Everyone agrees we need to do something about our elections; The SAVE act

What this episode covers

00:00 When you've got literally the vast majority of the American people, 00:09 that want and and i'm talking about just republicans about republicans democrats african americans hispanics everybody agrees that we should do something about our election 00:28 you got to make sure that only American citizens vote in our elections. And the only way that you can do that is to have people prove that they're an American citizen. This is just, I mean, it literally is absolute common sense, isn't it? But yet nothing is getting done in the Senate. Let's go to Reed in Pickens and talk to him real quick. Reed, welcome. 00:57 pay well i wasn't going to talk about that as a kid talk about what you want on them and we'll get to that in a second okay well we were talking about the uh... aryan war and the thing that bothers me about the seats fires is these guys are about muslims yeah in their theocracy and so they have this techie are or however you pronounce it right there i can lie to an infidel yet can't believe anything they say and 01:25 We have history with the Chinese in the Korean war where every so often they would say, we need a ceasefire. And so we'd do a ceasefire. The North Koreans and the Chinese would reinforce their position and attack us. And then we'd get out of a ceasefire. And then after a month or whatever, we'd do it again. We did this over and over and over. So with that history and those facts, you can't believe anything these people say. No. 01:53 Exactly right, Reed. Exactly right. And we'll see. Hopefully the president's right on this, but let's get back to the Senate. So instead of doing now, right now, again, we have got the now longest partial shutdown in American history come immediately off of the largest full government shutdown in American history. And you've got Republicans in the Senate. 02:23 that are literally, and this is what they're doing, they're trying to protect the Democrats. They're not thinking about the future because they know exactly, listen, if I can come up with this and me, if I can say, hey, you know what? The moment the Democrats get back in power, guess what they're gonna do? 02:47 they're going to do away with the filibuster. Certainly somebody that's been in the Senate for several decades knows it's like they haven't met these people and the truth is they haven't met these people. 03:02 The Democrats are today are vastly different. 03:07 So I think these so-called Republicans in the Senate are waxing nostalgic for the good old days when you can reason with a Democrat. But now, the Republicans, because see, unless something gets done, 03:26 We are literally at a stalemate. If we lose the midterms, President Trump is a two-year lame-duck president. Well, that's not going to change a whole lot. Why not? Because he's been a lame-duck president since the day he was elected. 03:46 We've had a record, just about a record low amount of bills go to the president's desk from the Senate. If not a record, it's pathetic. But John Thune says, if nothing more pressing comes up, we will think about looking at the Savior Man. If nothing more important comes up, tell me what you've done. Lindsey Graham's out there. He's got all these ads talking about, when I'm elected, 04:15 Yeah, well, not that, but if you will like me, I will... uh 04:22 I'm going to have this no sanctuary city bill. If you can't get the same act passed, if you can't get the government open, Lindsey Graham, my question for you is, and God, I wish somebody would ask him about it. 04:39 What makes you think you're going to get a no sanctuary cities bill passed? 04:45 Hell, you might as well just promise the moon. 04:49 because you know that's not going to get done either. 04:53 So now the Republicans, they've got an idea. They've got an idea. An idea that they hope is going to help them win the midterms. And that's got to do with the Supreme Court. instead of, listen to this, instead of doing th ...
