Martha McSally: COVID: Virus came from China; hold China accountable

McSally praised the administration's China travel ban, while placing the blame for the pandemic on China and the nation's response. "This virus came from China, they silenced doctors, they destroyed samples, they blamed it on the U.S. Army, and we need to hold China accountable," she said.

Mark Kelly: Hasn't thought much on Jerusalem embassy; seems to work

When asked about Trump's decision to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, Kelly was agnostic. "I haven't given it a ton of thought," he said. "It's gone, it's been moved, seems to be working. A lot of the folks that were critical of it and said all this negative stuff is going to happen, that doesn't seem to me that those things took place. But I haven't given it a ton of thought on moving an office from one building to another."
