Trump claims military is gunning for extreme anti-voting SAVE America Act

President Donald Trump said the Pentagon wants congressional Republicans to include anti-voting restrictions from the SAVE America Act in a multibillion-dollar defense bill.

That claim — which would be historically out of character for the Department of Defense (DOD) — represents Trump’s latest attempt to use the U.S. military to carry out his domestic partisan goals, including his longstanding desire to directly take control of elections.

I am hereby calling on Republicans in Congress to IMMEDIATELY advance and pass the forthcoming $350 Billion Reconciliation Bill (Recon 3.0) — which, at the request of our Great Department of War — will include THE SAVE AMERICA ACT as well,” Trump said in a social media post Wednesday night.

“No games, no delays, and no weak compromises! Do this ASAP,” the president added.
