12:24Now PlayingAttorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian break down Trump's threat to hold all legislation hostage until Congress passes the SAVE America Act — and his admission that passing it will "guarantee the midterms." The bill would require documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote (passport or birth certificate plus photo ID) and photo ID to cast a ballot, with provisions taking effect immediately. It would also effectively end mail-in voting for most Americans. The hosts walk through why this is designed to disenfranchise, not prevent fraud: noncitizen voting is already illegal and virtually nonexistent — Georgia found 20 noncitizens out of 8.2 million registered voters. Meanwhile, 21.3 million eligible U.S. citizens lack ready proof of citizenship. The burden falls hardest on Black Americans (18% lack a driver's license), Hispanic Americans (15%), young voters, and low-income communities. The attorneys explain the mechanics of Trump's threat — if Congress is in session and he refuses to sign, bills become law after 10 days anyway — and note even some Republicans are pushing back because their own working-class voters would be affected. Schumer called it "Jim Crow 2.0." The bill faces a 60-vote filibuster threshold in the Senate that it cannot clear.
