Trump Promises Voter ID "Whether Congress Approves Or Not"
The SAVE America Act squeaked through the House this week by five votes.
The final tally was 218-213, with Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas standing as the lone Democrat to cross party lines.
On Friday, Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) gave Republicans their 50th vote late Friday afternoon, telling Maine Wire the revised bill strikes an appropriate balance between election security and voter access.
“The law is clear that in this country only American citizens are eligible to vote in federal elections. In addition, having people provide an ID at the polls, just as they have to do before boarding an airplane, checking into a hotel, or buying an alcoholic beverage, is a simple reform that will improve the security of our federal elections and will help give people more confidence in the results,” she told Maine Wire.

Rubio Says US & Europe "Belong Together", Urges Alignment With Trump's Vision For Western Revival
Authored by Tom Ozimek via The Epoch Times,
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio told European leaders on Feb. 14 that Washington is not walking away from the transatlantic alliance—but called for a renewed partnership that aligns with President Donald Trump's push for national revival, tougher border control, and a return to industrial and military strength.
Addressing the annual Munich Security Conference, Rubio sought to reassure governments unsettled by a year of tensions over trade, defense spending, and at times critical U.S. rhetoric toward NATO.
At the same time, he made clear that Washington's commitment would be tied to what he called a broader civilizational renewal—one that calls on Europe to strengthen its own defenses and reassess policies on migration, climate, and economic globalization.
