The Truth with Lisa Boothe: SAVE Act Showdown: Voter ID Battle, 2030 Census Fight & DHS Funding Standoff

The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show

The fight over election integrity is back in the spotlight.

In this episode, Lisa sits down with Congressman Abe Hamadeh to break down the renewed push for the SAVE Act—now backed by President Trump and expanded to include voter ID requirements. With polling showing overwhelming public support for voter ID, why has the issue become so politically explosive?

We dive into:

  • What the SAVE (Save America) Act actually does

  • Why Democrats are calling it “voter suppression”

  • The 2030 Census battle and whether illegal immigrants should be counted

  • Redistricting, Electoral College shifts, and the future political map

  • Deportation efforts and the broader immigration debate

  • Midterm messaging challenges for Republicans

  • Affordability, economic polling, and perception vs. policy

  • The DHS funding fight and what a shutdown could mean for ICE, TSA, and the Coast Guard

From election security to census power plays and federal funding brinkmanship, this episode unpacks the high-stakes battles shaping the road to the midterms—and beyond.
