Attach SAVE America Act to FISA!

Attach SAVE America Act to NDAA!

Attach SAVE America Act to budget reconciliation 3.0!

Do whatever it takes to get the SAVE America Act passed.

[🦅 Eagle Wings 🦅 @CRRJA5]

House passed the SAVE Act multiple times. The House wasn’t the problem — the Senate WAS.
Thune and the Senate Parliamentarian keep killing election integrity with voter ID and proof of citizenship. Johnson’s forcing it via reconciliation — attach it to NDAA and every must-pass bill. Fire the Parliamentarian if needed and get it done. No more delays or excuses. Secure our elections NOW.

You know who isn’t asking questions about why Elaine Chao, a private citizen, upon hearing of her husband’s alleged heart attack & subsequent hospitalization, jumped on a plane to go meet with one of the most senior members of an enemy nation, China’s Communist Party? Elected congressional politicians.

🚨 SHOCKING NEW DHS REPORT BLOWS THE LID OFF THE TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT 🚨

According to a newly released DHS Inspector General report, the Secret Service’s counter-drone system was out of service during the exact window Thomas Crooks flew a drone over the Butler rally site.

It gets worse.

The report says the system was being operated by an agent who had reportedly received only about 20 minutes of informal training and didn’t know the equipment was supposed to be tested before the event.

While the system was down, Crooks allegedly flew his drone over the rally area for nearly nine minutes, capturing views of both the stage and the building he would later use in the attack.

How did Crooks know to fly his drone at the EXACT time the system was down?

How did he know when that would be?

The system wasn’t restored until after that flight had already ended.

This wasn’t just one mistake. It was a chain of security failures that the report says included equipment problems, training deficiencies, and missed opportunities to detect the threat before shots were fired.

It may have even been a purposeful effort to allow President Trump to be assassinated.

Americans deserve clear answers.

How could so many critical failures happen at the same time during the protection of a former president?

🚨 JUST IN: After the SAVE America Act hits 50 votes, Scott Presler is demanding the GOP force a real, old-school, hours-long talking filibuster on the Senate floor.

No hiding. No procedural games. Stand there and explain it to the country.

He called out Cory Booker directly. Tell 76 percent of black Americans why you oppose voter ID. Tell 82 percent of Latino Americans. Tell 83 percent of Americans overall why you are against photo ID.

Make them say it on camera. Make them own it.

Presler’s point is simple. If you believe in your position, defend it in public. Don’t bury it in Senate procedure.

Bring it to debate. Let the country watch.

[Tony Seruga @TonySeruga]

John Brennan—the man who ran the CIA during the Obama years, who oversaw the drone strike program, who called the Hunter Biden laptop story “Russian disinformation” with zero evidence, and who spent years on MSNBC as the resident “intelligence expert” trashing Trump—is now suddenly very interested in due process and the rule of law. Funny how that works.

Here’s what’s happening:

🔍 The Two Investigations

Brennan is currently the target of two DOJ criminal probes:

1. False statements to Congress — regarding his 2023 testimony about the intelligence community’s assessment of Russian interference in the 2016 election. The man who spent years lecturing America about “Russian collusion” may have lied under oath about the very assessment that launched years of political chaos.

2. A “grand conspiracy” investigation — examining whether Obama- and Biden-era officials were part of a coordinated effort to keep Trump out of political office. This is the big one. We’re talking about the origins of Crossfire Hurricane, the FISA warrant abuses, the use of the Steele dossier after the FBI knew it was garbage. This whole apparatus was weaponized against a political opponent.

📋 The Lawsuit Itself

Brennan filed a 46-page complaint in federal court in D.C. on Wednesday, seeking a court order to force the administration to preserve all records related to these investigations. His argument? That any eventual indictment would be “unconstitutionally vindictive and selective.

The case has been assigned to Judge Jia Cobb—a Biden appointee. Draw your own conclusions about what Brennan’s legal team is hoping for there.

His complaint names:

- Acting AG Todd Blanche
- FBI Director Kash Patel
- U.S. Attorney Jason Reding Quiñones (Southern District of Florida)
- Joseph DiGenova (counselor to the acting AG, tapped to lead one of the investigations)
- Trump himself

🧩 The Personnel Angle

This is where it gets interesting. The investigation is being staffed with people Brennan and the establishment absolutely despise:

- Joseph DiGenova — long-time DC attorney who’s been calling out the deep state for years
- Kurt Olsen — who served as Trump’s director of election security and integrity
- John Yoo — yes, that John Yoo, the constitutional scholar who wrote the “torture memos” under Bush. He’s been brought in to advise on constitutional questions, motions, and appellate issues.

The establishment media framing is predictable: these are “politically motivated personnel” intent on a “partisan indictment.” But let’s be honest about what’s actually happening here—you don’t bring in a constitutional heavy-hitter like John Yoo just to harass someone. You bring him in when you’re building a case that’s going to be fought all the way up the appellate ladder.

💭 The Irony

Brennan’s lawsuit claims the administration has “adopted a policy of using criminal process and prosecution to punish the President’s perceived adversaries.”

This is the same John Brennan who:

- Ran an intelligence agency that spied on the Senate Intelligence Committee

- Lied to the American people about the CIA’s surveillance programs

- Called the Hunter Biden laptop Russian disinformation after knowing it was authentic

- Has never faced a single consequence for any of it

The DOJ’s response captured it perfectly: “It is certainly rich that John Brennan is accusing anyone of a ‘retribution campaign.’”

🔮 What This Is Really About

Brennan isn’t just trying to preserve records. He’s laying the groundwork to challenge any indictment before it even drops. The motion to preserve records is a preemptive move—his team wants to build an argument that the investigation itself is the crime, hoping to get the whole thing thrown out on selective prosecution grounds before it ever reaches a jury.

Whether that works depends heavily on whether Judge Cobb buys the argument. But the deeper story here is that the people who spent eight years insisting that no one is above the law are now discovering what it feels like to have the law actually applied to them. The immunity they enjoyed under the Obama-Biden consensus is gone, and they’re panicking.

Brennan suing to stop an investigation before charges are even filed tells you everything you need to know about how confident he is in his own innocence. ☠️

I agree with @chad_mizelle … “Congress should immediately pass a law to prohibit anyone from holding public office that swears allegiance to another nation.”

If they display the flag of another country and/or refuse the Pledge Allegiance to our Flag, then they SHOULD NOT be in political office!

Rep. Brandon Gill Introduces Legislation to Ban Taxpayer-Backed Mortgages for Illegal Aliens | Cassandra MacDonald, The Gateway Pundit

Texas Congressman Brandon Gill has introduced legislation to end the use of American taxpayer dollars to back mortgages for illegal aliens and other non-permanent residents.

The bill will finally prioritize citizens for federal housing programs designed to help Americans achieve homeownership.

Gill announced the Homeownership Eligibility Reform Act on X on Monday.

He wrote, “I just introduced a bill to restrict taxpayer-backed mortgages to U.S. citizens only.”

“The sole purpose of our housing programs is to help Americans build wealth and achieve the American Dream. Illegal immigration is making that impossible,” Gill added.

I just introduced a bill to restrict taxpayer-backed mortgages to U.S. citizens only.

The sole purpose of our housing programs is to help Americans build wealth and achieve the American Dream. Illegal immigration is making that impossible.

— Congressman Brandon Gill (@RepBrandonGill) June 29, 2026

The legislation comes shortly after the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Trump administration took steps to tighten eligibility.

Gill noted that under previous policies, about six percent of all FHA-insured mortgages went to non-citizens, including those without permanent legal status. He argued that an administrative fix alone is not enough because it could be undone on day one by the next Democrat president, which is why his bill codifies the restrictions into statute.

The legislation requires anyone receiving these taxpayer-backed mortgages to be a U.S. citizen.

It bars illegal aliens and other non-permanent residents from qualifying for FHA loans and prevents Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac from buying or guaranteeing mortgages made to noncitizens.

This builds directly on recent HUD changes that eliminated the category of non-permanent residents from FHA programs, explicitly cutting off access for illegal aliens and refocusing resources on citizens who play by the rules.

The announcement spread quickly online, with many expressing outrage that illegal aliens were ever able to access these programs in the first place.

Dear @LeaderJohnThune,

There is no greater demoralization to the base than for us to have all 3 branches of government — & for us to have majorities — & to not pass the very legislation after what we saw in the 2020 election, to make sure tragedies like that never happen again.

Thank you, @bennyjohnson, for having me on to talk about the SAVE America Act.
