They still don’t have the votes to pass SAVE. One corrupt, opportunist, self-serving Senator isn’t going to pass it.

lol only reason he flipped is to save his own ass. james talarico is leading both GOP chucklefucks in the polls and it fucking terrifies them. i would view this more as watching a dude in the death throes of his reelection campaign rather than a serious development.

It still appears unlikely that the filibuster will be removed, but this of course is not encouraging news. The pressure on remaining senators from the administration will be signficant.

Great thing is every so often a MAGA thread pops up on my social media. They are all calling him a Rhino for opposing removing the filibuster in the first place. Those from Texas are all saying they are Paxton no matter what. Texas going blue is getting more and more promising.

Was that flip worth it- if he does this Trump will own him on every vote and negotiation moving forward.
And Trump is endorsing him anyway because as much as Trump is a man baby who likes a sycophant, Paxton is polling way too poorly to survive any late surge of voters or the off chance Rs have pissed off Hispanics even worse.

Self-serving swine. Flips on everyone who fought for their rights through a heavily flawed constitution.

Mississippi had numerous issues yesterday with purged voters who were still active. The Mississippi Secretary of State used Experian credit checks to “confirm” addresses and apparently messed it all up. Kicked people off the roles because Experian couldn’t confirm their addresses, even though they lived there.
Funny thing is, it hit MEN the most, so it is getting more press in Mississippi.

Look at the way he literally waves the questions off before saying “I think we’re through”. There’s no longer even the mask of pro-democracy left in the GOP.

If anyone here is not paying atttention, he did this just so he could earn Trump’s endorsement for the runoff against Paxton.

Cornyn didn’t support getting rid of the filibuster before Paxton made passing the SAVE ACT a requirement to drop out of the primary runoff.
>Now, locked in a competitive Republican runoff for his Senate seat and eyeing President Donald Trump’s endorsement, Cornyn says he’ll support “whatever changes to Senate rules that may prove necessary” *to get Daddy’s endorsement.*

Look, another gop imbecile trying to suck the orange fascists dick for an endorsement. The GOP party needs to stop with voter suppression & concede the house. They ruined our country with the time they had and can sit out the rest of their lives with no power to ruin our lives anymore

Yet another reason to vote for James Talarico.

Willing to destroy his country just to save his seat where he doesn’t do anything but serve as a sycophant for Trump. Fucking comical.

I don’t understand how the SAVE act doesn’t directly violate the 24th amendment. Isn’t the poll tax amendment explicitly designed to prevent any financial burden put upon voters? I just re-ordered a copy of my birth certificate, it cost $60.

I don’t support the filibuster, but this news sheds a little light on the calculations and maneuvering of the GOP and the admin.
There’s still not enough public outrage leading to any sort of action. At minimum, all Americans should be canceling all subscriptions to big tech companies. There needs to be a massive economic boycott. At this point, Iran is doing more to damage our fascist regime than Americans.

THE SAVE ACT IT ISNT A VOTER ID BILL!!
IT ALLOWS DHS TO PURGE STATE VOTER ROLLS EVERY 30 DAYS UP TO THE DAY OF AN ELECTION!!!
The SAVE Act amends the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) to require states to submit their entire voter registration lists to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) at least every 30 days.
While the bill uses the phrase “on an ongoing basis” for general maintenance which includes removal of “suspected non citizens”, the specific 30-day mandate refers to the required data-sharing and verification process with federal agencies, who will take over normal voter removal processes, and allows the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT UNDER DHS TO REMOVE VOTER FROM STATE ROLLS for being *suspected* of being a non citizen, forcing them to re-register, in person, with NO 90 day quiet period before an election.
This information is hidden in a hyperlink in THE SAVE act under the non citizen immigrant portion (which no one noticed because non citizens don’t vote)

well, that does it. Next time the pendulum swings, if these fuckers don’t prevent it from ever swinging again, every possible liberal course of action that can be taken with 51 votes should be taken. Every single session, something that no Republican would ever vote for should be passed. Over and over and over again.

The Destroy the Integrity of Elections Act is the most transparent effort to rig elections since the KKK terrorized the post-Reconstruction South, murdered their way to power, and proceeded to disenfrachise blacks for 80 years.

Traitors. All of them.
The end of democracy.
If they do this they will steal every foreseeable election.
