Highlights from Senator Marshall’s interview include:

On HHS Secretary nominee RFK, Jr. getting across the finish line:

“I think that he’ll make it across the finish line. This may be down partisan lines, but I just want to thank all the people that reached out to their Senators in support of Bobby Kennedy, Jr. Look, he’s going to be a great disruptor. He’s going to focus on chronic health and trying to make people healthy again by preventing these diseases, by focusing on proper nutrition, by decreasing the toxins we are exposed to. I think he’s going to be a game-changer.” 

“So, yeah, the Democrats are going to bring out all the all the tools that they’ve got. They’re just really hung up on a couple issues. It feels like a barroom brawl here in DC right now, but we’ll get him across the finish line.”

On history, importance of the National Prayer Breakfast:

“America’s faith has provided a moral compass for this nation since its beginning. This country was founded by people of faith, and from President Washington to President Lincoln and then President Eisenhower, who really kicked this thing off in 1953 have all been people of faith that have turned to their faith in those most crucial moments in history.” 

“And I just want to take people back to 1953 President Eisenhower, former five-star Supreme Allied Commander, is now the president of the United States, and a senator from Kansas reaches out to the President. Says, How are you doing, Mr. President? And he says, Look, this is the loneliest job in the world right now. They invite him to a prayer breakfast that turns into this National Prayer Breakfast, a day when this country gets on our knees and says, Look, God, we’ve fallen short. We’ve drifted away. We need you. We want to be on your side. And I think that’s the theme you’re going to hear tomorrow is that America is on God’s side, and we’re just so grateful, and just want to be that shining city on the hill again. So faith a very important his part of this nation’s history.” 

On President Trump protecting women and girls in sports:

“I just appreciate the President leadership’s once again, that he’s doing what he said he was going to do. Promises made, promises kept.”

“I was in middle school when Title IX was passed, 1972 and I think many people, everyone would agree with me that it was day and night when that happened, and all of a sudden there were more opportunities for young ladies to compete in sports.”

“I have yet to meet a person that thinks it’s okay for boys to compete against girls, let alone boys be in the girls’ locker rooms…It’s not safe for boys to compete in girls’ sports, and it’s not fair. This country was built on fairness enough. So I appreciate President Trump’s leadership. Once again, promises made, promises kept from Donald J. Trump.”
