The Jenny Beth Show

Trump's Beijing Trip, SCOTUS 6-3, SAVE America Act Shelved | Mitchell, Reynolds, Manning

Episode Summary

The U.S. Senate has shelved the SAVE America Act, the election integrity bill 83% of Americans support, and on today's Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin calls out Senate leadership and reveals the new strategy to force the bill through. Cleta Mitchell, founder of the Election Integrity Network and one of America's most respected election law attorneys, walks listeners through what really happened on the Senate floor, why Senator John Thune refused a real talking filibuster, and how grassroots conservatives can now pressure the House to attach the SAVE America Act to must-pass legislation. Then Jeff Reynolds, senior editor at Restoration News, previews President Trump's three-day Beijing visit, the first U.S. presidential trip to China in nearly nine years. Jeff breaks down the shipping-lane leverage Trump is wielding against Xi Jinping, what's really at stake on Taiwan and Iranian oil, and why China's promises cannot be trusted. Plus Victoria Manning of Restoration News unpacks the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, the landmark decision striking down race-based congressional districts and what it means for the 2026 midterms. Jenny Beth closes with two urgent calls to action and a heartfelt tribute to legendary Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox. Subscribe, share, and call 202-224-3121 today.
