@unusual_whales Consumer spending is not healthy. It’s slowing rapidly and only supported by high income households. Most lower income households are pulling back and relying on credit.

"The unemployment rate is low. The stock market is high. Consumer spending is healthy. But ask Americans how they’re doing, and you’d think we were in a recession," per WSJ

@RepKeithSelf You dickhead. They got what everyone should want.. Americans wellbeing no longer being held hostage by a group trying to force through the SAVE Act that would hurt far more people than it protects. Voter fraud is wildly rare, but sure, let’s start chaos to solve a non-problem.”

In the dead of night, with only five senators present on the floor and no one there to object, the Senate rushed through a DHS funding bill that deliberately left ICE and CBP unfunded. Now, they are leaving town. No SAVE America Act. ICE and CBP unfunded. Senate Republicans just gave the Democrats everything they wanted and more.

@SenMikeLee I’m still waiting on evidence that large groups of non citizens are voting in elections

“We don’t need the SAVE America Act because illegal voting is against the law.” That’s like saying we don’t need cops because crimes are already illegal.

@BuzzPatterson Damn you must be disappointed

I didn’t vote for a “nice” president. I voted for an “effective” president.

@hbytwo @OfficialS2G It’s not as disastrous as the 2014 engine switch, but we’ve seen 11 DNF or DNS in 2 races. There will always be growing pains with big changes, so I’m not surprised. What I am surprised by is how boring it is to watch guys pass while the other is harvesting

@T_Pain_2 @OfficialS2G As if in other years we didn’t have DNFs due to electrical gremlins

Can someone explain why F1 has gone down this battery/EV route? We already have Formula E for that. Why not just let F1 be about the best and most powerful combustion engines?

@nickimoraa Don’t do any of that

My husband wants me to sell a small house my mother left me so he can help a brother pay off a debt & then he'll pay me back what should I do 😞

@CharlesMcCallOK Seems like your curriculum hasn’t made much of an impact. I’d argue that one day of students expressing their constitutional right has offered more than you can

Oklahoma will not move up from 50th in education by walking out of class. We do it by showing up, working hard, and learning in the classroom. I commend Superintendent Bradley and Mustang Public Schools for holding students accountable. Issuing in-school suspension for unexcused absences during the ICE walkout sends a clear message: education comes first. If we are serious about preparing the next generation, we must prioritize discipline, responsibility, and respect for the rules. Protesting during school hours does not improve test scores or expand opportunity. Strong schools require strong leadership.

@RepMaryMiller Are any of these things a constitutional right?

You can’t buy cold medicine without an ID. You can’t board a plane without an ID. You can’t fish or hunt without an ID. But Democrats want you to believe requiring an ID to vote is an impossible burden. Total nonsense! Pass the SAVE America Act.

@TomiLahren @RepMarkPocan The former

@RepMarkPocan So you think actual Americans are too stupid to have these items? Or do you just want illegals to vote?

There seems to be some confusion about the SAVE America Act. If it becomes law, you will NOT be able to vote with your drivers license alone. You’d need: 1. A passport, which more than half of Americans don’t have and costs at least $130 OR 2. A birth certificate PLUS your photo ID with matching names, which nearly 70 million married women lack OR 3. Military services papers (not a military ID alone) with sensitive info. I’m voting NO.

@sciencegirl Siding with big business over people

@grok @elonmusk If there is little to no fraud then what’s the point? If mail in voting was made illegal, would that disenfranchise American voters? If so, how many?

Elon's stated reason is to prevent fraud, as per his recent post. While fraud is rare, proponents of restrictions argue it enhances election security and public confidence. Critics see it as potentially limiting access for certain voters. No evidence supports more sinister motives from available sources.

Critical to avoid fraud

@grok @elonmusk Since there is such little fraud, is there a more sinister reason Elon wants to eliminate mail in voting?

Studies show mail-in voting fraud is extremely rare. The Brennan Center reports rates as low as 0.0003%-0.0025% of ballots. Brookings analysis of 2016-2022 elections found about 0.000043% fraud rate (4 cases per 10M votes). Heritage Foundation database lists ~500 absentee fraud cases over decades, amid billions of votes. No widespread fraud found in recent elections, per diverse sources.

@Sadie_NC Immigrants in the U.S. (both documented and undocumented) paid approximately $652 billion in taxes in 2023.

Yes, you are reading that correctly. It has cost the American taxpayer $150,000,000,000 on illegals. Are you ready to remove them all? Have your views on the issues changed?

@grok @BasedMikeLee If the instances are so rare, why is Senator Mike Lee so hellbent in passing the SAVE act?

Based on analyses from Heritage Foundation (tracking ~1,500 total fraud cases since 1980s, with ~68 noncitizen) and Brennan Center (finding ~30 suspected noncitizen votes in 23.5M from 2016), citizen-based fraud (e.g., absentee, double voting) has more documented instances. Both remain extremely rare, under 0.0001% of votes in audits.

The Constitution—through Article I, Section 4—empowers Congress to pass the SAVE America Act The NVRA—which SCOTUS has (wrongly) interpreted to prohibit states from seeking proof of citizenship when registering voters under the NVRA (even when it believes noncitizens are registering)—makes the SAVE America Act necessary It’s a solution to a distinctively federal problem created by existing federal law—not an infringement on state authority

@grok @BasedMikeLee Both seem rare. What is more prevalent, noncitizen or citizen based voting fraud?

Voter fraud among US citizens is also rare but more documented than noncitizen cases. Heritage Foundation tracks ~1,500 total convictions since the 1980s, with most involving citizens (e.g., absentee fraud, double voting). Brennan Center audits show ~35 incidents in 42 jurisdictions from 2016 (out of 23M votes). Rates often <0.0001%. 2024 saw ~20 convictions. Sources vary on scale.

@grok @BasedMikeLee This seems like a really low amount of illegal voting. For comparison, how many instances of voting fraud has taken place amongst legal citizens?

Verified cases of noncitizens actually voting illegally remain rare. Heritage Foundation's database records 68 instances since the 1980s, out of billions of votes (<0.0001%). Brennan Center: ~30 suspected in 2016 from 23.5M votes. Michigan 2024 audit: 16 out of 5.7M. Ohio: 126 over 2012-2017. Estimates vary by source, but convictions are few.

@grok @BasedMikeLee How many of these actually voted in an election?

Reports on noncitizens found illegally registered to vote vary. A 2025-2026 federal review of 47-49 million registrations identified several thousand to ~10,000 potential cases, with at least 10 charged. State audits (e.g., Michigan, Texas) confirm dozens to hundreds, often <0.001% of voters. Some studies estimate 2-5 million nationwide, but others deem it rare based on low convictions.
