Senator Roger Marshall, M.D., appeared on American Agenda on Newsmax to express his criticism of the $95 billion foreign aid bill that prioritizes Ukraine's borders over America's borders. The bill was passed in an unconventional overnight vote. Senator Marshall emphasized the need for the United States to prioritize its own interests, stating, "Look, we’re gonna be there to help you but we shouldn’t have to drive the whole ship. I think it’s their [NATO’s] turn to step up. And I think that’s exactly what President Trump is saying. Yes, America is first."

He further highlighted the pressing issues faced by the United States, including the national debt, porous borders, and rising crime rates. Senator Marshall criticized President Biden for creating a "lawless society" and expressed his commitment to putting America first, stating, "I’m not a globalist. President Trump is not a globalist. I’m a patriot. I’m an America First senator."

Regarding President Biden's priorities, Senator Marshall stated, "All along Joe Biden’s priority was never to secure the border, his priority was always to get the funding for Ukraine, and then this charade of pretending like he was trying to do something on the border. All he wanted to do was grease the skids to get more people across the finish line."

Senator Marshall also voiced his concerns about the surge of migrants crossing the border and criticized President Biden's actions, saying, "He [Joe Biden] has the legal authority to say this is an emergency and literally close the border down. And remember, he walked into the White House, we had a secure border. He then issued over 90 executive orders to enhance that flow across the border. Not only did he not want to stop it, but he actually encouraged more and more people to cross the border."

In addition to his concerns about foreign aid and border security, Senator Marshall addressed the issue of Temu, a Chinese Communist Party-backed company that ran ads during the Super Bowl. He warned the public about the company's practices, stating, "People need to realize what Temu is. It’s basically how the Chinese government gets counterfeits into America. Remember, 90% of counterfeits that come into America, made in China." He further cautioned against sharing personal information with Temu, as it could lead to data theft and the purchase of counterfeit products.

Shifting gears, Senator Marshall celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl victory and expressed his excitement for the upcoming parade, stating, "I’m getting ready for the big parade here tomorrow in Kansas City. I can’t wait to go out there and cheer the Chiefs on. Look, this was a great team victory. So proud of all the efforts, the coaches, the players. Underdogs the whole way made it even more special. Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs!"

Senator Roger Marshall, M.D., made his views known on the prioritization of Ukraine's borders over America's borders in the foreign aid bill. He stressed the need for the United States to put its own interests first and called for securing the border and addressing the nation's funding problems. Furthermore, he warned the public about the Chinese Communist Party-backed company Temu and its potential risks. Finally, Senator Marshall celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl victory and expressed his support for the team.
