Tom Homan Does Not Defend Kristi Noem When Pressed On Her Comments About Wanting The Right People' to Elect The Right Leaders'

So, what does she mean when she says electing the right leaders? Tapper asked on Sunday's edition of CNN's State of the Union. That's not really immigration enforcement or DHS responsibility. I don't know, that'd be a question for the secretary, Homan answered. If I had to guess, probably, that, you know, only those legally eligible to vote would vote, but I have not talked to the secretary about those statements. That'd be something she'd have to answer.

House passes Save America Act, Trump-backed bill to impose new voting rules

The House on Wednesday passed the Save America Act, which would dramatically change voting regulations by requiring proof of citizenship at voter registration and significantly curtail mail-in voting. The legislation, which passed 218 to 213, faces an uphill battle in the Senate, close observers say. I'm skeptical that the Senate will vote on this bill, because this bill goes farther than the bill they've already sent to the Senate, [which] it hasn't taken up, said Shenna Bellows, Maine's secretary of state and a Democratic candidate for governor.
