The Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act was brought to the Senate as an amendment by Lindsey Graham as part of the $70 billion budget reconciliation package funding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol.
The usual senate suspects, Thom Tillis, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins and Mitch McConnell voted with Democrats to kill the SAVE America Act amendment. 75% of Americans support the requirement for voter ID, the Senate doesn’t want that.
WASHINGTON – Four Senate Republicans broke ranks to kill another effort to pass President Donald Trump’s marquee voter ID and election integrity legislation as the GOP marches to fund immigration enforcement.
Just like last time, Sens. Susan Collins, R-Maine, Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, and Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and Thom Tills, R-N.C., joined all Democrats to thwart the move.
It’s the second attempt by Republicans to attach the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act to their budget reconciliation package, and the second time that they’ve failed to get the legislation across the line months after launching a quasi-floor takeover to debate the bill.

In related news, after three days California has only counted 63% of the vote and Spencer Pratt is losing ground on his second-place finish.
Simply can’t run a constitutional republic with traitorous leeches like this. We can’t even get a ballroom built with private funding. In the end, the problem is the voters. They elected them.
It’s quite stunning that with all of this he evidence before you that you state unequivocally that voters elected them.
Alaska-Ranked Choice Voting. Just another way to manipulate votes to install Establishment UniParty RINOS.
Maine has ranked choice as well.
That’s what’s called “pretending not to know things.” It’s everywhere. Even here!
Bingo
Some people just don’t pay attention to the global voter fraud that they continue to count until the outcome they prefer is reached.
Voters are the blanket of cover
Live in NC. Voted for him six years ago. Voted for him b/c he said he was a conservative and would support those values. He lied. Voters are not always to blame!
Same here. Tillis needs to be the poster boy for a mechanism to recall Senators who announce their retirement and then spend the rest of their term in office destroying the country. It may be smart for him to find another address other than NC. He’s looking really old and stressed. Maybe Pulte can expose his corruption and he knows it.
We are presented with two, maybe three choices on an election ballot.
What do you suggest we do? It’s choice between two evils. I would not even call a RINO candidate the lesser of two evils. They are one and the same.
Initially candidates are screened and approved, financially backed by the state RNC or DNC. Would it surprise us to find out they are working together toward the goal of a UniParty?
Works for Putin.
The Uniparty is far worse than your boogyman, Putin. At least, he actually loves his country.
The Uniparty wants to destroy the Republic, as founded. For real.
You can take your Ukrainian Nazi love somewhere else.
That is where the real fight is – with the local committees.
As long as these are entangled in the grasp of the UniParty power, very few real patriots will get through. Those that do will get the Spencer Pratt treatment – election fraud to chip away at his success, until it is no success at all.
And yes, we the voters ALLOW this go unchallenged, because it has been portrayed as uncivilized, tyrannical, and even criminal to treat these parasites as they must be treated. No one wants to get down from the fence, ignore the UniParty’s demands, rants, raves, and judicial decrees, and do as Donald Trump is doing – getting successful enough to win in spite of the system, and tear it apart legally.
Even so, I see the day coming – and it may already be here, though I do not advocate for it – that stronger measures would have to be taken. Our RINO’s and political Left are narrowing the options to either compliance, or Pinochet.
Prayers for several Trump proteges to take up this cause after Trump passes the torch, so that Pinochet is not the last option available.
We don’t allow this to happen. The candidates are hand picked by the political party to do the bidding of their financial backers and individual high profile, deep pocket donors.
This is augmented by the press which does the same thing.
I advocate for limited campaign times and strict limits on funding. We are in perpetual campaign season and no one knows where the money is coming from except the beneficiaries.
IIRC, Murkowski was twice sanctioned by the Alaskan Republican Party, ran as a write-in candidate against the party nominee and won with Democrat support. She won re-election after Alaska changed to a Ranked Voting System where she is the default 2nd choice on most Democrat ballots.
You’re assuming that all those votes were valid.
Who is questioning it at this time, when it can matter?
WHEN, and I do mean WHEN, it comes out that the 2020 election was indeed stolen through fraud, what exactly is going to be done after the fact? Prosecute the participants and benefactors of the fraud? Like that will happen.
No, the collective “wisdom” will be to simply pass it over – it’s in the past, and what was done can’t be taken back. All that would do is pave the road of precedent for the next round of corruption.
Another Battle of Athens must take place – and repeated as many times as necessary – because the election process needs to be as clear and transparent as possible. That means bringing accountability to the people – something a plurality in this society shrink away from.
And HONEST!
The Battle of Athens was an inherently American response to chronic electoral fraud, one which seems impossible to replicate in a total surveillance state.
…. when men were men.
The problem is they no longer represent the voters. Every House “representative” has 750,000 constituents. Do you “feel” represented?
Article 1 Section 2 of the Constitution specifically states that “The Number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty Thousand.”
It has never been challenged in court. The House just reset the limits by itself.
Census.gov says the current population is 342,549,327 (June 6, 2026).
At one rep to 30,000 people, that will make 11,419 reps.
Think the fraud & corruption is bad now with 436 members, just think how bad it would be with 11,419 of them.
I sure don’t know what the answer is, but having 11,419 of these critters probably isn’t it.
Well, maybe that’s a good thing. Having to divide the graft among 11,419 of them instead of only 435 may keep your standard grifter off the ballot, seeing that there isn’t as much to steal.
On the other hand, though, if the graft increased proportionally, then we’d be screwed for sure. Wow…
And yet some Treepers still suggest we add Puerto Rico, Cuba, or Alberta as states! There’s enough dysfunction and corruption without piling on.
Shhhh, don’t give them any ideas!
Try writing your congresscritter and ask them when we’re going to see a balanced budget. You’ll find out how “represented” you are, i.e., not at all.
With all the issues we know of election fraud/cheating you seriously think these traitors keep getting ‘elected’? Lol
There’s a reason they fight so hard to maintain the status quo and their ridiculous ‘bipartisanship.’
The Demoncrats Cheat.
It’s not the voters.
If they can steal a presidential election claiming the vegetable got 81 million votes, rigged state elections are a breeze.
It is election fraud not voter fraud. They use ballots not voters or legitimate voters to win.
Are you sure about that? I’m persuaded that machines are electing these charlatans.
Both ….ballots and machines.
“elected”????
You can’t despise them enough
It’s why the GOP has NO loyalty from conservatives across America.
This crap has gone on for yrs, 2, 3, 4, 5; whatever votes are NEEDED to screw America, the GOP delivers.
It’s HOW it always works.
Tillis from NC is NOT running for re-election. Any wonder why? Of course, he can’t and won’t get re-elected and he’s ticked off and burning the GOP DOWN as he goes out. He’s voted this last for quite a while now.
Thune ALLOWED this to occur. If Thune wanted the Act to approve, HE WOULD HAVE PLACED THE HEAT on everyone of these members. He didn’t and it’s ON HIM.
It’s despicable. You can’t hate them enough.
And all the while I’ll bet the GOP is nowhere to be found in Ca as 2 GOP members get HOSED in the mayor and gov race.
Latest ballot drop of 24,000. Pratt received 0 votes. Yes, out of 24,000, nada, zilch….tell anyone that’s humanely possible…..
And the GOP whistles by the graveyard…life is good.
If your constituents don’t care and keep re-electing you why should you worry? That is what we are seeing in the Senate. Why rock the boat and cause yourself problems? The status quo is a very comfortable place for them.
That’s why they’re screaming about Paxton right now – the people of Texas threw out the RINO, an even the beloved splitting the vote scheme that saved Cornyn (and other RINO’s) in the past, did not work this time.
But this swamped the work of the local and state committees – something rarely done. Yet, until this becomes the norm rather than the exception, we will still be plagued by UniParty machinations.
The sleazy, slimy rotten DemoCommies know they can get away with it so they become more emboldened every election cycle. The spineless, traitorous, complicit RINOs don’t care and look the other way. The lying, leftist, fake news media run cover for them and feed the lazy, apathetic masses an endless heaping helping of putrid bullshit. It’s no wonder that the communists have infiltrated every corner of our society. God help us!
A few years ago I writing that both parties are dead. They still are. Trump gave us hope to try to participate at a time when Hillary was proposing that we as a nation needed to make voting mandatory (because so many people could see what a joke it is and no longer bothered.). They have no reason to care about how angry people are. They think that the divisiveness they have sown among us is sufficient. I pray that it is not.
I think it’s about time for a serious audit of those 4 (along with all the dems). The only explanation is corruption. Nobody’s that stupid.
Yeah, and repeal/eliminate the 17th amendment! Go back to the way the Founders established it, not the corrupt bank!!!
There might be something to this, isn’t Tillis the one who threatened not to confirm any more judges or nominees until the investigation into Jerome Powell’s corruption was ended?
He was strangely, irrationally, enraged about that investigation.
Rest assured Tillis will be well taken care off when out of office. Someone please make the SCOTUS revisit Citizens United.
Here’s hoping Pulte is the man for the job.
Of course these 4 worthless RINO’s voted ‘No’ as a TDS statement on this amendment to the Reconciliation Bill, but it did not really affect the outcome as the vote needed 3/5ths (60 votes) majority to pass anyway. So even if they had voted ‘Yea’ it would not have passed without 7 Democratics also voting ‘Yea’.
At least the reconciliation bill itself passed.
Cold anger

what is the work around?
We’re keeping our fraudulent elections in place whether you like it or not.
BINGO!
Here in california a 14 percent lead is nothing once they start counting “late ballots”. It is so infuriating. Newsom made mail in standard here after Covid.
Fire-starter ain’t he?
I wrote yesterday:
‘In the LA race for Mayor, NBC’s stat-guy, Steve Kornacki, reported the Election Day in person vote heavily favored dumping Karen Bass. He noted that only 10% to 15% of the total vote in the primary was cast in person on Election Day, as it has been in recent California elections. Kornacki was unwittingly revealing something bigger:
There is no Election Day in California. They just pretend there is one.
Election Day has been methodically squeezed out of existence by the early and late by-mail connivance.’ This IS the existential threat to the Constitutional Republic. Keep in mind there are about 8 million ineligible voter registrations on the California rolls and a large number of them are in LA county says, Unite4Freedom. This is the corrupt data base which feeds the by-mail malfeasance. It happens through the by mail early and late vote injections. This is the candle lit on both ends. It has burned Election Day out of existence in California.
This is the stuff on which Third World Governments are made. How does the rest of the country accept this farce without serious intervention through Federal law enforcement? California sends 54 federal representatives to Congress and votes 54 electors for President and Vice President.
The national disgrace doesn’t end there. The election of all state and local officials can be tagged civil rights violations by millions of Californians. France has near double the population of California. Done ‘by hand,’ the French have their election results before the next day begins.
It was back in 1975 that the French permanently ended mail-in voting. A comprehensive investigation convinced them that it was simply not possible to eliminate fraudulent ballots, so they decided to completely ban the process.
I wish we were as smart as the French.
The entire planet has known this about the US for years and years. They mock us to our face yet we have a significant percentage of our population that still doesn’t know? I knew decades ago when I became old enough to vote. I didn’t understand the why or how but I knew it wasn’t functioning as advertised.
Colorado is the same. In fact, when the drop boxes were exposed as a way to dump votes in the middle of the night, Colorado added MORE dump boxes. Drive up to you local rec center every day and add a few “ballots” during ‘election season’ and no one will be the wiser.
Yep. There’s always multiple wins to every action once you get near the top.
Remind me please.
Why do we need these old fossils?
Their era is coming to an end. Tillis – gone; the Turtle – gone, and good riddance. I don’t know why Maine is so desperate for a Dim senator when Collins always delivers for them.
Yesterday got an email from the GOP asking for money for Collins. It said we can’t let the democrats outspend Collins.
I wouldn’t give Collins a damned dime. And Maine should be completely and utterly ashamed of itself given its Federal congressional delegation. ALL of them suck.
The same GOP which spent over $100 million trying to salvage their deep state man in Texas, John Cornyn, over MAGA Ken Paxton.
Why give them money to work against us? It’s like continuing to fund “NGOs,” non-government organizations, so they can use your money to import the whole third world.
And yet every one of them will receive funds from the republican party for their reelections and/or post-politics pity party.
There have to be consequences, if only to signal to the others.
This is why I quit the republican party and will never vote republican again.
As long as Thune refuses to replace the Senate Parliamentarian, the Senate Republicans are going to have trouble getting legislation through the Senate.
McDonough was Harry Reid’s choice. That’s enough of a reason to replace her.
Senate parliamentarian does not exist in the Constitution.
Her job should be eliminated.
True, it was created in 1935.
Haven’t you twigged to it yet? Thune doesn’t WANT to get Republican legislation through the Senate. He’s RINO top to bottom.
Of course I have “twigged” to it. It’s been obvious since Thune took over that Thune would continue McConnell’s policies but without the public antipathy of McConnell. Privately, I assume Thune and McConnell have the same opinion of Trump.
And us. They have the same opinion of us. Lisa Page and Peter Strzok put it in writing, we smell like Wal-Mart shoppers.
It takes TIME to forge all those ballots dontcha know
Actually, they have been sitting in boxes in a warehouse awaiting the next election(s). “How many do you need? We’ll ship ‘em out right away for same day delivery!”
What bothers me most about this is Thune’s ineffectiveness and disloyalty. He has no control over McConnell, Murkowski, and Collins. Tiillis is a worthless man. He’s a lying scumbag who is protecting Jerome Powell for some reason. Wouldn’t an FBI raid on their homes, searching for gold bars or classified documents, be a good idea?
Wow, what a great idea! How about a forensic audit of 535 members of CONgress? The classified document idea is excellent given what Bolton just did.
There is not 1 member of the “r” side of the UniParty with any integrity. Not 1 has come forward to replace McThune, not 1.
And it’s been said many times here, we can’t hate them enough.
One of Bill Pulte’s private sector skills is… a forensic accountant.
After writing two letters to Sen. Rick Scott asking for passage for the SAVE Act, I saw this video appear yesterday. Scott is pressuring Thune!
https://rumble.com/v7at65y-rick-scott-drops-a-mean-girls-parody-to-push-the-save-america-act.html
How long can the turtle keep clogging the swamp Drain?
If he worked anywhere else they would have told him to go home by NOW.
He’s here until the end of the year. A new session of Congress starts in 2027, with the new members.
With Thune already cracking his whip to make sure he is the Majority Leader, carrying on McConnell’s legacy. The MAGA elects would then be pigeon-holed and made toothless, if he had his way.
Until some of the R’s actually grow some huevos, the UniParty will always find a way to subvert the will of the electorate.
Many fossils will return. They just can’t afford to let go!
Need to flush harder, turtles have a hard shell – he’ll be (physically) gone after January. He’s been mentally gone for quite some time now.
swamp establishment of Republicans need get em out MAGA,
So, would the Nazi really be that much worse than Susan Collins?
If it comes down to the two of them, I’m writing in a different name.
Brilliant! Allow Dems to control the senate. Really smart
How is that materially different from what happens now?
President Trump would be actually be convicted of their next fabricated impeachment charge. And therefore removed from office.
Then they would use the same pretend claims against VP Vance to remove him, probably saying he was in on … whatever the pretext.
Then the Speaker of the House would become president, and with the left’s great competence at stealing elections we know who that might be: President Jeffries.
Other than that huge risk, no difference at all.
Who would you for for? A backstabbing traitor or an enemy?
The dynamic of choosing the lesser of two weevils is enabling the continued abuse and going along with the farce changes nothing about the end state except for how long it takes to get there. With Uniparty Republicans it is only a bit slower than would with the Dems.
Not playing the fake opposition game anymore.
Yes, the Nazi would be worse, because if control of the Senate shifted to the Dems, none of Trump’s judicial nominations would get approved.
Geriatric, evil creatures, all of them. I don’t get it – how much money do they need? Do they want their great great grandsons and daughters to be set for life?
There is no amount of money sufficient to live freely in the country they are leaving the following generations.
That’s a good point.
Remember the 4-6 Senate seats that were Stolen?? I do…..By stealing those seats it allowed situations like this to happen which was the point….All designed to run out the clock on President Trump’s agenda…
What were the reasons they voted against it? Where any given? Just wondering?
Mitch Biden making sound decisions ? I think Not
Our country is being destroyed on purpose. Sadly we aren’t going to be able to vote our way out of this.
No, we are not….
on purpose….
Thune’s picture should accompany the guilty.
Bye RINO filth…..
They want at the federal level to be able to have some control mechanisms for election outcomes and maintenance of the “two party” system. Election gaming, cheating and fraud as needed helps.
They want to further centralize federal power and total control. They are slowly and almost imperceptibly removing the 1A. Then they will have their basis for removal of the 2A. They know the 1A is highly problematic for them because the 2A logically follows from the 1A. Thus, elections will no longer be necessary. They’re signalling their intent with the “No Kings”, imho.
Exactly what they are doing. Advancing Communism by calling it Socialism. European Socialism is what was touted by Academics ie Professors at ‘Universities’ where everyone HAS to go to get a good job.
I was never in favor or impressed by European Socialism but everyone else around me sure was.
Sure, the state must always have kept intellectuals as a way of selling its ideas to the masses because the state must maintain legitimacy.
You may have also noticed that every despot looking to control the state must impose its ideas and always delegitimize the previous regimes kept intellectuals to rally the masses support. This is why the idea people are always attacked first. The state seeks to suppress ideas because it’s really ideas that rule the world. It’s just a question of whose ideas will rule.
We can’t just sit back and allow a communist takeover of our country or any of our states through fraudulent elections.
We do not vote. At least not on the left coast. They spend all kinds of money running a sham election and the outcome is whoever is most corrupt.
Honestly I don’t know what the answer is, but I do know one thing, elections in this country are about as far from elections as it gets.
They can’t pass the SAVE act, the lazy butts would have to find a new way to run the scam.
Not nearly enough people are disgusted.
We can scream and yell about the majority of the country supports the Save America Act but the motivation for them is simple.
They hate Trump. We put him in office. They’re giving us the finger. If we hated the Save America Act, it would pass tomorrow
Josh Hawley presided over a pro forma Senate session this week, so Trump would not be able to make any recess appointments. Thune has continued McConnell’s nastiness in this.
Hawley showed his true colors.
How do we hold these jackals accountable outside of the compromised elections
Dare i say it
We can call and email but they give us all the middle finger
What does history show how any new system of governance is formed when the people want a new system?
What did the Founders do when they established our great country?
What did Jefferson write? Something about a tree and watering?
The lesson is freedom and liberty are not given by tyrants, it must be taken.
Paging Paul Kersey
Fallacy of false equivalency.
Collins is relying solely on Boomers to get elected. The younger generations dislike her immensely, but unfortunately there’s not enough of us primary her out. And try as we might, we just cannot convince the baby boomers that a RINO who lets you down at with the most critical votes really isn’t better than a democrat.
Please note: for all the “good” pub that Republicans give Fetterman, the guy continues to vote Commie.
Just sayin….
Fetterman has made his position clear. He opposes only the mail-in voting clause and would support the rest. If Thune changed that clause to suit Fetterman, it would change the vote to 49-49 and Vance would be the 50th vote to pass it. I know a lot of you will argue against such but I’m in the 90% is better than nothing crowd on this.
As long mail in and machine counting is allowed nothing will change. Our votes do not change anything now except they did allow Trump to become President.
The reason they don’t care what we want is, our contributions are a pittance compared to the money they get from Companies, NGOs especially the many NGOs that Soros controls. Open Society this and Tides Foundation are 2 that come to mind. I doubt he even uses any of his money to pass through all of these entities. He has our money to pass around now.
Demented NY Dems Erase “Mother” From State Law, Replace Her With “Gestating Parent”
Very strange how rhe self-proclaimed feminists, champions of females, are allowing females to be systematically erased.
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/demented-ny-dems-erase-mother-state-law-replace-her-gestating-parent
They are not being properly motivated!
Repeal the 17th amendment. Triple the size of the House, make it remote and force Reps to live in their districts year-round.
You can then start moving agencies out of DC – Agriculture to Des Moines, Education to Anchorage, HHS to Kansas City, etc.
Bigger government? No thanks. Have you learned nothing? It should be so small we don’t even know it exists.
The SAVE America Act isn’t passing and there aren’t enough votes in the Senate to force it is because the the globalist operator John Thune doesn’t want it to pass. We can’t have any legislation pass that would stop the election installation machine the swamp has built. This cheat machine doesn’t only benefit democrat candidates, it’s bigger than that, the globalist swamp installs people based on who will support the globalist agenda regardless of party affiliation.
So crystal clear that come 2028 anything President Trump may have accomplished will be undone so ‘business’ continues as usual.
What reason do these senators give for opposing the act?
Thune, Thune, McConnell’s fool
The more they think, the more they drool.
they do not want to save america.
they do not care.
and they know they have had a seat they never actually won with real votes from real people.
this country has been sold out by its leadership.
they do not see this country needing to be saved….they see it as the problem to be removed.
When you can harvest the ballots, and take days to count it is not a secure or transparent process. MurCOWski, has never been a republican, the people in Alaska tried to vote her out but she changed the rules. Tillis is a dead man walking, I hope Karma pays him a visit soon. Don’t even get me started on McTurtle and His Chinese communist tied wife. When he dies ship is corpse to china so it can rot in their ground. Collins has been consistently inconsistent. She is not a reliable vote as she has all those knuckleheads who think Planter is going to win and be a better choice. At least two of them are going away.
With what the House did as well, the entire congress is in open revolt against the President…and the American people. Nobody is complying with Trump’s orders, or is afraid of what he could do. This is because he refused to begin arrests on Day 1, botched the Epstein files, didn’t gut the DoJ, fbi or the see eye a, didn’t completely overhaul State, and didn’t slam Thune up against the Oval wall and TELL him he WOULD confirm every appointee Trump wants or be arrested, then hurl him out of the office. Didn’t round up those responsible for the Butler pew pew, or any other attempts, didn’t drain the swamp, the list goes on and on. Now they’re even yanking Trump’s name off of everything, and stopping literally everything he has done or wants to do. Bad people soon see if someone is a paper tiger. Then they begin circling like hyenas…like post coup 2020…it’s happening again. I still believe something has happened to the President. He has changed. What, why and how are the questions. Can it be reversed? American must have the lion we voted for.
Murkowski and Collins are Democrats – they should switch to the appropriate party for their voting records. Tillis and McConnell are snakes.
Wanna give a shoutout to James T Harris broadcasting out of Phoenix. He runs a great show and they’re covering California today. His associate, Aaron, said we have to make elections too “real to steal.) 😁. Just had Juan Ciscomani on – great. Meanwhile I’ve been grabbing reads of Paul Krugman advocating for a national permanent purge of all MAGA Trump supporters. Shocking to see all the comments that are so ignorant. How? Krugman is coalescing all the intellectual low hanging fruit.
“Too real to steal.” I like it! A better idea than “too big to rig.”
They had Mark Lamb on later giving him opportunity to refute the dirt being thrown at him. He’s another one that I instinctively didn’t care for as soon as he surfaced but I will vote for him. He made true points and was well prepared for this opportunity.
I wonder if they voted against it NOW, so that could vote for it in October so they can leverage that for the reelection.
Senator Collins’ office didn’t have a specific reason why she voted against it, having previously stated she would support it. (Maybe the language changed, haha).
Is Graham Platner a stratagem by MAGA to defeat Susan Collins?
At least Tills and McConnell are gone at the end of this term. Collins may wish she had voted yes on the SAVE act by the time November rolls around. Desperate Dems will cheat to take her seat. January 4, 2027 can’t come soon enough.
A picture of FOUR TRAITOROUS criminals trying to OVERTHROW America via communism, fraud, lies and corruption. PATHETIC!
