I am hearing from GOP leadership that Voter I.D. + Proof of Citizenship cannot be added to the NDAA because it is not “germane” yet there are MANY bills they have passed this congress that one could argue have a ton of “non-germane” items in them.
So the question is, why is GOP leadership in the House so opposed to adding Voter I.D. +
Proof of Citizenship into the NDAA?

Some arsonist tried to start an intentional fire in Colorado.
He is now being looked at for other fires.
Good job on the citizen who called the police.
We're up to 29 Gavelers ⚖️
29 different Republican Senators
taking turns presiding over Pro Forma Sessions to sabotage our sitting president.
Neither party has EVER used this tactic against their own POTUS
Until now.
Thune controls the schedule and he controls Senator Ashley Moody from Florida.
Thunes approach to blocking and controlling is seconds-long sessions where a single Senator gavels the chamber to order and immediately adjourns with no legislative business conducted—during the current recess window, rather than agreeing to a longer formal adjournment that would enable recess appointments.
Ashley Moody bent the knee and as such, sorely disappointed Floridians and Americans who want to see the Senate do actual work for the American people.
Instead what we see is our Florida Senator has gone rogue. She chose John Thune and the RINO's camp over what Floridians and Americans want.
August is the time for us to get her voted out and replaced with someone who is Florida and America First.
🚨Betrayer Alert: Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) has been gaveling Pro Forma Sessions While Conservatives Expect Action.
Senator Bill Hagerty has been presiding over (or participating in) routine pro forma sessions in the Senate.
This is enabling Senate Majority Leader John Thune to block meaningful work, potentially frustrating recess appointments, or stalling aggressive conservative priorities under the current administration dynamics.
As of now, Bill Hagerty faces no declared Republican primary challengers, he is running unopposed on the GOP side after the filing deadline.
If you’re a Tennessee conservative frustrated with this, now is the time to:
Support or recruit strong primary challengers (filing windows have closed for 2026, but write-ins or future cycles matter).
Hold him accountable via calls, town halls, and public pressure.
Get involved in the general election dynamics or push for more fighter-oriented representation.
Hagerty has a generally solid conservative voting record (e.g., high Heritage Action scores in past sessions), but actions like facilitating pro forma sessions fuel perceptions of RINO behavior or insufficient aggression in the Senate.
Tennessee voters: This is your seat.
Demand better than procedural formalities, demand warriors.
Primary season is here (August 6). Make your voice heard.
Last week, a Muslim woman entered our family ranch store and asked for Halal beef. When I told her we do not offer it, she demanded to know why not. As she turned to leave, I extended my hand in a simple gesture of goodwill—only for her to refuse it outright. The same person who expects us to accommodate her faith’s ritualistic slaughter of our livestock—complete with specific blessings and throat-cutting methods—could not bring herself to touch a Christian man’s hand. It was a stark reminder that some demands for tolerance flow only in one direction: ours.
Third time's the charm @SenAshleyMoody?
Three consecutive pro forma- sessioned gavels, including today.
@LeaderJohnThune has chewed you up and spit you out, and you dont realize it.
Congratulations! You have secured your defeat for re-election.
Again, @POTUS , please assert your power under our Constitution to convene the Senate.
🇺🇸
Dear Mr. President
TIME TO GET LOUD FOLKS
Join me calling on @realDonaldTrump to use the powers vested in him under (Art-II ~ Sec,3) to call the Senate back into session, and keep them in session until they pass the Save America Act
We need the Boss to 👇 take the gloves off
The Supreme Court ballot decision doesn't say late ballots are required; it says current federal law doesn't ban them. Congress can change that tomorrow. Voter ID, proof of citizenship, Election Day deadlines: all within Congress's power over federal elections.
My amendment for voter ID + Proof of Citizenship has been officially filed to be considered for an amendment to the NDAA. It is amendment 1388. It is NOT possible to add the SAVE America Act to reconciliation. It would fail miserably with the Byrd Rule.
House leadership has direct decision-making authority over whether or not this will be added to the NDAA. The idea that this can’t be done is false, and if there is going to be a request for my vote on the rule, they need to allow this to come to the floor.
ALITO'S DISSENT ON MAIL-IN BALLOTS IS A MASTERPIECE AND NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT IT
While the mainstream media is busy celebrating today's ruling, four justices stood in the breach and said what every honest American already knows. Alito's dissent in Watson v. RNC is not just a legal argument. It is a warning shot about where this country is headed if we do not get serious about election integrity.
Read these words carefully.
Alito wrote that when thousands of absentee ballots flow in after Election Day and potentially flip the result of an election, charges of a rigged election explode. That is a sitting Supreme Court Justice, in an official dissent, validating what the corporate media has spent four years calling a conspiracy theory.
He went further.
Alito cited research showing that drawn-out ballot counting produces a large and significant decrease in Americans' trust in elections. Not a talking point. Not a campaign slogan. Peer reviewed research cited in a Supreme Court dissent. The problem is real, it is documented, and five justices just decided to ignore it.
On fraud, Alito was surgical.
He pointed out that as far back as 2005, a commission chaired by Jimmy Carter and James Baker concluded that absentee voting was the largest source of potential voter fraud in American elections. Jimmy Carter. The left canonizes that man. His own commission said mail-in ballots are the biggest fraud vulnerability we have. And today's majority just threw the door open wider.
Then Alito did something remarkable.
He painted a picture of exactly what this ruling could produce. A close presidential election. One state still counting. The leading candidate watching his margin shrink day after day as new batches of mail-in ballots arrive. The lead flipping with days to spare before electors must cast their votes. He was not writing fiction. He was describing something we have already watched happen in slow motion in race after race since 2020.
He also torched the majority's logic directly.
Barrett and Roberts argued that the word election in federal law only governs when voters CAST their ballots, not when officials RECEIVE them. Alito called this what it is. The electorate's choice is not complete, he argued, until all the ballots have been collected and the decision is fixed. A ballot sitting in a mail truck three days after Election Day is not a completed act of voting. It is an open question. And open questions are where fraud lives.
He also raised something nobody else is talking about.
What is the limiting principle here? If states can accept ballots five days late, can they accept them twenty-one days late? Washington State already does. Can a state eliminate receipt deadlines entirely? Alito asked that question directly and the majority gave no answer. They opened a door and refused to say how far it swings.
Thomas and Gorsuch stood with Alito completely. Kavanaugh joined most of it.
And Barrett, the justice we were told would hold the line, wrote the opinion that Alito was dissenting against.
History will not be kind to this decision. But it may be very kind to this dissent. The greatest dissents in Supreme Court history are often the ones that turn out to be right. Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch put it on the record today.
The question is what we do with it.
After the tremendously terrible SCOTUS ruling on late ballots, Justice Alito WARNS that there are now “open opportunities” for fraud.
This is why we need the SAVE America Act.
The Supreme Court’s astonishing 5–4 decision further eviscerates the very notion of Election Day and threatens to make a mess for our nation’s already stressed federal elections. The decision is contrary to the plain words of federal law establishing Election Day, invites significant voter fraud, and will further undermine voter confidence in elections that could now regularly take months to resolve.
Judicial Watch took the lead in trying to uphold Election Day at the Supreme Court. We remain committed to upholding the law and protecting voters from election practices that encourage fraud and chaos.
As Justice Alito’s dissent declares:
“Today’s decision is inconsistent with the terms of the election-day statutes, contemporary election-law principles, two centuries of historical practice, and the case law on the question presented. It opens up and fails to resolve a host of questions for state election officials and courts. And it creates a serious risk of further undermining public confidence in our elections and our system of self-government.”
Today’s decision ignores the plain meaning of Election Day and threatens to cause chaos in congressional and presidential elections. Congress can and should step in to correct the Supreme Court’s errant decision and make clear that, at the very least, all ballots MUST be received by Election Day in order to be counted.
🇺🇸 THE SUPREME COURT RULED AGAINST US TODAY. CONGRESS CAN STILL FIX THIS!
Before you throw your phone across the room, hear me out.
Yes, Barrett and Roberts sided with the liberals today. Yes, it is a gut punch. Yes, Alito's dissent is going to age like fine wine while this majority opinion ages like milk.
We covered all of that.
But this fight is not over. Not even close.
Here is what the majority opinion actually did, whether they intended to or not. They handed us a roadmap.
The Court ruled the way they did because the current federal election statutes are silent on when mail-in ballots must be RECEIVED. They only govern when elections must be HELD. The majority found that gap in the law and drove straight through it.
Congress can close that gap tomorrow!
This is not wishful thinking. This is constitutional bedrock. Article One of the Constitution gives Congress explicit authority to override state election rules for federal elections. They have done it before. In 1845 fraud was rampant because states held elections on different days and voters were crossing state lines casting multiple ballots. Congress stepped in and mandated a single uniform Election Day and that was the end of it.
One law fixed it then. One law can fix it now.
All Congress needs to do is pass legislation stating clearly that mail-in ballots in federal elections must be RECEIVED by Election Day, not merely postmarked. That is it. That closes the loophole the Court just created. The majority opinion even pointed toward this solution directly, essentially telling us that if the American people want this rule, go get it through your elected representatives.
So that is exactly what we are going to do.
This is where your energy belongs right now. Not in despair. Not in rage. In action. The midterms are coming and every single House seat matters. Every Senate seat matters. We have already primaried out a number of RINOs this cycle and the new Congress is going to look different from this one.
A bigger majority changes everything.
With enough seats we pass the legislation. We close the loophole. We establish once and for all that Election Day means what every honest American knows it means. The day you vote is the day your ballot had better be in the hands of election officials. Full stop.
The left thinks today's ruling ends this fight. It does not end anything. It clarifies the battlefield and points us directly at the next objective.
Roberts and Barrett may have failed us today. But the Founders did not. They built a system with a remedy for exactly this kind of moment. That remedy is Congress and Congress answers to us.
Stay in the fight. The next move is ours.
Justice Alito's dissent lays it out plain as day.
This opinion opens the door to more fraud and it is not difficult to understand why.
Outside of military ballots, ballots that show up after election day should not be counted. They are highly suspect. https://t.co/dIVNJyxvGc
