to do to get this bill passed. Well, first of all, I just want to thank the president for his leadership on this. It's such an important piece of legislation to guarantee, as you've already said, that only American citizens vote in American elections and that you have voter ID. This is common sense. Nobody in America really outwardly opposes this. 80% of Americans support it. Democrats, a majority of Democrats support it. People of all walks of life, whether you're male, female, whether you're black, white, Hispanic, you support this piece of legislation. Only the United States Senate is presenting a barrier to getting this common sense bill passed. And so to answer your question, I think first, the House, we need to continue to pass it. Speaker Johnson and I had a conversation this week, and I believe we're working to include the Save Act, the Save America Act on the National Defense Authorization Act so we can send another vehicle to the Senate to see if they'll break loose and pass it. We've passed it, as you know, three times. We're looking for the Senate to do their job. But at the end of the day, it's up to willpower. The Senate has the ability to do it. And for Senate Republicans, you keep saying they don't have the votes. That's simply false. They've already had a test vote and they had 50 votes for it. And with J.D. Vance, that's 51. It's a matter of having the willpower to structure the Senate to have whether it's a talking filibuster or any other mechanism they want to carry forward to force the bill to the floor at a majority vote. They can choose to do it. They're just simply not.

OK, so a lot has happened today, but I've got a concern. We do have a lot to do. A lot of work that needs to be done, the Save America Act really does need to be passed. Why are we taking a recess right now? Why on earth is the Senate wanting to recess for two weeks? Now, I get it. America's 250th birthday is coming up. That's great. It's all the more reason why we should finish our work. It's all the more reason why we should finish, do everything we possibly can to pass the Save America Act instead of recessing for two weeks only to come back and work for a few weeks and then recess for another five or six weeks after that. Why? Why even bother to spend all this time and all this effort campaigning and running for office if, when we get here, we're constantly taking a recess, a recess at a moment when the Republican Party controls the House and the Senate and the White House? Why? Why do we do this? There's got to be a better way, a way that doesn't constantly involve saying, "Oh, wait, we got to take a recess. We've got to leave." The American people deserve better than this. They deserve to have free and fair elections, and we've got to fix it.

From top to bottom: Rep. Barry Moore (@RepBarryMoore), Rep. Marlin Stutzman (@RepStutzman), Rep. Riley M. Moore (@RepRileyMoore), and Congressman Troy Downing (@RepTroyDowning). Each post text argues that a recent security incident (described as an assassination attempt) underscores the need to build a White House ballroom for secure large-scale events, and references President Trump and funding for Secret Service/DHS security.

Text in image: Rep. Barry Moore ✓ 🇺🇸 @RepBarryMoore Follow What we saw this past weekend was a third attempt on @POTUS' life in the last two years. For the safety and security of all future presidents, build the ballroom. Rep. Marlin Stutzman ✓ 🇺🇸 @RepStutzman Follow With the White House Correspondents Dinner marking ANOTHER attempt on President Trump's life, security should now must be of utmost concern! Enough is enough. The White House ballroom needs to be built so that large events like this can be held securely. Rep. Riley M. Moore ✓ 🇺🇸 @RepRileyMoore Follow You would think that Washington would get tired of President Trump being right all the time. President Trump has the ability to see around corners, and is able to make decisions that are best for the country. He's right again. We must get this ballroom built immediately for everyone's safety. Congressman Troy Downing ✓ 🇺🇸 @RepTroyDowning Follow God bless our Secret Service agents and law enforcement who put their lives on the line every day. It's time to build the @POTUS ballroom and fully fund DHS. Our national security shouldn't be a political bargaining chip.

Screenshot of a tweet/post from Lindsey Graham (@LindseyGrahamSC, verified account, profile photo of a man in a suit gesturing while speaking), timestamped 12:13 PM · Mar 31, 2026, with 126.7K views. The post argues that the media is unreliable on DHS funding, blames Democrats for DHS funding lapse and unpaid employees over demands related to ICE and CBP, calls those demands "handcuffs" rather than reforms, and states he won't give in to what he calls hostage-taking demands that endanger federal agents.

Text in image: Lindsey Graham ✓ 🛡️ @LindseyGrahamSC If you count on the lazy and biased media to tell you what's going on in Washington regarding @DHSgov funding, you are making a mistake. Here's the reality. The Department of Homeland Security is not being funded and its employees are not being paid because Democrats refuse to vote for funding unless Republicans agree to hamstring @ICEgov and @CBP. The Democrats' demands are not reforms – they're handcuffs. I'm willing to work on DHS reforms, but our country's national security cannot be held hostage. I have no intention of giving in to hostage-taking and unreasonable demands that impede federal agents' ability to do their jobs and, in some cases, put their lives at risk. 12:13 PM · Mar 31, 2026 · 126.7K Views

And the president happens to believe, and I agree, that we need to lower interest rates. I think we need to take a look at this quantitative easing that's going on. By the way, I'm very happy with the president working with Fannie Mae and Fannie Mac and buying back those bonds to bring interest rates down and impact the cost of housing right now. So there's lots of great things out there the president is doing to impact the true problems and that would be the cost of housing, thanks to four years of Joe Biden's inflation that led to a 50% increase in housing costs.

After what's been exposed with the daycares in Minnesota, I'm a licensed private investigator in California. I started looking into state records and I found ghost daycares. These are places where the state inspectors showed up. There would be 28 kids enrolled and there were no kids there in the middle of the day and in the middle of the week. All right. So a ghost daycare, is that something Gavin Newsom could say, all right, you know, we'll try to shut that down. Does he cooperate when you start raising this? No, in fact, today it got word from the governor's office. There's been a directive to actually shut down public access. So right now you can't even search the own state website to look into these ghost daycares. But I have found a workaround. Okay. Well, we don't want to tell the governor that you found a workaround. So, but it does sound like he's trying to cover his tracks. Like this is a cover up. We're talking about billions of dollars in California. Today in New York, Kathy Hochul, she said she wants to increase childcare subsidies to 4.5 billion. We're talking about the same amount in California, if not even more.

Lower prices, lower taxes, more jobs, better paying jobs, more money in people's pockets. That's what the American people voted for. They rejected the Democrats last time because they were the party of high prices and open borders. They wanted the Republicans to bring to them safety and prosperity. And that's what this is all about. Money in their pockets, better jobs, and bringing jobs back home from overseas.

We're going to do our part at EPA and you're also seeing this as part of the debate in Congress to get President Trump's one big beautiful bill over the finish line because while there's a lot of focus on tax cuts and securing the border and interior enforcement, there's a lot in the energy and environmental space which includes refilling the strategic petroleum reserve, suspending a natural gas tax for 10 years, more oil and gas leases including more coal leases on federal land and more, and permitting reform is part of that too. So there's a lot that can be done by agencies, there's also more that can be done by Congress, all of this helps fulfill the agenda. And I understand you're EPA, you're not the energy secretary, and I know that you follow all this stuff because you have a very complex job, but we saw the president spend a lot of time in the Middle East and making a lot of deals. Does that come into play as far as the goal of reducing energy prices? Is that part of the equation? Is getting these countries more favorable leverage over these countries and better relationships with these countries will lead to cheaper energy prices throughout the country? Because that really is such a crucial part of I think what his agenda has been, which is the lower cost for the American people. When President Trump is communicating abroad with nations or meeting with foreign leaders from Washington DC or traveling overseas, such as his trip to the Middle East, there is a very robust America first agenda that he goes with to try to deliver on. And certainly energy policy is something that is top of mind, exporting American energy production or looking at what is produced on farms and so much more. There's a lot of opportunity for the American economy for us to be net exporters of these resources. And I would argue that it's better for our environment because we tap into our energy supply safer than so many other countries around the world. It's important for our national security. It's better for our economy. Certainly when the president goes to the Middle East and he has a robust America first agenda, he's thinking about American energy and he's thinking about American interest as it relates to American energy. So whether he's here at home or abroad, it's certainly something I've heard get brought up a lot. And there have been many meetings with the president in the White House, in the Oval Office, at the Resolute Desk, where he's asking tough questions. He's making big demands on these cabinet secretaries, myself included, to make sure that we're fulfilling this Trump mandate. And I'm glad that he's holding us to that standard of delivering.

I really, truly believe President Trump is doing the right thing for American people. Every public safety threat we take off the street make this country safer. That is the career I chose, that's the career a lot of ICE agents chose. We're going to do this job. And that brings me to another point, the big, beautiful bill. We need the Senate to get off their butts and pass this bill. More money means we can do more. We can arrest more public safety threats. We can arrest more national security threats. So Congress needs to pass that bill and give ICE and Border Patrol the tools and resources they need to get this job done.

in reality, Maria, they're protesting because this has been the most effective, most impactful, in a positive sense, 100 days, certainly in my lifetime. Chuck Schumer seems to forget that in November of last year, 75% of the American public felt this nation was on the wrong track. As President Trump has come into office, he's fixed our border. He's put us on a fundamentally different plane in terms of crime in America. He's addressing some of the longstanding issues that we've had with some of our partners. We're moving in the right direction. And I think that the Democrat Party is imploding as a result of it. Today is, you know, So exhibit A at that point.

I joined the Democratic Party over 20 years ago. I was 21 years old in Hawaii and at that time I did welcome people from all different backgrounds, different views, celebrated free speech and actually defended those whose speech was being attacked even if they disagreed with their views. It was a party that stood up for the little guy and represented our values of freedom and liberty in America. I left the Democrat Party because now it stands for the exact opposite of all of those things. Free speech is not an absolute. Social media sites, they aren't speaking to millions of people without oversight or regulation and that has to stop. I never would have imagined as an American and as a soldier that we would live in a country in my lifetime where we would feel like we have to self-censor what we say, that we couldn't criticize our own government for fear of them labeling us as a domestic terrorist. We are closer to the brink of World War III and nuclear war today than we ever have been before, directly because of the Harris-Biden administration's foreign policy. Too many Americans are struggling just to afford the basic necessities of life. No matter how many times we've heard Kamala Harris and Joe Biden over these last four years tout and celebrate how Bidenomics has been great for America, America's economy is strong. Polls consistently show that a majority of the American people disapprove of the President's handling of the economy. Guess what? It's working. Over half of Americans earning a six-figure salary report that they're actually living paycheck to paycheck. Bidenomics is working. It is actually working. The number of homeless people on the streets and in shelters across the U.S. increased significantly this year. Bidenomics is working. It's almost as though they're speaking from an ivory tower saying how great they are and patting themselves on the back while people are struggling for crumbs on the streets. This election really isn't about the left versus the right. It's about choosing. We the people choosing our government and the choice between freedom versus tyranny. The Department of Defense under Biden's authority quietly codified its right to deploy lethal force against its own citizens on American soil. I'm proud to endorse Donald Trump in this election because he is our best pope. Specifically because of the leadership that President Trump has brought to transform the Republican Party and bring it back to the party of the people, the party of equality, the party that was founded to fight against and end slavery in this country. It is the party of common sense and the party that is led by a president who has the courage and strength to fight for peace. Mr. Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to ever set foot inside North Korea yesterday. And this is why they will do everything possible to try to destroy him. Because this man has the courage to take them on and root out the deep rot of corruption in Washington. My message to my fellow Americans, regardless of your political affiliation, now is the time for us to stand together to save our country. A vote for President Trump is a vote for a big open tent party that welcomes people from all backgrounds and all walks of life. A vote for President Trump is a vote to express our deep love for our country and our appreciation for our God given rights and freedoms enshrined in the Constitution. A vote for President Trump is a vote for secure borders and safe communities, and a vote for President Trump is a vote for peace here in America and around the world. Thank you so much. Pay for it by Maha Alliance and not authorized by any candidate or candidate's committee.

addressed the comment that Joe Biden made yesterday or last night that said the supporters of Donald Trump, us, are garbage, are garbage. I can assure you we're not garbage. How dare he say that looking out. I see police officers, teachers, nurses, grandparents, students. I see everyday Americans that make this country great.

Hello, my name is Artel Cueto, I'm Vice President of the National Border Patrol Council. I was extremely bothered recently by the comments made by Kamala Harris comparing Trump supporters to Nazis. As a Hispanic and as a member of the law enforcement community, that is a tremendous slap in the face and once again it proves why Kamala Harris is just unfit to be president of this country. Remember, this November 5th, put your trust in the one person that does not want to divide this country and has fought for law enforcement and for many other members of the community. Put your trust in Donald J. Trump because a vote for Donald J. Trump is not just a win for him, it's a win for America.

But Lee's right, and I think that she has outlined one of the flaws of the Harris campaign, which is, you know, as Republicans point out, consistently, as she's putting forward a new way forward, she's currently in office. She currently has access to the levers of power.

Kamala Harris in a debate last week, she lied about Donald Trump's bloodbath comments. Why does she say that? Because she wants to invoke a negative energy around the campaign of Donald Trump. Frankly, to affect these under sighted voters that we talked about at the top. - There could be a lot of fact, I mean, Congressman, you and I have gone back and forth a lot about fact checking that can happen. - Kate, Kate, Kate, can you acknowledge that Kamala Harris lied about the Charlottesville comments again, something that even Snopes has debunked and said is fake news, that it is wrong, that his statements were taken out of context. Those are the direct lies coming from Kamala Harris. So if you're gonna talk about the invective put into this campaign, that Kamala Harris and her campaign has done, trying to invoke a negative response from voters in our country, versus Donald Trump talking about issues, whether it be in a city, or quite frankly, you could bring up Aurora, Colorado, or you could bring up Denver, Colorado, that have been overrun by-- - Congressman, there are lots of things can be brought up, which is also if you're talking.

Yeah, she was, she was actually asked if I recall correctly, the first question, we better up now, you know, than we were. And she started all this aspirational, inspirational ambitions and this and that. She didn't answer any questions. The but I came away from this saying to myself, 30% of Americans don't know what Kamala Harris stands for. And they still don't know what she stands for. But when I came away with that, no, and I agree with Greg, the voters lost last night, the voters lost for several reasons. And this, this segment is about the legacy media. To me, ABC didn't care about the truth. They were pushing libelous questions. The questions were like a push poll, like you call someone up allegedly trying to get, you know, find out what people are thinking. But you know, isn't it true that the rooster killed the duck or whatever? And you know, the person said, yeah, yeah, of course it's true. You know, and that they would actually go to the, to Charlottesville and ask that question as though that hasn't already been debunked and she never had to answer anything. And the major networks sanction these lies as if they were truths. And that is how the major, the network and the legacy media put the final nail on the coffin. Donald Trump told us about fake news last night was the end of the legacy media. And if I were ever to do a debate again, I would not do it on the legacy media. We were fooled by CNN. CNN just kind of sat there, but you know why, you know why it was level with CNN? Because CNN was complicit with the Dems. They wanted Joe Biden out. So it was a fair debate. This was, we got to take Kamala side. We got to make like January 6th, every time she lied, they would not fact check her. She says 140 police officers were injured and some died on January 6th. What police officer died on January 6th? Ashley Babbitt died on January 6th. And then they go on and on and on, you know, and third term abortion. She wouldn't answer the question. They didn't push for an answer. And you know, I got to say one more thing. Who the hell do they think they are fact checking when David Muir says, well, I didn't get that. What was it? The impression on the whisker won by a whisker. What was that term that he used? He said, you know, I didn't interpret it that way. We're not asking you for your interpretation of what Donald Trump said. And finally, ABC News claim that Trump was wrong when Trump said crime is going up. They said, no, crime is going down. They're wrong. They lied. And I'll tell you why. Because the FBI has made it clear that 30% of the police departments, including New York City and Los Angeles, did not respond to their request about crime. I have the stat right here. So they pushed lies. They defamed the president to push Kamala, who answered no question and was the queen of theatrics.

And it's unusual because we've never had a candidate like Harris 56 days before the election who's been gone under so little scrutiny. I mean, barely, you know, we have one interview, no debates. This has never happened in modern politics. And so this isn't about, you know, great expectations. This is about some great explanations. And I think the pressure is really on Harris because even when she finally put some policies up on her website this week, it's already been revealed, I think, even by this network that most of that was cut and paste from the Biden website. And so, you know, she's part of this administration. She's part of the challenges. She's part of the inflation. She's part of the border invasion. She owns all that. And I think that, you know, tonight she's going to try to run away from that. I don't know how she's going to be able to when she's herself proclaimed, you know, she's the last person in the room when some of these important decisions were made, even like the disastrous withdrawal of Afghanistan. So she has to own the record. She's got to defend it. I think that puts her in a tough spot. President Trump is by the voters viewed as the change agent in this debate. And the majority, even in the New York Times poll yesterday, said almost two thirds of American looking for change. And he's the one that could bring change back to a time in an era that where people remember where they had more net income coming into their household than they do today.

Harris is trying to do here is really bizarre, which is she's trying to run as the change candidate. She's trying to treat Donald J. Trump like he is the incumbent president. And that's utterly disconnected from reality. She is the current administration. And normally the way VPs run is they say, hey, we did a great job. The president did a great job. Let's continue the successes of the administration I was the VP in. Well, the problem is Biden and Harris, their policy record is a complete train wreck. And so you look at her convention speech, you look at that interview the entire time. She's saying, well, I would do this to secure the border. It's like, well, if you would do that, why don't you do that? You're in charge right now today. And so everything she's saying she would do the way I would put it is actions speak louder than words. We know what she'll do on the border because she's been borders are for four years. And we've had 11 and a half million people invade this country because she refuses to enforce the law. We know what she'll do on energy because she, she and Joe Biden have been in charge for four years and they've waged a war on energy that has driven the cost of gasoline and everything else through the roof. And so I hope tomorrow night in the debate that, that, that Trump really prosecutes her record versus his record, because on almost every measure, the lives of the American people were much better when Trump was president. We had a Republican Senate and a Republican House than they are now under the Biden-Harris record.

- If you live in Arizona, you've been over... Right, you've been overwhelmed by legal immigrants for the last four years. When you ask people in Arizona, who do you trust to fix a broken immigration system? Is Trump plus nine to the people in Arizona? Do you really believe she's gonna build a wall? That's just bullshit. She said four years to build a wall and she's done nothing. For the last four years, they've turned every Trump policy upside down that prevented illegal immigration and we're being overrun with 10 million people. They're not gonna do anything to fix America's problems. If you're looking for her to get this nation back on track, you're looking to the wrong person. The truth lies in their record. Their record is horrible, it is terrible. Four years of Trump, this was a safe country, a prosperous country and a safe world. Four years of Harris and Biden, the world is on fire, inflation is through the roof and the border is broken and we're risking another 9/11.

The problem is going to be Kamala Harris's record and Kamala Harris's policies. The American people are suffering because Kamala Harris keeps on making bad decisions. I don't really care who she chooses as a running mate. It's not going to be good for the country and we're ready, meaning President Trump and I are ready, to take the case to the American people that Donald Trump delivered peace. He delivered prosperity. Kamala Harris has delivered an open border and skyrocketing inflation. It's really just not a hard argument to make, but we're going to make it as aggressively and persuasively as we can to the American people for about the next 95 or so days.

You know that his decision to announce the thing about TIPS was not something that was focus-grouped, that was not something that was part of a ten-point plan that his economic team came up with. He realized the value of it, and he jumped on it. I think the fact that the service unions had to put out a statement so quickly is evidence of how effective that plank could be. And once again, as we've seen with a lot of the other unions, shows the division between the union's leadership themselves and their members. Their members are going to love this. The members don't care what their union is. You see that a lot with the Republican candidates, especially Trump, where the members are blue collar and more conservative.

>> But look, here's the end of the day, the best way to deal with this is number one, go to donaldjtrump.com, sign up to volunteer, donate cuz we need to win this election. That's number two, the real verdict is gonna be in November when we win that election. And then I think truly down the road, we're gonna have to look at a way, Democrats and Republicans hopefully together, but I don't know, to prevent this kind of thing from happening again in the future. We cannot become one of those countries where people, once they leave office, are targeted through the court system by their political opponents. That's what happens in Peru, that's what's happened in Brazil, that's what's happened in all these countries. It cannot happen here, and that is the direction we are headed right now of what's happened here today. I know voters are gonna be outraged, Trump's gonna win this election, but we gotta make sure this never happens to anyone else ever again.
