What this episode covers
The SAVE America Act is back at the center of the fight, and this episode connects the legislation to a story out of South Carolina no one saw coming. Senator Lindsey Graham's final phone call to President Trump was a promise that the SAVE America Act would pass. Days later, Governor Henry McMaster named Graham's younger sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to fill the remainder of his term, making her the first woman ever to represent South Carolina in the United States Senate. Host Jenny Beth Martin, co-founder of the Tea Party movement and Chairman of Tea Party Patriots Action, ties the human story to the political one: only American citizens should decide American elections, and the House is now moving to carry the SAVE America Act across the finish line inside the Reconciliation 3.0 budget package, around the Senate's 60-vote threshold. Jim Pfaff, president of The Conservative Caucus and a former Capitol Hill chief of staff, and Robert McNeily, Director of Broadcasting and Grassroots Engagement at Tea Party Patriots Action, break down the news of the day: cooling June inflation, five hundred billion dollars a year in federal fraud, the Todd Blanche confirmation hearing, and the crisis of unqualified foreign truck drivers on American highways. Then Angel Mom Anne Fundner shares the warning every parent needs to hear about the counterfeit fentanyl pill that took the life of her 15-year-old son, Weston.
