Something Changed In Thune After Graham's Passing — The SAVE Act Is Suddenly Moving

Something changed in John Thune after Lindsey Graham's sudden death, and the SAVE America Act, the election integrity bill that was stalled in the Senate for a full year, is suddenly moving. In this video, we break down the phone call, the pressure campaign, and the exact words from the Senate Majority Leader that changed everything.

On the night of July 11, Senator Lindsey Graham called President Trump just hours after returning from his tenth trip to Ukraine and told him they were all set for the SAVE America Act. By 10:23 that night, Graham was gone at age 71, with the medical examiner's preliminary finding pointing to an aortic dissection caused by cardiovascular disease. President Trump revealed the details of that final conversation on Meet the Press the next morning, calling the loss a big blow to the SAVE America Act and promising to get it done.

What happened next stunned Washington. As chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, Graham held the keys to reconciliation, the budget process that allows a bill to pass with 51 votes instead of 60. After his death, the House broke its weeks long stalemate with a 215 to 211 vote, using a maneuver known as MIRVing to attach the SAVE America Act to must pass national security funding. Anna Paulina Luna, Tim Burchett, and the conservative holdouts who froze the House floor in June finally got the commitment they demanded, and Speaker Mike Johnson promised more of the same.
