Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) doubled down on his party’s opposition to President Donald Trump, vowing on Sunday that Democrats in the U.S. Senate would never “help” Republicans to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act.

Every illegal vote cancels an American citizen’s vote. And the left loves it. t’s just crazy how difficult it has been to get Congress to care about secure, legitimate elections in the United States. For the record, elections in America are conducive to mass fraud. Although Democrats and Establishment Republicans say stupid and fundamentally dishonest things, such as “America’s elections have never been more secure,” American citizens know they are lying. Although voters in national elections must be U.S. citizens, there’s no requirement to provide documentary proof. Just this week, the FBI arrested an illegal alien from Mauritania living in...
