very simple. Let's just do funding for FEMA, for Secret Service, for TSA agents, for Coast Guard, for our cybersecurity professionals. Those are the folks that are all on furlough right now, while literally we're at a war with Iran right now. So it is very important that we actually have all of our homeland security fully funded.” (05:29–05:37)
