Oh Crap! GOP Threatens Dems With NEW Jan. 6 RIOT If They STOP Bill Making It Harder to Vot

'HELL to PAY': Tuberville Threatens Dems With ANOTHER Jan. 6 RIOT

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) threatened that there would be another Jan. 6 riot if Democrats did not pass a Republican-backed bill that would make it harder to vote.


'Disruptive and Difficult': Palm Beach Asks For Help Paying For Trump Security

MSNRAW 18 SEP 2024





At a Wednesday news conference, Tuberville urged Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) to schedule a vote on the "Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act" or "SAVE Act."

The bill would require a birth certificate or passport in order to vote, even though it is already unlawful for noncitizens to participate in federal elections.


"The Democrats know better than this, but they want power so bad that they're going to try to tear down our election system," Tuberville said. "And I'm going to tell you this. My first day was January the 6th in 2021."

"And what's going to happen if we do not show the American people that the elections are going to be fair and they're going to be satisfied with the outcome, no matter whether Republicans win or Democrats win, you are going to have hell to pay in this country," he continued. "It's coming."

"And I'm not so sure that's not what the Democrats want."


Donald Trump has urged Republicans to shut down the government if the SAVE Act was not passed before the November presidential election.

'Disruptive and Difficult': Palm Beach Asks For Help Paying For Trump Security...






One of the nations richest enclaves is seeking government assistance to help protect its most famous resident as his security costs have shot up to $93,000 a day.



Palm Beach County has asked the federal government to help cover security for Donald Trump, who lives at the private Mar-a-Lago resort and was apparently targeted for a second assassination attempt Sunday at a golf course nearby, reported Bloomberg.

Weve had to heighten security ever since the campaign started with the former president, who is our resident here, said Palm Beach County mayor Maria Sachs. Yes, its disruptive and difficult, but its the price we pay to live in paradise.

The county has an $8 billion annual budget, but Sachs and county sheriff Ric Bradshaw sent a letter last week to congressional representatives asking for additional money to protect the Republican nominee, saying that cost $2.8 million of estimated overtime for a 30-day period for officers involved with his security.

The letter also listed an estimated $42,720 cost to the local fire rescue department during motorcades and other times, as well as $3,600 a day spent by the city of Palm Beach.

The U.S. Secret Service and other federal agencies often mobilize personnel from local law enforcement and other sources when Trump and others under their protection are on the move, and those measures could be seen Monday in Palm Beach, where officers blocked off key streets around Mar-a-Lago.

The blockades often frustrate many residents, who have expressed concerns that a second Trump presidency could lead to additional restrictions when he is visiting, and the mayor even floated the possibility of closing Mar-a-Lago at a recent town council meeting.
