Rep. Brian Babin, with just two days heading into President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, told Newsmax Saturday it's time to return the United States "to its rightful place as the number-one superpower in the world."
"[W]e have to get back to the basics," the Texas Republican told Newsmax's "Saturday Agenda." "I'm looking forward to seeing Donald Trump back in there."
Trump's first day in office will be busy because he needs to enact "dozens of executive orders," to roll back "this insane policy of Joe Biden, Alejandro Mayorkas, and open borders, and Kamala Harris and the rest of these woke Democrats."
Meanwhile, Babin said he has met with Trump border czar Tom Homan, who he called the "real deal" in plans to secure the border.
"I've worked with him for a number of years," he said. "I'm the Border Security Caucus co-chair. But Homan has got experience. He's got the grit to restore our border."
Meanwhile, Biden has been "trying to spend money like a drunk sailor" before he leaves office, and he has granted legal status "to over a million illegal aliens," said Babin.
"I can tell you that we're going to be rolling back these outrageous executive orders he's been trying to do here in the last few minutes and days of his administration," he added.
Trump will also restore the strength of the military upon taking office.
"I was with him last Friday evening at Mar-a-Lago," he said. "I can tell you, as a chairman of the Science, Space and Technology Committee, we are going to restore our military, which has been decimated by woke, outrageous policies under Joe Biden. No more woke nonsense."
The Pentagon under Trump will be "about meritocracy" along with being ready and defeating the enemies of the United States, as "it should have been all along," said Babin.
Military recruitment quotas will also be met under Trump, as "quite a few Americans, young ones, did not want to serve in a woke military," Babin added, noting that Pete Hegseth, the Defense secretary nominee, will ensure that the U.S. military "remains the best fighting force in the world."
