The Spin


Right narrative

The SAVE America Act is the most critical legislation on the table right now — election integrity has to come before anything else. Democrats have been importing ineligible voters to send radical leftists to Washington, and that threat to democracy dwarfs any housing bill. Republicans need to stop stalling, kill the filibuster and get this done before Democrats beat them to it.

Left narrative

Blocking a landmark bipartisan housing bill to force through a voter suppression measure is holding Americans hostage over a problem that doesn't exist. Huge bipartisan majorities passed legislation to rein in private equity's grip on housing, and it's being killed at the last minute. Costs keep rising and the affordability crisis gets dismissed as a hoax while election-rigging takes priority.
