In this Gateway Pundit article, David Greyson covers Senator James Lankford’s appearance on Fox News Sunday, where he discussed President Trump’s handling of Iran, border enforcement funding, FISA, and Bill Pulte’s temporary intelligence role.
- Lankford said President Trump is taking the right approach with Iran by refusing to be “strung along” into a weak agreement.
- He argued that Iran must give up its nuclear weapons ambitions, stop supporting terrorism, and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- Lankford framed Trump’s posture as one of pressure and diplomacy rather than rushing into direct military action.
- The article says Lankford credited Trump’s economic and strategic pressure on Iran with weakening the regime’s leverage.
- Lankford also defended additional funding for ICE and CBP, saying Democrats are blocking money needed for border enforcement.
- On Bill Pulte’s appointment as acting Director of National Intelligence, Lankford said Pulte is not qualified for the permanent role because he lacks a national security background.
- Lankford warned that letting FISA lapse over objections to Pulte’s temporary appointment would be dangerous and would embolden America’s enemies.
- The article portrays Lankford as backing Trump’s Iran strategy while still taking issue with the administration’s intelligence personnel decision.
