The speaker doubts the Democratic convention will win new voters, believing it caters to their base instead of recruiting new people. The speaker feels the Democratic party isn't interested in addressing important issues such as public safety, border security, and the handling of undocumented individuals. The speaker claims that 8,000,000 undocumented individuals were allowed in under Kamala Harris's leadership.

Speaker 0 discusses the House of Representatives’ vote on defunding the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). He asserts that this measure is not neutral or benevolent but a leftist enterprise, and that while leftists can contribute to it, hardworking Americans shouldn’t be forced to fund causes they find repugnant. He notes that 81 Republican members joined all Democrats to keep funding the enterprise from federal dollars. He emphasizes that while legitimate disagreements exist within the Republican Party, this should not be one of them. He argues that Republicans campaign on the precepts that the US government is too big and expensive and that money should not be taken from Americans to support left-leaning initiatives that undermine the party’s stated goals. He urges listeners to find out how their representative voted and to raise the issue with them. The speaker predicts that some Republicans will blame the outcome on the Senate filibuster, though he contends the Senate filibuster rule should not dictate House outcomes. He warns against what he calls an exaggerated view that nothing could pass the Senate without including that funding, and critiques the idea of relying on the filibuster. He advocates ending the “zombie filibuster,” arguing that filibusters should require debate instead of being conducted silently or while asleep. He calls for enforcing the existing rules of the Senate to require a speaking filibuster and then turning to issues he says Republicans were elected to address. These include reducing federal wasteful spending, ending funding for the National Endowment for Democracy, and passing the SAFE Act, which he claims would ensure that “80% of all Americans” agree with taking steps to stop noncitizens from voting in US elections. In closing, he urges Republicans who were elected under the Republican banner to stay true to their party and avoid switching to another, humorously concluding with “Don’t get on a donkey.” The overall message urges a principled commitment to Republican aims, opposition to funding perceived as left-leaning, and procedural changes to the filibuster to enable legislative action on his preferred agenda.

The speaker expresses frustration over Congress not allowing a recorded vote on a bill, accusing them of a cover-up to protect members politically. He emphasizes the importance of representatives doing their jobs and voting in person. Despite opposition, he insists on a recorded vote to hold members accountable. The speaker criticizes the lack of action by Congress and asserts the need for transparency in decision-making. He confronts Pelosi and McCarthy for their role in preventing a recorded vote. Ultimately, he believes forcing everyone to return for a vote is necessary to uphold democracy.

Only citizens should vote in federal elections according to most speakers. Some believe proof of citizenship should be required for voter registration, while others find it redundant and discriminatory. Voter ID laws are supported by some for ensuring election integrity without disenfranchising legal voters, citing increased turnout in states with such laws.

Speaker 0: Our only opportunity, our only chance to save our democracy is to fight fire with fire right now. Speaker 0: So, yeah, do I bemoan the fact that, you know, we're now blowing up norms? Yes. Speaker 0: So you have to be willing to do whatever is necessary in order to save the country. Speaker 1: When I hear that, I wonder if Is there enough people that believe that same thing? And until you get more to believe that, that may be why the Democrats aren't rowing in the same direction yet. Speaker 0: You can't get people to believe it if you don't act like it.

The conversation hinges on distrust of powerful benefactors and the way money influences politics, alongside reflections on recent political events. - Speaker 0 asserts that connections to the Rockefellers are “super sus,” arguing they have provided direct funding to an individual named Scott, which raises questions about influence and motives. They contend the Rockefellers are “nefarious” in American history and criticize the notion of “selling out” to such interests, suggesting that backing from these families would align with the interests they claim to oppose. - Speaker 2 summarizes a broader concern: the idea that the path to defeating the system is to imitate or intensify the same tactics used to entrench the system. They quote Charlie Kirk, noting that those in power “have no desire to reform the system,” only to “control the system and control you through it.” This is presented as evidence that the supposed challengers are actually reinforcing the very structure they claim to fight. - The discussion shifts to strategy and perception, with Speaker 1 urging a course of voting effort as a form of action, and Speaker 0 agreeing that the approach being discussed is aligned with the organization’s stance. There is a sense of skepticism about those who advocate for “voting harder” as a solution while appearing to operate within the existing power structures. - There is a separate thread about state politics: Speaker 0 mentions Wisconsin, noting a fascination that Democrats would elect a certain Supreme Court justice while the state would pass voter ID by a wide margin, which Speaker 0 sees as inconsistent with “a Democrat issue.” Speaker 1 acknowledges the point, and Speaker 0 indicates they would review the situation further by watching past coverage. - Another thread involves a personal and investigatory concern: Speaker 3 describes involvement in a case (referenced as “mother out to the case” and speaking with someone who was “clearly killed by somebody”). They recount contacting a California congressman, Ro Con (likely a misspelling of Ro Khanna), to raise the concern, but state that nothing happened. Speaker 2 dismisses the suggestion that political action followed, and there is a back-and-forth about whether the discussion is a debate or a plea for sympathy, with Speaker 2 accusing Speaker 3 of trying to build sympathy. Overall, the dialogue centers on alleged manipulation by powerful funders, the tension between reform and control within the political system, inconsistent political outcomes in Wisconsin, and frustration with inaction on a troubling case that involved a potential kill and calls to congressional attention that did not lead to results.

Non-citizens are not allowed to vote under federal law, but the Biden-Harris administration and some states are undermining this. The SAVE Act, requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration, was blocked by Democrats in the Senate. The wide-open border, with an estimated 16 million illegal aliens in the country, raises concerns about non-citizen voting. Some house races are decided by very few votes, so illegal participation could be decisive. California's ballot harvesting and Wisconsin's unmanned ballot boxes in public parks are also seen as opening the door to fraud. The speaker believes Republicans will win the House, Senate, and White House.

This proposal is a serious matter. People who register and vote illegally disenfranchise actual US citizens. The speaker objects to the suggestion that their motive is to disingenuously sow fear and uncertainty about election legitimacy, calling the accusation inaccurate and lacking proof. The speaker believes there is ample reason to bring the proposal forward and expresses deep disappointment that it cannot pass. It is not too much to ask to put teeth into existing laws stating that only US citizens can vote in US elections. The House passed it, and the Senate could pass it now. It is inexcusable not to.

Do you see the idiocy I'm talking about? Why would 22 Democratic senators echo the same thing, thinking it would resonate with Americans? It just shows how unchanging our democracy's fabric is in the eyes of some officials and their constituents, which is why Trump is in office. Do I have to go to Capitol Hill and give lessons? You don't get it? Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer—you all get together, put something in a prompter, and say the same thing into a microphone in separate rooms. You think that's going to resonate? Then you wonder why you're no longer in power and why Trump is in the White House.

The speaker expresses exhaustion after a long day of voting and raises concerns about Democrats supporting an open border. They question the chairman about a recent policy in New York City that allows noncitizens to vote in municipal elections. The chairman denies this, stating that noncitizens have not been eligible to vote since the 19th century. The speaker disagrees, citing the recent vote by the New York City Council. They argue that Democrats want to turn illegal immigrants into voters and claim that the open border is part of this plan. The speaker emphasizes the importance of American citizens deciding elections and expresses concern about losing the country's security and sovereignty.

Speaker 0: I haven't heard anybody in my party saying that illegal immigrants should get access to the health insurance marketplace. Speaker 1: I'm so glad you said that. Actually, I have some tape of of your Democratic party members saying this on the debate stage. So they've all said it. Let's play the clip. Speaker 0: A lot of you have been talking tonight about these government health care plans that you proposed in one form or another. This is a show of hands question, and and hold them up for a moment so people can see. Raise your hand if cover if your government plan would provide coverage for undocumented immigrants. Speaker 1: Senator, that that's that's literally every member of your party from moderate to more progressive that have said that in the past.

It's common sense that we have many migrants here illegally who have committed crimes. It's hard to understand why anyone would defend allowing them to stay in the country. If you're here illegally and committing crimes, it's not controversial to say they should go. This issue was significant in the election. In the Senate, there are 47 members, and if we can't secure at least 7 votes, that's part of the reason for our loss. It's crucial to recognize the importance of addressing this issue effectively.

Speaker 1 describes four months of arduous negotiations to produce a bipartisan bill, noting there were many times negotiations derailed and that he stayed on the phone at midnight to keep them moving. He argues the bill is crucial and a turning point for America, outlining the stakes across several flashpoints. First, he asserts that if the U.S. does not aid Ukraine, Putin will walk over Ukraine, the war could be lost, and the U.S. could find itself fighting in Eastern Europe as a NATO ally in a few years, a scenario Americans would not like. Second, he says if the U.S. does not help Israel defend itself against Hamas, the perpetual war will continue. Third, he claims humanitarian aid to starving Palestinians in Gaza is essential to prevent hundreds of thousands from starving. Fourth, he mentions the border crisis, referencing statements from Speaker Johnson that it is chaos, and asserts legislative action is needed. Speaker 1 credits Mitch McConnell for his contributions, but contrasts him with others, including Speaker Johnson, who he says are "scared to death of Donald Trump." He contends Trump has called for chaos and suggested that if he becomes president, Ukraine could be gone, the border could worsen, and war in the Middle East could escalate. He argues Trump’s stance is political rather than policy-driven and asserts that the majority of Republican senators recognize the bill as the right thing to do. He emphasizes the bill as a compromise—describing it as something he does not like in full, nor does McConnell, but necessary to accomplish important outcomes in the Senate. He recalls bipartisan legislation from two years prior as proof such collaboration is possible. The core question he poses is whether senators will drown out the political noise from Trump and his allies and do the right thing for America. Speaker 1 frames the bill as a turning point in American policy and history, asking whether history will look back and see that they rose to the occasion. He asserts that the majority of Republican senators understand the bill’s necessity, despite political headwinds, and he casts passage as essential to addressing Ukraine, Israel, Gaza humanitarian needs, and border stability. Speaker 1 ends by reiterating that history is watching their decisions at this moment.

The speaker claims the Biden-Harris administration and some states are undermining election integrity, not them. Federal law prohibits non-citizens from voting, but states have issues. The speaker says the House passed the SAVE Act, requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration, but Chuck Schumer and the Democrats blocked it in the Senate. The speaker alleges the open border policy is a Democratic strategy to enable non-citizen voting. They estimate 16 million illegal aliens are in the country since the border was opened, raising concerns about their potential illegal participation in elections, where some races are decided by very few votes. The speaker also cites California's ballot harvesting and unmanned ballot boxes in Wisconsin as potential sources of fraud.

There are concerns about noncitizens potentially voting in elections due to lack of citizenship verification. Democrats oppose a bill requiring proof of citizenship to vote. Loopholes exist, allowing noncitizens to vote without consequences. Democrats are accused of exploiting this for political gain. The issue is seen as election interference and a threat to American voters. The conversation highlights the impact of illegal voting on citizens' rights.

I, of course, want to remove every non eligible voter from our voter rolls. That is not in dispute. I, of course, want to remove every non eligible voter from the voter rolls, especially those who don't support my core values. That is not in dispute.

Speaker 0 warns that what you’re doing is extremely dangerous, and questions why it is dangerous. Speaker 1 challenges this by asking why it would be dangerous, and clarifies that they are not saying people are voting in certain places, but that people are currently registered to vote there. Speaker 2 interjects, referencing a recent sweep around Fulton County. Speaker 1 reiterates: they see that people are currently registered to vote in places like empty lots and homeless shelters that closed ten years ago, and asks what the other speaker would do if they became secretary of state to address that. Speaker 0 responds that the other party will have to reply to conspiracy theories. Speaker 1 counters that it is not a conspiracy, describing it as a current situation: people are currently registered to vote there, and it’s possible to purchase voter rolls for $45 to verify this. They insist they are not saying people are voting there, but that people are currently registered to vote there, and they reference Jason as the person who can verify that. They further state they will gladly take the other speaker to see if it’s true, arguing that if someone is running for secretary of state, they are in charge of maintaining the voter rolls. Speaker 0 continues to label the claim as dangerous and as conspiracy theory. Speaker 1 again emphasizes that they are not alleging people are voting there, but that people are currently registered to vote there. They reiterate that it took $45 to purchase the voter rolls, and that the same could be done for Fulton County. They mention specific locations where people are allegedly registered to vote: empty lots and a MARTA bus station, and ask whether the other speaker will address that instead of labeling it conspiracy theories. They reference the existence of a death address, 205 Elm Street Northwest, described as an empty lot that one could visit to verify the claim. They ask whether the other speaker, as an elected official who might become secretary of state, cares about ensuring clean voter rolls in a county considered one of the most important in the United States. Speaker 0 maintains that the other party’s approach is dangerous. Speaker 1 repeats the core assertion: it’s not a conspiracy, it’s a current condition where people are registered to vote in empty lots, a MARTA bus station, and other locations, and stresses that the issue is about maintaining clean voter rolls. The exchange cycles through insistence that “people are currently registered to vote there,” the availability of voter-roll data for verification, and the imperative for someone who could be secretary of state to address the integrity of the rolls rather than dismissing the claim as conspiracy theory.

My colleagues claim that common sense voting laws, like requiring a government ID, are racist. I have multiple government IDs, showing personal responsibility. I have a global entry card, military ID, Texas driver's license, license to carry, congressional card, and passport. Obtaining these IDs is not impossible, it's personal responsibility. I fought for this country as a helicopter pilot to protect free and fair elections. Having a government ID is not racist, it's American. Translation: My colleagues argue that basic voting laws, such as needing a government ID, are discriminatory. I have various government IDs, demonstrating personal responsibility. I possess a global entry card, military ID, Texas driver's license, license to carry, congressional card, and passport. Acquiring these IDs is not impossible, it's about personal responsibility. I served as a helicopter pilot to defend free and fair elections. Having a government ID is not discriminatory, it's American.

Speaker 0: President Trump is urging Congress to pass the Save America Act, describing it as one of the most critical pieces of legislation in our nation's history. He asserts the Save America Act is overwhelmingly popular with all Americans because each provision is rooted in common sense, and outlines five simple requirements as requested by the president of the United States. 1) Voters have to show ID to cast a ballot in an American election. He states this is very simple and notes that 90% of Americans, including more than 80% of Democrat voters, agree with this. 2) The Save America Act will require all voters to show proof of citizenship in order to register to vote. He asserts this is popular and rooted in common sense, insisting that only American citizens have the right to vote in American elections. He claims that after Joe Biden and the Democrats allowed tens of millions of illegal aliens into the country, it is more important than ever to ensure that only American citizens are registering to vote on our nation's voter rolls, and he calls on Congress to pass this. 3) The Save America Act abolishes the incongruously unsecure practice of universal mail-in ballots, which he says "throw the door wide open for fraud." He notes that the act maintains exceptions for Americans to use mail-in ballots for illness, disability, military, or travel reasons. He references the bipartisan 2005 report of the Commission on Federal Election Reform, chaired by former president Jimmy Carter and former secretary of state James Baker, which concluded that absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud and that Congress should address this. 4) The Save America Act permanently bans men from competing in women's sports. He notes that President Trump signed a landmark executive order upholding the promise of Title IX and ending this practice, and argues that now it’s time for Congress to codify this into law. 5) The Save America Act bans transgender mutilation surgery for children. He states that the president signed a common-sense executive order to do this and kept his promise to the American people, but now Congress needs to codify it. He asserts it is well past time for Democrats in Congress to stop perpetuating the radical and false claim that you can somehow change a child's sex, stating that you cannot. He concludes by saying passing the Save America Act is the most important thing Republicans—and frankly Democrats—can do to strengthen election integrity and protect democracy. He asserts it is what the American people elected Republicans to do and that they must deliver on it as soon as possible. The president calls on Congress to get the job done and send this historic piece of legislation to his desk immediately for signature.

The Senator believes the Save Act, requiring proof of citizenship for federal election voting, must come up for a vote in the House and Senate, ideally attached to the next spending bill in September. He claims 3 out of 4 Americans agree only US citizens should vote in federal elections and should prove citizenship when registering, similar to the I-9 form for new jobs. The Senator hopes Mike Johnson will attach the Save Act to a continuing resolution to highlight the contrast between parties. He questions whether Chuck Schumer would risk a government shutdown to allow non-citizens, including 10 million illegal immigrants, to potentially influence the election outcome.

The speakers claim that noncitizens could sway elections if even a small percentage voted, alleging it's easy for them to register. They say there are no federal requirements for states to verify citizenship before voter registration. A proposed Republican bill to mandate proof of citizenship is expected to fail in the Senate. They cite Title 18 US Code 611, stating noncitizens can vote in federal elections if they reasonably believed they were citizens. They suggest that migrants granted asylum could claim they thought they could vote, avoiding penalties. They claim states like New York allow voter registration without ID or a Social Security number, only requiring a utility bill or similar document. One speaker alleges Democrats are working to conceal the number of illegal votes cast. They argue that providing noncitizens with benefits and pressuring them to register to vote is a deliberate strategy to gain illegal votes. They suggest a scenario where Chinese nationals could register and vote for Biden to avoid Trump's tariffs, calling it election interference. They conclude that illegal votes disenfranchise citizens and that Democrats prefer noncitizens over US citizens.

The speaker questions whether Democrats support an open border and asks if noncitizens will be eligible to vote in New York. The other speaker denies this, stating that noncitizens have not been eligible to vote in New York since the 19th century. The first speaker disagrees, mentioning that the New York City Council recently passed a law allowing noncitizens to vote in municipal elections starting in 2023. They argue that this is part of a plan to turn illegal immigrants into voters. The second speaker clarifies that this is only being considered in certain areas, not the entire country. The first speaker expresses concern about the impact on American elections and the constitution.

Some believe that many millennials, dreamers, and undocumented people, who contribute to the country, are fearful of voting because they worry immigration will find them and deport their families. One speaker claims that this is untrue because voting is confidential and voting rolls are not transferred for investigation. Another speaker expresses disbelief, stating that the President is questioning whether an illegal person is voting, and reminding people that only citizens can vote. The speaker believes the President is saying not to worry about being caught for illegal voting. The speaker emphasizes that undocumented people cannot vote because they are not citizens.

parliamentarian ruled that sections of it were outside of the process that they're using to get this through. Do you think that senators should respect the decisions of the parliamentarian? And what have you personally done in the last forty eight hours to try and get Republican senators who are against the bill to a yes? 'If it's not approved, your taxes will go up by 68%. Think of that. 68, a record, the highest in the history.' 'The Democrats won't approve it only because, politically, it's so good for the Republicans.' 'They're not approving border security.' 'We've done a great job at the border, but we have to add some wall.' 'We have no money for that.' 'But if the Democrats it'll be interesting to see if we get any Democrat votes. We should.' 'If I were a Democrat, I would vote for this bill all day long because it's tax cuts and so many other things that are common sense.'

It's common sense that we have many migrants here illegally who have committed crimes. It's hard to understand why anyone would defend allowing them to stay in the country. If someone is here illegally and engages in criminal activity, they should be removed. This issue was significant in the recent election. In the Senate, with 47 members, if we can't secure at least 7 votes on this matter, it reflects why we lost. This is one of the reasons for our defeat. Brett, consider that perspective; it's a crucial point being made.
