So Collins is a Yes? A little surprised

It was about a week or so ago when she announced she'd support the bill. I know it's easy to miss though, with how rapidly the news cycle moves these days.

I was surprised too, albeit pleasantly.

Who’s voting for Mitch? Cause at this point he doesn’t know he’sa senator. Can’t we impeach him?


I understand that Joe Biden has offered to stand in for the demented, infirm McConnell

She has signed on a a cosponsor for the bill but is not willing to do what it takes to bring the bill to the floor. It is not surprising at all. She is a spineless swamp creature.

Until it really matters, and Murkowski bullies her into being a No.

Where is Fetterman? Even with 4 republicans against it, fetterman would get us to 50 and allow Vance to put it over the top.


What is it going to take for you people to realize that Fetterman backs voter ID but not the SAVE America act? He is in favor of showing an ID to vote but thinks that a state issued driver’s license is enough. That includes driver’s licenses from states like California that issue licenses to illegal aliens. He opposes proving citizenship and opposes forcing states to clean their voter rolls.

Wrong. They are obstructionists. This is all by design

Until we show them they will be voted out, this charade won’t matter. But at least there are dog shows!

I think we need to prepare to accept the fact that the SAVE Act is not going to be the Law of the land here in the USA.

I also think we need to prepare to accept that we won't be able to secure our elections from fraud anytime this year.

Why? Because Conservative MAGA does not yet hold enough political power to make that happen. Too many of our fellow Americans are unwilling to turn their backs on American Leftism.

No one is asking to ‘break muh rules’

This dipshit: John Curtis (R-UT, co-sponsor): Opposes any move seen as breaking filibuster rules.

What’s being asked is a standing filibuster, so really, going back to the rules as intended. But of course these figs know that

The 3 of 4 republicans who are holding up the process have not agreed to cosponsor the bill. Tillis has. It is time to put an all out full court press on him.

The courts will see to that even if the SAVE America Act passes.

Trump needs to actively start putting an unbearable amount of pressure on these 4. In public and behind closed doors. Their name needs to stay in his mouth.


Which means the people need to stay on POTUS Trump to use that bully pulpit a POTUS has.

Oh good grief. WTF. Killing your own bill is the most GOPE thing ever.

Rhat was always the right way to get it done, should have started the effort in Jan 2021.

But I think the GOPE just wants to look like they want this, with out a want to actually get it done. See previous post.
