Democrat Senator Elissa Slotkin of Michigan was recently speaking to a crowd of supporters about the SAVE America Act and she accidentally gave the game away without even seeming to realize it.
Conservatives know why Democrats oppose the act. They want people to be able to vote without IDs so that illegal immigrants can vote.
They keep trying to claim that it’s just too difficult for certain Americans to obtain an ID but that’s ridiculous. You can’t do anything in life today without a valid ID.
Slotkin’s comments take things a step even further.
In the clip below, she actually says:
“The SAVE [America] Act, which would literally allow this administration to rig our democracy so that it would be hard for any Democrat in any state to win any election.”

BREAKING: Outrage After Illegal Alien Semi-Truck Driver Who Killed 3 People in Fiery SoCal Crash Sentenced to JUST OVER FOUR YEARS by Democrat Judge
July 14, 2026
Jashanpreet Singh, the 21-year-old illegal alien semi-truck driver who killed three people on a Southern California freeway last October was sentenced to under 5 years in prison on Tuesday.
Singh previously pleaded guilty to three counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence.
Superior Court Judge Shannon Faherty (D) (she was previously appointed by Governor Newsom to fill a vacancy), sentenced Singh to 4 years and eight months in prison after he killed three people and injured several others in a multi-vehicle pile-up crash.
According to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin, Singh is an Indian illegal alien who was caught and released by border patrol agents at the El Centro, California, sector by the Biden administration in March 2022.
“I’m told ICE is placing a detainer request on Singh with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, where he is in custody on suspicion of DUI causing great bodily injury and gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated. He has not been formally charged yet,” Bill Melugin said.

Three people were killed and several others were severely injured after Singh plowed into vehicles on a freeway in Ontario, California, last October.
Eyewitnesses said the collision created a massive fireball after Singh failed to stop as traffic slowed down.
It took over 24 hours from the time of the accident for the California Highway Patrol (CHP) to release the identity of the driver who caused the fiery crash.
The Gateway Pundit reached out to CHP Officer Rodrigo Jimenez, inquiring about the identity of the truck driver who caused the deadly chain-reaction car accident on the 10 westbound freeway.
Officer Jimenez did not immediately respond to The Gateway Pundit’s email; however, KTLA reported later Wednesday that authorities identified the driver as Jashanpreet Singh.
Dashcam video obtained by KABC shows the moment Singh plowed into three vehicles before smashing into another semi-truck.
A total of 8 vehicles, including four big rig trucks, were involved in the deadly crash.
An eyewitness said Singh was driving at a high rate of speed when he slammed into the vehicles.
Singh was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs but a toxicology report later revealed he was not under the influence.
Trump Administration Launches Global Campaign Against ICC, Calls Court a Threat to U.S. Sovereignty
July 14, 2026
The Trump administration has unveiled a sweeping diplomatic campaign to isolate the International Criminal Court (ICC), arguing that the Hague-based tribunal has become a threat to American sovereignty and warning that every available diplomatic tool will be used to curb its influence.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the initiative, framing it as a defense of U.S. service members, government officials, and the constitutional principle that American citizens should be subject to American—not international—courts.
In a video message and an accompanying opinion article, Rubio argued that the ICC has moved beyond its original mission of prosecuting genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, becoming instead an institution that seeks to expand its authority over sovereign nations that never consented to its jurisdiction.
“The U.S. is launching a diplomatic campaign with a simple message—sovereign states over globalism,” Rubio said. “Those who benefit from American security must not stand idly by while those who provide that security are targeted.”
The International Criminal Court seeks to become the unaccountable arbiter of a new global law — empowered to prosecute and arrest our citizens at will and existentially threaten American sovereignty.
The United States has never ratified the Rome Statute, the treaty that created the ICC in 2002, maintaining that the court should not have jurisdiction over American citizens.
Successive administrations from both parties have opposed the ICC’s claim that it can prosecute nationals of countries that are not ICC members, arguing that such authority undermines national sovereignty and could lead to politically motivated prosecutions against American military personnel, intelligence officers, and elected officials.
The Trump administration contends that the ICC’s expanding interpretation of its authority represents a direct challenge to U.S. constitutional governance and democratic accountability.
The latest initiative also follows the ICC’s decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, a move that provoked strong condemnation from Washington and intensified concerns about the court’s growing reach.
Senior State Department officials say the administration is preparing a broad strategy to reduce the ICC’s international influence.
Measures under consideration include:
Expanded sanctions against ICC officials and affiliated entities.
Visa restrictions and travel bans.
Diplomatic efforts encouraging allies to reject ICC jurisdiction over U.S. citizens.
Countries hosting American military installations, cooperating with U.S. security efforts, or receiving U.S. defense assistance could face increased diplomatic pressure to oppose ICC actions against Americans.
“The United States will leave no diplomatic option off the table in confronting the threat the ICC poses to Americans,” the State Department said.
Rubio warned that, if unchecked, the ICC could eventually pursue legal actions against U.S. Border Patrol agents, Marines, intelligence personnel, and officials involved in counterterrorism and immigration enforcement.
According to the administration, international legal mechanisms are increasingly being used as political tools against democratic nations rather than focusing exclusively on the world’s worst atrocities.
The ICC’s Limited Enforcement Powers
The ICC currently has no active investigations targeting U.S. personnel. Although it previously examined alleged crimes connected to the war in Afghanistan, the court shifted its focus after 2021 toward alleged offenses committed by the Taliban and Afghan actors.
Unlike domestic courts, the ICC has no police force or independent enforcement mechanism. It depends entirely on member states to execute arrest warrants and enforce its decisions.
A Broader “America First” Strategy
Supporters of the administration argue that the campaign is necessary to protect American sovereignty from unelected international institutions that lack direct democratic accountability.
Critics argue that weakening the ICC could undermine international efforts to prosecute war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity, claiming that countries can avoid ICC intervention by conducting credible investigations through their own judicial systems.
For the Trump administration, the dispute represents a broader battle between national sovereignty and international institutions.
The initiative also reinforces Washington’s close alignment with Israel, which rejects ICC jurisdiction over its citizens and has condemned the court’s actions against Israeli leaders.
Attention will now turn to U.S. allies, especially European governments that strongly support the ICC, and whether they align with Washington’s efforts to limit the court’s authority over non-member states.
The confrontation marks a new chapter in the decades-long debate over the limits of international justice and the primacy of national sovereignty. As the Trump administration escalates its campaign, the clash between global judicial institutions and sovereign governments is expected to become a major issue in U.S. foreign policy.
WATCH: Trump Says US Will Continue Nightly Attacks Against Iran, Says Bridges and Power Plants Will Be Hit Next Week “Unless They Get to the Table and Negotiate”
July 14, 2026
President Trump on Tuesday said that he plans to target Iranian energy infrastructure and bridges next week if they do not make a deal with the United States.
In an interview with Fox’s Trey Yingst, which aired on Tuesday, Trump was asked if he’s still considering hitting energy targets and striking deeper inside the country after a five-hour-long mission on Monday, where US forces hit targets across Iran, including Bushehr, Chah Bahar, Jask, Konarak, Abu Musa, and Bandar Abbas.
Trump has threatened numerous times to target Iranian infrastructure, including power plants and bridges.
It can be recalled that in April, President Trump also posted a video of Iran’s B1 bridge in Karaj, the tallest bridge in the Middle East, being destroyed in an airstrike.
“The biggest bridge in Iran comes tumbling down, never to be used again — Much more to follow! IT IS TIME FOR IRAN TO MAKE A DEAL BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE, AND THERE IS NOTHING LEFT OF WHAT STILL COULD BECOME A GREAT COUNTRY! President DONALD J. TRUMP,” Trump said Truth Social following the strike.
WATCH:
“I’ll save the energy targets for last, but ultimately we’ll hit energy targets,” Trump said in the Tuesday interview.
“We’re going to hit them very hard tonight, we’re going to hit them very hard tomorrow night, we’re going to hit them very hard the night after, and then next week it gets really bad for them because next week comes the power plants. Next week comes the bridges.”
The President continued, “We’re going to knock out all their power plants, we’re going to knock out all their bridges unless they get to the table and negotiate.”
When asked if he thinks Iran is serious about making a deal to end the war, Trump said they have “no choice.”
“I think if I didn’t do the way I’m doing, they would never make a deal,” he added.
“They would have never made a deal with Obama. That deal was the worst deal. What they did sign was a worthless piece of paper. What they signed, what they signed with Obama, was a worthless piece of paper that was a road to a nuclear weapon. And what I have is a wall. There will be no nuclear weapon.”
Trump further said that preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon is “by far the most important” term of a deal.
WATCH:
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the military launched a new round of strikes on Tuesday, marking four consecutive days of attacks as the US Navy’s blockade against Iran takes effect.
JUST IN: House Passes Trump-Backed Bill to Make Daylight Savings Permanent
July 14, 2026
The House of Representatives on Tuesday passed a Trump-backed bill to make Daylight Savings permanent.
The bill, dubbed the Sunshine Protection Act, passed 308-117.
The bill will head to the Senate.
Back in May, President Trump touted the “Sunshine Act” which will make Daylight Savings permanent and remove the requirement for Americans to adjust their clocks twice a year – once in the spring and once in the fall.
“Big Vote today (48-1!) in the Energy and Commerce Committee on a Bill including The Sunshine Protection Act, which will be making Daylight Saving Time Permanent!” Trump said in May.
“This is so important in that Hundreds of Millions of Dollars are spent every year by people, Cities, and States, being forced to change their Clocks. Many of these Clocks are located in Towers, and the cost of renting, or using, Heavy Equipment to do this twice a year is prohibitive! The House will be attaching The Sunshine Protection Act to “The Highway Bill,”
“I am going to work very hard to see The Sunshine Protection Act signed into Law. It’s time that people can stop worrying about the “Clock,” not to mention all of the work and money that is spent on this ridiculous, twice yearly production. It will also be a very nice WIN for the Republican Party. Take it!” Trump said.
Not everyone supports the Sunshine Protection Act.
In 2022, the Senate unanimously approved the “Sunshine Protection Act” – however, it stalled over concerns about dark morning commutes.
The Senate-passed measure failed to advance in the House in 2022.
While many believe it will help reduce seasonal depression, others argue it isn’t safe for children.
“The National Association of Convenience Stores opposes the change, telling Congress this month “we should not have kids going to school in the dark.”” Reuters reported in 2022.
