Why do you say “something that’s already illegal,” as though that is some kind of rebuttal? Right now, all fifty states are prohibited from *verifying* citizenship to vote on federal elections. So any illegal alien who wants to vote can vote merely be checking a box — that’s it — there is no mechanism whatsoever to prevent illegal aliens voting. The Save Act *verifies* citizenship.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a joke.

Why is he taking orders from an Ex President indicted felon, to be indicted Seditionist?

This is like flogging a dead horse. It's already illegal for non citizens to vote. Between 2003 and 2022, 23 people were caught and subsequently deported.

So Louisiana is getting hit by a hurricane and the @gop wants to shut down the government… good luck with that FEMA help.

Cant wait to see voter backlash when GOP shuts the govt down and govt employees arent getting their paychecks - all because no one in GOP has any stones to stand up to someone who isnt in the government

Trump is running a shadow government, right now in America. He is trying to shutdown the funding bill.

Mike "Im Moses" Johnson probably got the word from his one and only true leader, Dementia Don. 🙄

It’s already against the law for noncitizens to vote in federal elections. There are no cases where illigal votes have been counted. The Save Act is designed to prevent the poor, the young and the old from registering to vote!

Returning to the Capitol, Speaker Mike Johnson told us “this is a righteous fight” when asked about his demand to include provision barring undocumented immigrants from voting as part of must-pass funding bill to keep government open. When asked about the fact that it’s already illegal for them to vote, Johnson said: “It's also illegal for underage persons to buy alcohol, but we still require an ID because we have to enforce the laws that are on the books.” He added: “If just a small percentage of them register to vote … they can throw the election.”

Bill Gates says he had a 3-Hour Dinner with Trump to Discuss Expediting his HIV Vaccine — And Trump seems Pretty Excited About it, he says • In a private meeting with himself, Trump, Trumps Chief of Staff Susan Wiles, and Larry Cohen — he said they discussed “Global Health” • He spoke to Trump about HIV and how the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is literally working on a cure for HIV • He asked Trump since he accelerated the Covid-vaccines with Warpspeed, if he would accelerate his HIV vaccines “we got pretty excited about that…> he was fascinated to hear what he could do to maximize the chance that during the next four years that incredible milestone will be achieved.” 🔴 MY THOUGHTS: I tell you right now… if Bill Gates walks away from all this, I will be pissed. If Trump expedites a vaccine made by Bill Gates, I will be pissed. Nothing this guy makes is for the benefit of mankind.

ARE UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS VOTING? Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are planning to push for a bill to ban non-citizens from voting. Here are the FACTS: - According to the Brennan Center for Justice, 30 of the 23.5 million votes they examined, in some of the areas with the most non-citizens voted illegally. That’s (0.0001%). And there are already laws against this obviously. - Non-citizens are already banned from voting in ALL Federal elections, as well as the State elections of ALL 50 STATES. - There are a very few municipalities where undocumented immigrants can vote in local elections (Mayor, school board, etc). They are Washington DC, San Francisco, Oakland and 10 cities in Maryland. That’s it. The federal government, however, has no say over who can vote in local municipal elections. So the conclusion is that Johnson and Trump are merely pushing for laws that are already in place to rile up their base.

Speaker Johnson told me that Trump supports his bid to stay as speaker and he doesn’t anticipate problems during the Jan. 3 floor vote — even if he has a very tight majority as seems likely. “We will have it all lined up on Jan. 3.” Johnson also said he and Trump haven’t discussed how to deal with govt funding set to expire in mid-December. Said Trump’s preference will carry a lot of weight. Johnson heads to Mar-a-Lago this weekend

Just asked Speaker Johnson about Trump’s call to “take over” voting in some states. Defended Trump and said he was “expressing his frustration” at some blue states. He pointed to voter ID bill they’re trying to pass. I asked him again about a “take over,” and he said: “no, no”

Trump and Johnson (who doesn't even know if he has the votes for FISA because of Trump) are meeting today to discuss how to stop migrants coming to the United States from voting. CNN points out there is already a federal law in place banning non-citizens from voting in elections.

NEW: Speaker Johnson is now considering a "plan B" for his spending bill after receiving fierce backlash from Elon Musk on X, according to Politico. Good. According to the outlet, Johnson is considering producing a "clean CR" and dealing with the other issues later on when Trump is in office. "That would mean dropping disaster aid, $30 billion for farmers, and a one-year extension of the farm bill, among other items, at least for now," Politico reported. Musk previously said he would "fight tooth and nail" to make sure the government is using taxpayer money the right way. He wasn't kidding.
