“Who Decides?” The SAVE Act, Voting Rights & The Imperial Presidency?"- Talk What You Know: Hard Talk Edition Ep 32 with Donald R. Jones

Talk What You Know — Hard Talk EditionEpisode 32: “Who Decides?”The SAVE Act, Voting Rights & The Imperial PresidencyHosted by Rev. Dr. Donald R. JonesTonight, we are asking two of the most important constitutional questions in America:👉 Who decides who gets to vote?👉 And how much power should one President possess?In the first half of this episode, Rev. Dr. Donald R. Jones examines the SAVE Act and the national debate over election integrity, citizenship verification, and voter access.Supporters argue the SAVE Act would strengthen election security by requiring documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections.Critics argue the bill could create new barriers for eligible citizens who may not have easy access to passports, birth certificates, naturalization records, or other required documents.The question is not whether only citizens should vote.Both sides agree on that.The real question is:👉 How do we protect elections without blocking eligible citizens from participating?Then, in the second half of the show, we turn to a deeper constitutional concern:👉 Are we witnessing the rise of an Imperial Presidency?From the Founders’ fear of monarchy to modern Supreme Court decisions on presidential immunity, removal power, independent agencies, and executive control, this episode examines whether the balance of power between the branches of government is shifting.We discuss:America’s long fight to expand voting rightsWhat the SAVE Act would changeElection integrity vs voter-access concernsThe Founders’ fear of unchecked executive powerHumphrey’s Executor and the history of independent agenciesPresidential immunity and official actsThe Roberts Court and the future of Article II powerTrump v. Slaughter, Trump v. Cook, and the debate over agency independenceWhether stronger presidential control means accountability — or concentration of powerThis episode is not about political slogans.It is about constitutional structure.It is about voting access.It is about checks and balances.It is about whether the Republic can still keep power divided.The Hard Talk question:👉 Can America protect election integrity and preserve executive accountability without weakening the rights and safeguards that protect the people?Because the Framers understood something timeless:Power is necessary.But power without accountability is dangerous.📺 Talk What You Know — Hard Talk Edition📡 New Orleans Talk Network🗓 Mondays at 11 AMStay informed.
