Well put. This is a solution in search of a nonexistent problem, all to make it far harder for millions to vote. That's vote suppression, folks.

Screenshot of an X.com post by Melanie D’Arrigo (@Darrigo) stating that undocumented immigrants can’t vote and that voter fraud is extremely rare, arguing Trump and Republicans are using a nonexistent problem as an excuse to manipulate future elections. Below is an embedded Aaron Rupar post quoting an NBC question about whether Trump is suggesting the federal government count votes, and a response from Leavitt saying Republicans and Democrats should pass the SAVE America Act, which would require voter ID and proof of citizenship. At the bottom is a TV still of Leavitt speaking at a White House press briefing with reporters visible nearby.

@georgetakei Still don’t know why people are on the streets with ICE out and not Trump out. You will never get elections again until this guy is removed by force. He will never leave by his feet, it is so obvious. He is not the first of its kind.

@georgetakei The Save Act will disenfranchise millions of women. Me included. I went to get my real ID and they told me because my name was changed, I had to bring my birth certificate and my marriage certificate. I’ve had a valid drivers license in this state for 30 years. I have a federal ID so I declined. This will happen again with my voter registration. #uspol #vote

@georgetakei I sense Leavitt is actually an AI creation because she talks so much crap.

@georgetakei funny how the dodgy right wing party made exactly the same dodgy arguments to pass the same dodgy kind of laws over here in the UK for the same dodgy motives...

And in the end - didn't help them, they still lost. Ha!

@georgetakei The luxury of living in a country in which you are automatically registered as voter, regardless if you want to cast your vote or not... or decide to vote late on election day.

@georgetakei
If you want to save America just get rid of the criminals running the US now. Act on that.
