Rep. Beth Van Duyne, R-Texas, in an interview on Newsmax Saturday called the White House's efforts to charter flights for Americans wishing to leave Israel "a start."
"I'm glad that they're actually taking priority of getting Americans out right now. We have no idea how many Americans have been taken hostage." She cited recent events such as the situation in Afghanistan, the U.S. response to Russia, and the approach to China as examples of what she saw as weak leadership from the administration. "Let's face it, we're in this position because we have seen so much weakness," she said.
Van Duyne said one of her top priorities as a representative from Texas is ensuring border security. She highlighted a recent bill that included significant spending cuts and forced the inclusion of a border security bill, which she saw as a crucial step in addressing border security concerns.
