IN CASE YOU MISSED IT... Sen. Rick Scott Joins Fox News Sunday to Discuss Iran, FISA, Socialist Hasan Piker

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Yesterday, Senator Rick Scott joined Fox News Sunday to discuss the ongoing situation in Iran, the need for reforms to FISA, and Yale platforming terrorism-promoting socialist podcaster, Hasan Piker, at their once-prestigious university. HIGHLIGHTS FROM SENATOR SCOTT-S INTERVIEW: REGARDING IRAN: "What we have got to do is make sure Iran never has a chance to have a nuclear weapon. I mean, look: this is a regime that has been killing Americans for 47 years, taken money, like that Obama gave them, and used it to fund proxies, Houthis, Hezbollah, Hamas. They-ve never complied with anything." "Every President has said since Truman that they have the ability to use the military to protect Americans… This president has that right and he-s doing the right thing." REGARDING FISA: "We have to make changes. Now think about this: After January 6th, I was surveilled, alright. During the Obama years, they released my tax returns. Alright, when I ran large hospital companies, they targeted my company because I was against Hillary-care. So, if they can target a large company CEO and a U.S. Senator, they can target Americans." "We have to have some commonsense changes. Nobody at the FBI has ever been held accountable for the over 200 thousand Americans who have been surveilled. Nobody." REGARDING YALE HOSTING HASAN PIKER: "Well, first off [Hasan Piker] wants me killed. He wants every capitalist murdered. He said that we deserved 9/11. He-s clearly antisemitic. Democrats are campaigning with this guy." "This is the Democrat Party today, and that-s why I-m finished with Yale. The Democrat Party supports this stuff. Yale, if they want to go and support someone who wants capitalists murdered in this country… I don-t want them to get any federal funding." REGARDING THE SAVE AMERICA ACT: "It-s real simple, you should have to have an ID to vote. You should have to show your American citizenship to register to vote. It-s overwhelming. Over 80% of Americans, Republicans, Democrats, independents want this." ###
