Members of Congress use ID and a secure system to cast votes because high-stakes decisions require identity verification and an auditable record. That’s standard practice when power is on the line. Public elections are upstream of all that power. They decide who gets to sit in those seats and... show more

Even members of Congress need ID to vote. Jeffery Mead discusses identity verification in voting.

JUST NOW: President Trump says if Democrats eliminate the filibuster, they could reshape the balance of power.🙅‍♂️ Two new states, four new senators, eight House seats, and at least twenty Electoral College votes. That is not a small tweak. That is the math of power. Voter ID and proof of citizenship matter for the same reason. The rules decide who votes and how elections are trusted.

Dems have to resort to flat out lies because they are the wrong side of an 85%+ issue on voter ID and citizenship verification… secure elections benefit all Americans. Pass the SAVE America Act

Holder: You know, they have elections in Russia, and Putin gets 95, 93% of the vote. We’ll continue to have elections here in the US. The question is whether or not the elections that we have here will be meaningful ones—whether the people will actually get the opportunity to express their views on the policy direction of the nation. And so again, it’s all about power—whether it’s gerrymandering, weakening the Voting Rights Act to take power away from people who the people in power now think are not supportive of them. It’s all about the acquisition and the use of power. And that’s one thing that we on the progressive side, on the Democratic side, have got to get used to. It’s not a bad thing for us to say that we want to acquire and use power. Doesn’t mean we’re going to use it in the same way that Republicans and conservatives have—in the negative way that they have done it. But Roosevelt wasn’t afraid of acquiring and using power. Johnson wasn’t afraid of acquiring and using power. That’s what we have to be about. And so, fighting back the way in which Governor Newsom has, and folks in California, by putting together Prop 50, is exactly what we have to do. We’ve got to fight for this.

THIS!! People need to realise that their vote is the biggest power, and the shitablishment is hell-scared of it. They didn’t hold elections in the last 18 months because of the power you hold. Use your power and change your future.

NBC: Is Trump suggesting the federal government count votes in elections? LEAVITT: What he's suggesting is that Republicans and Democrats in Congress should pass the Save America Act. It will require voter ID to vote and proof of citizenship to register to vote.

Schiff: The founders gave us the power to declare war or to refuse to do so. If we don’t use that power to bring an end to this war, if we don’t use that power to insist that Congress play its role in our system of checks and balances, that power is gone for good—and that is dangerous for this country, because it means presidents will make war on a whim, as it appears this president has done.

🚨 TEXAS PRIMARY “PREVIEW”? DISAPPEARING VOTES RAISE NEW ALARMS 🚨 As new concerns emerge out of Texas, Mike Lindell is warning that what’s being seen now could be a preview of what’s coming in the midterms. Newly reported irregularities during early voting - including votes appearing, disappearing, and even moving backwards - are something Lindell says should be impossible in a secure election system. The key lies in cast vote records, which track the exact order votes are counted. In a normal system, those numbers should only move forward - never in reverse. When they don’t, it raises serious questions and flags potential machine manipulation. Lindell says this isn’t just about one state - it’s about the broader system. From primaries to general elections, he warns that voting machines (not voters) could be deciding outcomes if safeguards aren’t put in place. That’s why he’s continuing to push for a nationwide shift to paper ballots and transparent, verifiable counting - especially before the next election cycle. With the stakes higher than ever, Lindell is urging Americans to stay engaged, demand answers, and support efforts to secure elections - which is one of the reasons why he is running for governor in Minnesota. 👉 Learn more here: The question now: will anything change before it’s too late? 👇

If we want fair and secure elections, Election Day should mean Election Day. That's what the Supreme Court case of Watson v. RNC is all about. The RNC is fighting to ensure only eligible votes are being counted and to stop the confusion of elections that drag on for weeks.

For those claiming you have to show ID to vote in VA, here’s me proving that you don’t. I’ve voted in every election without ID since they passed this law in 2020. They will ask for your ID, but you don’t have to show it. In deep blue cities, they won’t even ask for your ID. This is something Youngkin could’ve fixed via executive action. He could’ve declared an invasion, proved illegals have voted, then used that state of emergency to require verification and paper ballots in elections. He didn’t because his handlers are the same people who control Democrats as well, and they don’t want election integrity or the borders closed. Inaction from “Republicans” when we give them power is why Virginia got slaughtered last night.

CRISIS IN AMERICA! Americans are losing confidence in our elections due to weak voter ID, no citizenship verification, and dirty voter rolls. The Left wants to keep it that way to steal elections, but Judicial Watch is leading the fight for clean elections. Tom Fitton

MSDNC is giving away the truth that they don't want ANYONE to realize: The reason why elections take so long in California is apparently because of the number of candidates and size of the state. Let that sink in. Those two things are justification enough for them to BLATANTLY CHEAT. Why are we letting a state run amok with elections when the proof is RIGHT IN FRONT OF US?

#WATCH | Delhi | On DMK's allegations, Congress MP Manickam Tagore says, "... They lost the election, and as a result, we also lost... They won and held power at times, so, it is not the case that they are suffering only because of us... It is unfortunate that DMK spokespersons are using such terms... They should remember that in 2011, even after the defeat, we supported them. But they left us and contested the local body elections in 2011. In 2013, they exited the UPA government... Who then backstabbed us?... In 2016, we all realised that without Congress, they couldn’t win. That’s why an alliance was formed, resulting in about 95 seats or so... Congress party has sacrificed much for the sake of our friendship..." "We too lost our seats.... The irresponsible spokespersons of DMK need to be mindful of their language and refrain from speaking in such a manner... In Tamil Nadu, there are two main secular spaces. We respect DMK’s secular credentials..." (07.05)

It has been almost A WEEK since California’s primary “ended." The votes are still rolling in and guess what? They're heavily favoring the Democrats! Who could have seen that coming? And California officials actually had the gall to ask us to be patient because this is "normal" for their elections. No, California, NOTHING about how you handle your elections is NORMAL. You don’t need to be a conspiracy theorist to smell the rot here. At the least, this is the appearance of corruption. And when it comes to our elections, appearance is EVERYTHING. Voting is built on trust: Trust that the dead aren’t suddenly voting. Trust that a van with thousands of ballots doesn’t show up overnight and swing the election one way. Trust that non-citizens aren’t casting votes that are being counted. Trump was right to demand transparency. But BOTH sides should be just as furious.

Trump knows the midterms are about to be a disaster for Republicans and he is already doing everything in his power to steal the elections. We can’t let that happen. That’s why I’m taking action in Congress to stop this illegal power grab.

"it is for the safety of the children... of course it is" Keir Starmer is expected to restrict Britain's roughly 13 million under-16s from accessing 'high-risk' platforms. TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, YouTube, and of course X, will all be blocked without some sort of identity verification. Clown Starmer calls it an 'Australia + model', whatever that means. Yet he wants to lower the age of voting in elections to 16 years old... make that make sense. How are 16 year olds supposed to make informed decisions ,when they are unable to access information and news that gives them a rounded view on the world they live in? The reality is, this is one of the many stepping stones to a digital ID system, we will all have to prove that we are over 16 years old, we will all have to prove who we are so that we can take advantage of the services offered to us in this connected society, buy, sell, be tracked, be monitored. They want to know the very essence of who you are. Dissent will not be allowed. Time is running out people, we must not comply, we must fight back, 2030 is a deadline. Remember The World Is Ours, not theirs.
