Can someone explain how they could read my e2e Signal chat messages to my wife about what I'm cooking for dinner?

Can someone explain how they could read my e2e Sessions chat message sent via TOR to my wife about what I'm cooking for dinner?

Genuinely curious. Can those that are in power break this encryption?

The idea isn't to break encryption, it's to have apps implement client-side scanning "pre-encryption".

Yes, what is proposed is breaking the end-to-end security model, not breaking the encryption itself.

Effectively it causes the same loss of security and trust as if they broke the encryption, but it allows them the fig-leaf of pretending that you're still secure because they "haven't broken the encryption".
