Video Summary
AI GeneratedPresident Trump has blocked a bipartisan housing bill, demanding the passage of the SAVE Act to ensure election integrity through proof of citizenship. The speaker argues that securing the ballot box is the essential foundation for all governance and criticizes GOP leadership for prioritizing establishment interests over the will of the voters.
President Trump was supposed to sign a big bipartisan housing bill,
the kind of thing the media would have said,
this is a win for the American people.
Whenever the press is for a bill, run for your life, okay?
Stage was set, the cameras was, they were ready.
They had a little desk with a presidential seal in the pins already
and everybody was ready to go in.
Then just before the ceremony, he posted on Truth Social,
yeah, I'm not gonna sign that, signing's canceled.
He said, until Congress passes the SAVE Act, save America.
He said it's a national emergency and he is absolutely right on that.
And some people lost their mind.
Of course, the press was leading it.
How dare he hold up this help for housing costs, uh-huh, uh-huh.
Here's what Trump knew, that the base already knew,
and what Trump heard loud and clear from actual conservatives.
That housing bill is not clean.
It's not a free market victory.
That's what they were selling on cable news, but they sold us a lot.
They sold us COVID vaccines on cable news,
so I don't think they have much credibility.
This thing was stuffed with the same kind of poison pills we saw in the FISA fight.
Hidden provisions, more bureaucracy, special interest giveaways,
all dressed up as affordability.
When anybody says, just have to start listening,
whatever they say in Washington, D.C., just remember, it's like opposite stay, okay?
It's just opposite stay.
Whatever they say, affordability, you can count on, it's not gonna be affordable, okay?
So Trump listened to the people who actually care about limited government and said,
yeah, not without securing the ballot box, not gonna happen.
Because without honest elections, every other bill is just rearranging the decks,
rearranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic, that's it.
So then he had to go to the meeting on Capitol Hill,
and he sat down with Republican senators.
It was supposed to be a strategy lunch.
It turned into almost a lunch with a food fight.
I expected John Belushi to come with the mashed potatoes in his face and go,
it was ugly, it was ugly.
He called out the four Republicans who joined the Democrats,
the day before to pass a war powers resolution,
aimed at trying to tie his hands in the Iran conflict.
And he was like, guys, we're in the middle of negotiations.
Why would you do this?
That's all he wanna know, why?
Why would members of his own party vote to undermine the commander in chief
in the middle of negotiations?
And that's when Louisiana Senator, for now, Bill Cassidy stood up,
and he got into the president's face, or he tried to.
And he said, you haven't been transparent enough with the American people
about how long this conflict is dragged on,
how the original objectives aren't being met.
And everybody got heated, and Trump said, sit down.
This is interesting, because this is exactly the way
our Constitution is supposed to work, okay?
You're supposed to have this fight.
So if you think it was testy and ugly and everything else,
read some American history.
This is not testy, okay?
This is not.
This is the way it's supposed to work.
That's one branch going to the other branch,
arguing and saying, I got a different opinion.
Yeah, well, I don't listen to you.
That's exactly the way it's supposed to work.
And I'll show you, it actually did work in the end.
I'll show you that in a minute.
But Cassidy, let's remember who he is.
He's the senator who just lost his primary to a Trump-endorsed candidate.
So he doesn't like Donald Trump.
He's not trying to match the volume.
I won't be bullied.
I'm standing up for the American people.
No, you're not.
You just lost your seat.
You hate Donald Trump.
Trump helped the other guy win against you.
So you're a baby throwing a tantrum.
Gee, I wonder if John Cornyn had anything to say at this meeting.
You know, which side was he on?
I'll get to that in a minute.
Anyway, the room got really quiet in that kind of awkward way
the rooms get when they're realizing,
oh boy, this is not going to end well.
Tommy Tuberville comes out later and he says,
it's a halftime talk.
That's all this is, a halftime talk.
But John Cornyn, he stands up.
He's like, you have been decisive here for about an hour.
Now you're preaching unity.
Side note, side note here.
John Cornyn also lost his race.
He's a baby as well.
He's just sabotaging Trump any way he possibly can.
He doesn't like Trump.
He's sabotaging Trump.
If I can't have it, no one will.
That kind of thing.
Okay, so blow these guys off.
But a side note here, the Senate in the end,
I told you the system is the way it's supposed to work.
The Senate decided not to restrict Trump on war power
and they had Cassidy's vote.
Wait a minute.
What?
I'm standing up for the American people.
What happened?
Because after all the blow and show,
all the fireworks died down,
the White House went to Cassidy and said,
can we show you some stuff here that you need to see?
I don't know what intel he was shown,
but he changed his mind and voted with the president.
All right, so let's go back to the fight on Capitol Hill.
Trump says, you know, I really like majority leader John Thune.
No, he doesn't.
But he's playing the game, okay?
All right, what you saw yesterday is the sound of a party
that still hasn't decided whether it answers to the people
who elected it or to the old Washington Boys Club, okay?
And running through all of it, the canceled signing,
the raised voices, the frustration,
was one single non-negotiable demand.
Pass the frickin' Save America Act.
Pass it.
Proof of citizenship to register to vote.
Gee, I don't know.
I should deliberate on that one.
No, you know, the photo ID, basic common sense safeguard, okay?
It's the most sacred act in a republic.
Choosing our leaders should actually mean something.
It should be safe and secure and let the chips fall where they may.
The Senate leadership says, well, we don't have the votes.
Really? Really?
You've been saying that for quite some time now, for months.
Boy, John Thune, you're sure doing your job, huh?
John Thune is not being straight with the American people.
I don't know what his real intentions are, but he is not being honest in this.
The promises keep coming.
The urgency never does.
The math never quite works out when the base is demanding action.
Isn't that weird?
You know what?
We need the House and the Senate and the White House.
Then we can pass these things.
You have all of them.
Oh, I didn't mention we also need a magic bunny.
What?
Once we get that magic bunny, we're going to pass everything you guys want.
I'm not waiting for the magic bunny anymore because it doesn't exist.
You've been lying to us.
I don't know if it's the fear of the media, loyalty to the institution over the voters,
something else.
I have no idea, but the people deserve an honest answer.
The GOP is losing its base.
That's the truth, guys.
Let me speak right directly to you in Washington.
I told you it was coming, and you're losing it not because the people have gone extreme,
but because too many in Washington still treat the voters like an afterthought.
Let's be honest.
I know you.
I know many of you.
I despise many of you, and many of you despise me.
But your despising people does not stop with me.
You despise your own voters.
You lie to them.
I just got to get rid of these rubes.
Just convince them.
I know.
You've said it to me.
The people sent the president to drain the swamp and secure the border and protect the
ballot, and he's doing it.
Instead, they keep getting these, well, we're going to pass a bipartisan bill, and it's
got poison inside every time.
We're going to get to election integrity, you know, eventually.
No, you're not, because we can't afford eventually.
We must have the SAVE Act.
It is the foundation.
It is the line in the sand, and without it, every other fight, taxes, spending, the border,
the courts, is still built on sand.
A nation that cannot verify who is voting is not a nation that can remain self-governing.
Okay, so what do we do?
What do we do?
I'm going to tell you what we do.
All right, so since we're so close to the Independence Day on the 4th of July, let me
just talk about what did the founders do.
When the gatekeepers said, you can't do that, we can't do that, what did they do?
They rose up.
Okay, here's step number one, and you're going to roll your eyes.
You're going to be like, just hear me out for a second.
I want you to call your senators, every single one of them, especially the leadership who
claims they will be with us, but keep finding reasons to delay.
I want you to be very kind, very, very kind.
I want you to write them as well, email, say the same thing, but very kind, but clear.
No more excuses, no more at some point, attach the SAVE Act to must-pass legislation.
If you can't pass this, and you tell me that we need a supermajority, that's not true,
and I know it.
I know what the founders did, okay?
I don't care if you use reconciliation, but the people are watching, and we will organize
against you.
We want to be for you, be just like the founders did.
What did they do with King George?
The whole time they were begging, please, we don't want to break away, we don't.
It's not good for the republic to send the GOP and that whole system down the tubes,
but we'll do it, we'll do it.
We're not going to stand for this anymore.
So please, Senator, hear reason.
Do you see what's happening with other senators?
They're losing, and it will happen to you.
You've got to take a stand.
Cassidy's loss was not random.
It was a warning shot.
Same thing with Cornyn.
The voters are done with senators who talk tough on camera and then fold when it matters.
They're done.
Make the SAVE Act a litmus test for 2026, okay?
Every Republican candidate should be asked in every debate, every time you see him on
the street, every time you see him at a town hall meeting, whatever, will you fight and
put everything you have on the SAVE Act?
Or are you going to find another reason to stall?
If he doesn't instantly, SAVE Act is must.
No support.
Same thing with socialism and sharia law.
Ask them point blank.
Will you fight these diseases with everything you have?
Because that's what socialism and sharia law is, a disease.
Will you pass a ban on sharia law?
Yes or no?
Well, I don't.
You're out.
If they hesitate at all, no vote.
Move on.
And make it very clear.
But do it kindly.
Kindly.
They will not listen to you.
If you are a bully or if you are, if this is just some organized, we're gonna come for
you, okay?
Don't.
Don't become what we despise.
But don't let them gaslight you into thinking this is too hard.
Securing the vote is not radical.
It's the bare minimum for a republic that claims to be of, by, and for the people.
Bare minimum.
And here's the thing.
When I say call them, you're saying to yourself, it's not gonna make a difference.
Let me give you a different perspective.
We hired Donald Trump to be the president of the United States.
He went to Congress and the Senate yesterday, okay?
Don't you think he's a little sick of them?
Don't you think he'd like to say, you know, they're not gonna do it anyway.
He has the bully pulpit.
He has the leverage of the presidency.
He has direct confrontation in the room.
He does all of these things.
He's fighting with everything he has.
We're not going to support him.
We're gonna send the guy in there.
You think you're sick of it.
How sick of it do you think he is?
Okay?
But he knows that's the game.
It has to be done.
The question is no longer what Trump will do.
The question needs to be, what will you do?
We elected him.
We want this.
Why would we expect him to fight it now alone?
Again, you think you're tired of calling the Senate?
Imagine how tired he is.
This is the test.
This is the moment the base either demands what it voted for
or watches the party drift back into the same old swamp.
I choose to fight.
I have to tell you, the Tea Party, it needs to happen again.
It needs to.
We have to get past our fear of being seen on the streets.
Because in 30 minutes, I'm going to tell you some news that is critical.
Absolutely life-threatening.
And we have to be seen and heard.
And I know you're tired.
We've been there, done that.
I'm telling you, we have to redouble our efforts.
Okay?
I choose to make them pass the SAVE Act or vote them out.
I choose to believe that the American people, when they're awake,
when they're engaged, when they're unwilling to live by lies,
still have the power to save this republic.
Do you believe that?
Are you awake?
Are you willing to stand out?
Stand up.
Speak out.
Flood the phones.
Primary all of the obstructionists.
And never, ever let them tell you that securing the ballot box is,
well, we're going to get to that.
No.
If we lose the vote, we lose everything.
I am, I think, you might actually be stronger than I am.
I think I'm a lot like you.
I don't want to do any of this stuff.
I got into this business, you know, as a radio DJ, okay?
I'm a self-educated guy.
When I started talk radio, I got into it.
I was doing comedy.
I was making fun of talk radio as a conservative.
I didn't want to be that guy.
And then 9-11 happened.
And then Barack Obama happened.
And then, you know, the Great Reset happened.
And all these things happened.
And now Socialist is happening.
I got to do it.
You got to do it.
We don't want to do it.
But the times call for it now.
