And if you like the show, you'll love the podcast that we do three days a week.
00:00:15.240
So make sure you download Vertique with Ted Cruz wherever you get your podcasts.
00:00:23.020
Senator, as we start, I rarely get to give you a hard time.
00:00:30.880
And I just love the number of followers that you have because I don't get to give you a hard time.
00:00:41.500
So if you want to, like, actually be seen when you follow Senator Cruz, like, you could be the first one, like, second one, third one.
00:00:53.660
So we just opened a TikTok account two days ago.
00:00:57.000
So I am at a measly 2,000 followers, which is, look, it's two days into it.
00:01:05.680
But, you know, I got to say my teenage daughters have already told me I'm not nearly cool enough to be on TikTok.
00:01:11.560
I will not be doing teenage dance moves, although I will neither confirm nor deny I may have done them at their requests at home.
00:01:22.480
We're also trying to bribe them for said videos so that we can put them on TikTok.
00:01:28.040
Well, look, I have deliberately stayed off TikTok because when the Chinese communists controlled it, I didn't want to be subject to their surveillance or propaganda.
00:01:39.260
But because President Trump got the deal through and moved them to American ownership and control, we've opened up yet a TikTok account.
00:01:49.400
So now we're communicating on Twitter, on Facebook, on Instagram.
00:01:53.300
And you are going to dance for Mardi Gras, though.
00:01:55.420
I was told that's like one of the things, like certain holidays you'll do things, right?
00:02:00.900
No matter how many beads you give me, the answer is no.
00:02:04.780
No matter how many beads that T.C. gets, Senator Cruz gets, I like that.
00:02:12.000
Do you know what your handle is, right, when you set it up?
00:02:20.300
I thought the Chinese would have registered that years ago.
00:02:22.480
Okay, so it's not at Ted Cruz America, Ted Cruz Flying Eagle.
00:02:26.600
I thought we were going to have to get creative there.
00:02:29.420
Same thing my Twitter handle is, which is Ted Cruz.
00:02:33.340
At Ted Cruz on TikTok, you can be one of the first ones to get on the edge there.
00:02:37.680
Now, Twitter, we're north of 10 million between the two accounts.
00:02:41.460
But we're just at 2,000 on TikTok, so we've got some work to do.
00:02:48.140
That is what you call a congressional flex there.
00:02:52.220
I promised the family that was your rebuttal at home as well
00:02:56.160
when they said you weren't cool enough for TikTok.
00:02:59.480
Welcome to the crazy world of TikTok, and you can make him go forward and backwards
00:03:04.560
It's going to be exciting to see what's out there.
00:03:06.160
I can tell you're excited about that aspect of it.
00:03:09.460
I may be doing every TikTok with a cat filter on, although I think that's like seven generations
00:03:16.200
So we've got a lot to talk about on today's show.
00:03:19.920
So let's go through what we're going to talk about today.
00:03:22.600
So Keith Ellison, the attorney general of Minnesota, testified in the Senate this week.
00:03:27.300
It was a train wreck falling off a bridge on fire and exploding.
00:03:31.920
I think that is the understated way to put how well his testimony went.
00:03:37.600
He refused to take responsibility for any of the massive fraud in his state.
00:03:42.880
He refused to take responsibility for his own wrongdoing.
00:03:47.800
So it was exactly what you would have expected from Keith Ellison.
00:03:51.120
We're also going to talk about that Democrats are responsible for the single largest spill
00:04:07.620
And finally, we're going to we're going to talk about the Save America Act, where it
00:04:11.100
is, what the Senate needs to do to pass it, how we protect integrity in our elections.
00:04:15.900
All of those are in today's pod and today's show.
00:04:19.780
So make sure you download Verdict with Ted Cruz.
00:04:23.460
And you can also watch, as I mentioned earlier, on YouTube and even some of the shorts on
00:04:28.100
So let's start with Ellison testifying and really fail to take accountability for Minnesota
00:04:34.700
It is not surprising that he wanted to deflect in a major way.
00:04:40.440
That's what he's decided to do, obviously, Senator.
00:04:45.160
But it didn't really work out for him when he had to answer real questions.
00:04:52.880
We're going to start with Josh Hawley, my colleague, who questioned.
00:05:00.460
Ellison was battling and dodging the whole time.
00:05:08.060
Are you familiar with the $9 billion in historic fraud out of your state, including the $250
00:05:13.520
million in the Feeding Our Future program alone?
00:05:17.620
Don't turn to the pages in your book to get your potted answers.
00:05:24.100
Because the people who ran the Feeding Our Futures program came to you in your official
00:05:28.560
office in the state capitol, December 11th, 2021, and asked for your help in getting investigators
00:05:36.860
They complained to you for upwards of an hour about state investigators going after them.
00:05:55.700
You said to them, send me the names of all these folks who are investigating them.
00:06:04.960
And I'll call the person over at education who is investigating them and say, what's going
00:06:11.840
Then you went on to say, I already have my team working on this.
00:06:16.080
What day should we get together to discuss it again?
00:06:22.540
You said, we've got to make sure this guy who's investigating them stops it.
00:06:32.860
Meaning the people who are investigating the fraud.
00:06:42.100
So first of all, you're cherry picking quotes out of there.
00:06:54.560
Now see, Mr. Chairman, I didn't come here to be insulted.
00:07:04.320
And every member of this audience can listen to the recording.
00:07:27.760
My team assisted with the information that led to the prosecution and conviction of these people.
00:07:40.600
You had whistleblowers coming to you as early as 2019.
00:07:45.640
You're the one who doesn't know what you're talking about, sir.
00:07:47.560
You now have encountered the truth and you don't like it.
00:07:53.760
What's the movie where you can't handle the truth?
00:08:01.360
I knew when you were grinning, that's what you were thinking.
00:08:02.360
It is the greatest missed opportunity in the history of Senate hearings that Keith Ellison
00:08:15.720
Oh, I mean, it was screaming for him to say it.
00:08:20.380
But listen, the reality is Keith Ellison doesn't want anything resembling the truth.
00:08:29.780
And it is the criminals coming to the attorney general saying, would you stop the people who
00:08:37.960
And the attorney general, this left-wing Democrat who was getting elected by these criminals,
00:08:47.620
Josh Hawley's question, why'd you take the money?
00:08:49.940
Let's listen to that question and what the facts are.
00:08:53.800
And spoiler alert, Ellison's just going to lie.
00:09:30.940
They said, we will put our dollars in the right place.
00:09:34.360
We will support candidates that will fight to protect our interests.
00:09:38.620
They said, if you are securing your donor base and securing your power base,
00:09:49.740
The amount of money circulating in our community today is powerful.
00:09:53.340
And we haven't realized it in a meaningful way.
00:09:57.960
And nine days later, you took $10,000 from people who were then indicted.
00:10:11.860
This is what accountability looks like, of which you've had none.
00:10:15.000
You helped fraudsters defraud your state and this government of $9 billion,
00:10:20.340
and you got a fat campaign contribution out of it.
00:10:28.860
Well, for the record, he's lying, and that's the truth.
00:10:34.500
Did you bother to investigate where the money that you facilitated their fraud for, where it went?
00:10:41.220
Do you know where it went, what it was used for, the fraudulent money?
00:10:43.820
I do, because we just heard testimony about it yesterday.
00:10:46.720
Because we were key players in the investigation.
00:10:49.500
Hundreds of millions of dollars to terrorist groups, to transnational criminal organizations,
00:10:53.680
to the drug trade, to drug trafficking, to child trafficking.
00:11:02.260
You know, the other thing is, whistleblowers came to you as early as 2019.
00:11:18.600
Well, I should call you a prisoner, because you ought to be in jail.
00:11:21.740
In 2019, whistleblowers came to you in your office,
00:11:26.020
and referred to you fraud allegations from Feeding Our Futures, and you blew them off.
00:11:32.040
The Minnesota Star Tribune, the Partners in Nutrition, brought its concerns to the Attorney
00:11:36.340
General's office in 2018 and in 2019, and you did nothing.
00:11:42.500
The only action you took is, once all these fraudsters came to your office,
00:11:46.560
and asked you to get involved and offered you money, then you got involved.
00:11:50.540
Then you took the money, and then you got involved.
00:11:55.980
You met with them for 54 minutes, and you took $10,000, and they also gave your family money.
00:12:01.960
They gave your family thousands of dollars in campaign contributions,
00:12:12.500
Minnesota Keith Ellison, AG, accepted campaign donations from individuals linked to the $250 million
00:12:17.200
COVID fraud scheme after they were in your office.
00:12:19.860
The donations came on December 20th, you met with them on December the 11th,
00:12:23.900
and on January 20th, the FBI knocked over their headquarters.
00:12:31.400
You've been right at the center of this fraud thing from the beginning, and you've enabled it.
00:12:38.920
I mean, you look at this hearing, and he's like, you know, good luck with that, basically putting me in jail.
00:12:44.680
He does seem incredibly arrogant and cocky for a guy that's being accused of all these things.
00:12:48.860
But I guess they've just been conditioned, right?
00:12:51.520
Yeah, he's never been called to account, and his response is just a lie.
00:12:57.240
By the way, he doesn't have any facts to the contrary, and when Josh lays out the receipts,
00:13:01.840
that he actually received the contributions, received them nine days after meeting with the fraudsters
00:13:08.200
and promising to help them, he has no response other than scream, liar, liar, liar.
00:13:14.620
Keith Ellison, like the rest of the Minnesota Democrats, is extreme and radical.
00:13:19.600
Listen to him here, refusing to condemn Louis Farrakhan's bigotry and anti-Semitism.
00:13:25.460
This is Bernie Moreno, senator from Ohio, questioning him.
00:13:35.120
Will you condemn Louis Farrakhan's comments, saying that Judaism is a dirty religion?
00:13:40.300
You know, sir, I thought I was coming here to talk about immigration policy.
00:13:47.560
I thought I was talking about immigration policy.
00:13:50.200
I didn't know that we were going to be talking about all these matters.
00:13:54.560
I mean, I'm reluctant to just sort of, I mean, we already had one thing where we didn't mention immigration policy at all.
00:14:01.160
Now, I'm fine with you asking about questions around asylum and things like that.
00:14:07.740
But now we're going off in all kind of different directions.
00:14:10.680
I think there should be some scope to this hearing.
00:14:16.660
And we both share a need to condemn anti-Semitism.
00:14:21.500
Senator, I love how it's almost like he's trying to steal a line from Donald Trump.
00:14:24.900
They're like, thank you for your attention to this matter.
00:14:28.000
Well, and of course, he was completely unwilling to condemn Louis Farrakhan's vicious anti-Semitism.
00:14:42.980
Look, a related – he said he was willing to talk about immigration.
00:14:47.600
Well, when it comes to the anti-ICE protesters in Minnesota,
00:14:52.080
you remember the ones that burst into the church service and disturbed the Christian church?
00:14:56.320
Well, Keith Ellison did an interview about that where he said, quote,
00:15:03.440
I think that protest is fundamental to American society.
00:15:07.740
People have a right to lift up their voices and make their peace.
00:15:10.460
And none of us are immune to the voice of the public.
00:15:13.020
And then he says they're getting tender about a church service now.
00:15:17.720
So he is, of course, siding with the anti-ICE protesters who are disrupting a church service,
00:15:23.920
which, by the way, is a violation of federal law, the Federal Face Act.
00:15:27.400
And his statement, they're getting tender about a church service.
00:15:33.640
Just a minute ago, he refused to condemn Louis Farrakhan's bigotry and anti-Semitism.
00:15:38.640
And instead, he said, can we talk about immigration policy?
00:15:45.300
Bernie Moreno did ask him about immigration policy, and it didn't go so well.
00:15:50.000
Mexico and Canada, do you consider those to be safe countries or no?
00:16:05.040
So then somebody seeking asylum could certainly be safe in Canada and Mexico, no?
00:16:11.300
Now, so, like, if somebody, we do know that in Mexico, which is another country I truly admire
00:16:17.620
and think it's a wonderful country, but there have been cases of persecution,
00:16:30.100
So maybe we shouldn't have a free trade agreement with them then.
00:16:33.540
Senator, he didn't like answering those questions at all, did he?
00:16:35.980
After he already said he wanted to bring up the topic.
00:16:42.680
And I got to say, his testimony was nothing but a bunch of crap.
00:16:48.420
Now, that actually happens to be highly relevant because our next story is really an amazing
00:16:53.500
story that deals with Democrats and a bunch of crap.
00:16:57.820
Democrats in Washington, D.C. and Virginia and Maryland are responsible for the largest
00:17:10.740
The failure in a section of a 72-inch sewer pipe in Maryland has released close to a billion,
00:17:19.200
that's with a B, a billion gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac River just inside the
00:17:26.960
It's now considered the largest spill of wastewater in U.S. history.
00:17:34.140
Maryland and Virginia Democrats haven't said a word.
00:17:41.060
They don't want you to know this is like a massive oil spill, except it's raw sewage in
00:17:46.920
It is going to have an impact on like everything there, including the fish and the crabs and
00:17:54.920
And usually the left is like the scream and yell and show up for the wildlife and PETA and
00:18:01.220
all of that when you have things happen that they don't like.
00:18:04.160
But on this one, they're like, let's just be quiet and act like it's not happening.
00:18:07.460
And a billion gallons of sewage is going into the Potomac, right?
00:18:12.300
Like, we just won't cover it, we won't talk about it.
00:18:15.120
A billion gallons of human waste, of human excrement, was dumped into the Potomac River.
00:18:21.640
And Democrats, look, Democrats' answer to everything is government.
00:18:27.360
And the dirty little secret, whether it's Minnesota or whether it's Maryland and D.C.,
00:18:31.380
is Democrats are really, really bad at government.
00:18:36.940
In like two weeks, he's like, can't figure out how to get trash or melt ice or deal with the
00:18:44.660
And by the way, D.C., for the last two weeks, has been buried in snow.
00:18:48.360
They can't figure out how to shovel the sidewalks.
00:18:53.380
I did an event with President Trump at the Treasury Department, I think it was two weeks
00:18:59.120
ago, where to get into the Treasury Department, I literally had to scale basically the snow
00:19:04.620
bank that was about four feet high because there was no break in it.
00:19:17.660
And my press secretary was in four-inch spike high heels.
00:19:29.620
And D.C.'s judgment proof they have no money because they're run by Democrats.
00:19:33.860
But listen to some more details on this sewage spill.
00:19:36.960
Because I'm curious, has this been on the 6 o'clock news on any of the networks?
00:19:43.880
I mean, until we go through the rundown, I didn't know about this until we were planning
00:19:49.020
the show for today, had not heard about it at all.
00:19:57.500
Water CEO David Gattis resolved to do everything possible to reclaim the Potomac River after
00:20:02.400
last month's disastrous sewer pipe break, he said in an open letter to the community
00:20:08.720
The failure in a section of 72-inch sewer pipe known as the Potomac Interceptor resulted
00:20:14.240
in the release of hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage into the river just inside
00:20:18.620
the Beltway along the C&O Canal in Montgomery County, Maryland.
00:20:21.920
It's considered the largest spill of wastewater in U.S. history.
00:20:25.640
Quote, the Potomac River is a shared natural treasure.
00:20:29.040
And in any event, and in any event that threatens its health, understandably causes concern, frustration,
00:20:40.380
Water, Gattis said in the letter, not mentioning, that's why Democrats are dropping a billion
00:20:45.800
gallons of crap into the water that you care about.
00:20:49.460
The letter went on to explain that on January 19th, Cruz noticed unusual activity in security
00:20:54.920
cameras monitoring an odor control facility along the C&O Canal.
00:20:59.340
I would imagine that would cause some unusual activity.
00:21:01.500
A billion gallons, if you can't smell that, you've got a problem.
00:21:05.320
Upon inspection, the Cruz discovered the break.
00:21:08.420
In the days since the discovery, D.C. water personnel and contractors worked to, quote,
00:21:12.120
contain the overflow, protect public safety, and begin repairs.
00:21:16.720
A bypass system was constructed to pump waste around the damaged area of the pipe and reinsert
00:21:22.960
Complicating the repairs was the discovery last week of a large rock dam blocking a significant
00:21:29.280
section of the pipe about 30 feet south of the break.
00:21:33.380
Water is waiting for five large capacity pumps to arrive from.
00:21:44.120
So we have two conservative states that are going to save the liberals from their own
00:21:54.420
The billion gallons of crap that the Democrats have dumped into the water.
00:22:00.840
They then plan to build a bulkhead near the break to divert more water so workers can safely
00:22:07.000
Apparently no one had noticed the boulders until then.
00:22:09.080
Water expects this to take an extra six weeks to accomplish.
00:22:16.400
By the way, no way in the private sector it would take six weeks.
00:22:20.240
Like in the private sector, it would not take you six weeks.
00:22:23.700
And in the private sector, they would work 24-7 to get it fixed.
00:22:29.580
But fortunately, the government is in charge, so it's cheap and efficient.
00:22:35.480
Water will be dedicating resources not only to the repairs, but also to an
00:22:38.640
environmental restoration program to mitigate the damage that's already been done.
00:22:42.140
The letter detailed a $625 million investment to rehabilitate the Potomac Interceptor as
00:22:51.080
part of a 10-year, $10 billion capital improvement program.
00:22:56.620
A $10 billion capital improvement program, except for the minor detail of dumping a billion
00:23:04.040
The number is still going up, by the way, as we're speaking.
00:23:07.060
Gattis pointed out that several tunnels they built along the northeast boundary are currently
00:23:12.140
building along the Potomac have resulted in billions of gallons of combined sewage being
00:23:17.820
prevented from entering the Anacostia and Potomac Rivers through the Utilities Clean Rivers
00:23:23.820
So what he's saying is, well, yeah, we've spilled a billion gallons, but we could have spilled
00:23:30.900
I mean, look at all the crap we could have dumped in the river.
00:23:34.520
And it's only the worst sewage leak in the history of the United States of America.
00:23:45.320
If this happened in a conservative run city, it would be on the nightly news.
00:23:54.380
All the environmental groups would be out there losing their minds.
00:23:57.660
It would be on the front page of the newspapers nationally if it was a conservative place where
00:24:03.500
the largest sewer spill in history had happened.
00:24:07.980
But because it's Democrats, no one knows what's going on, and probably unless you're listening to this show.
00:24:14.560
And look, the consistency of the incompetence of Democrat leaders of government,
00:24:19.840
whether it's Keith Ellison not able to stop fraud and, in fact, being complicit in fraud
00:24:24.940
because he's profiting from it, whether it's the D.C. mayor who can't shovel snow on the sidewalk,
00:24:29.620
whether it is D.C. and Maryland who dump a billion gallons of sewage into the river and into the water,
00:24:35.380
or whether it's Gavin Newsom who, when you're facing the worst wildfires ever,
00:24:41.380
has dumped the water into the Pacific Ocean so it's not available in the fire hydrants
00:24:47.420
And, by the way, the Marxist mayor of L.A., Karen Bass, who's in Africa during the fire
00:24:53.660
and is so focused on DEI that she doesn't actually have the resources to fight the fire
00:24:58.860
and California won't let them do fire mitigation strategies.
00:25:02.480
All of this, there is a thread throughout it all, and it is incompetence and people paying the price.
00:25:10.600
More out of themselves, their businesses, their elected leaders, and the world around them.
00:25:14.700
And that's why we're thrilled to introduce the Honest Talk podcast.

00:25:39.540
Senator, let's talk about a big piece of legislation that a lot of people are very focused on this country.
00:25:46.640
A lot of voters voted on this issue specifically, and it deals with the Save America Act.
00:25:56.960
Well, the House of Representatives passed the Save America Act, passed it with only one Democrat vote.
00:26:05.400
The Save America Act requires proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote, and it requires a photo ID to vote.
00:26:10.720
It's a very simple, straightforward, common-sense bill.
00:26:15.320
I am leading the charge, pressing hard to get the Senate to take it up, to use every procedural tool we have
00:26:25.860
This week, I put out a video explaining the issues concisely, and the video went viral.
00:26:41.620
I'm an original sponsor of the Save America Act.
00:26:45.900
This is legislation that requires proof that you're an American citizen in order to register to vote,
00:26:58.960
It's an easy, common-sense step to avoid voter fraud.
00:27:02.100
The vast majority of Americans support photo ID, and yet Senate Democrats are doing everything they can to block it because they want more voter fraud.
00:27:13.440
How do we take it up and pass it in the Senate?
00:27:16.300
What I am urging my colleagues is that we should use every procedural tool we have to defeat a Democrat filibuster, and in particular, we should nuke what's called the zombie filibuster.
00:27:29.620
Under the Senate rules, everyone has a right to filibuster, to talk as long as they want.
00:27:35.860
We should require them to talk as long as they can.
00:27:39.580
Go back to an old-style talking filibuster, like Jimmy Stewart did and Mr. Smith goes to Washington, like I did in 2013 for 21 hours on the floor of the Senate.
00:27:51.740
We should use the procedural rules to force the Democrats to do a talking filibuster and force them to keep talking and talking and talking, and when they can't talk anymore, then we should pass the Save America Act.
00:28:08.180
It's what President Trump wants us to do, and it's what I hope and pray we accomplish.
00:28:12.840
Senator, you said it, I think, perfectly there, and explain a little bit more about what it would mean to nuke the zombie filibuster so that we get more context for that, so people understand, in essence, what they would be advocating for.
00:28:27.440
Well, for most of the history of the Senate, the filibuster involved talking, involved standing up and talking and talking and talking.
00:28:34.440
And in recent decades, the Senate has allowed simply whoever is filibustering to say, we're going to filibuster, you cast a procedural vote, and then you're done, and it's treated as blocked.
00:28:47.740
We can force them that there is what's called a two-speech rule in the Senate that limits every member of the Senate to two speeches on any legislative topic.
00:28:57.680
And what I've been advocating, and Mike Lee has been advocating, and Rick Scott has been advocating, and Ron Johnson has been advocating, is that we force them to give the speeches, force them to talk, and when they're done talking, then you can vote on it.
00:29:12.760
But the thing is, there's a price to that, because they can fight back, and in particular, they can do what's called suggest the absence of a quorum.
00:29:22.440
That means we have to be able to produce 50 senators on the floor.
00:29:33.340
It would entail 50 of us being willing to stand together.
00:29:36.620
It's not clear right now that we have 50 Republicans willing to do that.
00:29:40.200
I'm trying to make the case this is a fight worth fighting.
00:29:43.920
But it would be a massive and extended, this could extend days or even weeks.
00:29:50.180
But I think we should be fighting with everything we got.
00:29:54.260
It merits fighting, and so I'm trying to make that case to my colleagues.
00:29:59.260
If you nuke it the way that you described it, is it just for this one issue, and then things go back to the regular order of business, how it works normal now?
00:30:12.440
So this is different from nuking the filibuster.
00:30:17.080
So nuking the filibuster, that phrase involves breaking the Senate rules to change the Senate rules.
00:30:24.920
So what happens, and we saw, for example, the Democrats nuked the filibuster for cabinet appointees and judicial appointees.
00:30:35.480
And the way they did it, the Senate rules made it clear in the terms of the Senate rules that a nomination required 60 votes to go forward to proceed to it.
00:30:48.180
However, what happened was Harry Reid, when he was majority leader, any ruling of the chair can be challenged on the floor of the Senate, and 51 senators can overrule the ruling of the chair.
00:31:01.960
And so Harry Reid inquired of the chair, what is the rule, and was told the rule is 60 senators.
00:31:08.120
And then he said, I appeal the ruling of the chair, and the Democrats all voted party line.
00:31:12.840
And when they did that, that becomes a binding precedent.
00:31:16.840
So they broke the rules of the Senate to change the rules of the Senate.
00:31:20.520
It is still in the Senate rules that a filibuster can be used to stop legislation.
00:31:26.680
And I will say, we have used that, Republicans have used that, to stop terrible legislation from the Democrats.
00:31:34.420
So it is valuable, is the point that people need to also understand.
00:31:40.020
If the Democrats had succeeded in nuking the filibuster when Joe Biden was president and when they had the House and Senate,
00:31:46.840
they would have passed legislation, number one, striking down every photo ID law in the country
00:31:51.660
and striking down every election integrity law in the country.
00:31:53.980
Number two, making D.C. and Puerto Rico both states and electing four new Democrat senators.
00:31:59.560
Number three, making every illegal alien in America a U.S. citizen and giving them immediate voting rights,
00:32:04.840
which would have, among other things, turned Texas bright blue instantaneously.
00:32:09.780
And number four, they would have packed the U.S. Supreme Court and added four left-wing justices immediately to it.
00:32:15.840
I think that would have been, I don't want to be hyperbolic,
00:32:19.780
but I think that would have been essentially the end of the republic.
00:32:22.040
There's no way to turn that around if they do that.
00:32:24.620
And so how do you put that back in Pandora's bike?
00:32:31.700
Notice the Democrats' top policy agenda is all to rig the game and make it impossible to ever defeat Democrats again.
00:32:38.940
There's nothing they value more than staying in power.
00:32:44.100
This is not nuking the filibuster in terms of changing the Senate rules.
00:32:48.720
This is using the existing Senate rules and just enforcing them, making them stand up and speak.
00:32:54.580
And one of the advantages of it is if they're standing up and speaking for hours and hours on end,
00:32:59.720
trying to stop requiring proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote, trying to stop photo ID.
00:33:05.860
Look, both of those popular policies are incredibly popular.
00:33:11.200
70, 80 percent of Americans agree with photo ID for voting.
00:33:14.620
More than 70 percent of African Americans agree with it.
00:33:17.120
More than 70 percent of Hispanics agree with it.
00:33:20.140
More than 70 percent of Democrat voters agree with it.
00:33:26.820
And I'm urging my colleagues, let's stand and fight for voter integrity.
