ScreenshotAllies of President Donald Trump are reportedly preparing to “take over the Senate floor” today, Tuesday, to push for action on the SAVE America Act.According to reports, Trump-aligned senators are planning procedural maneuvers that could trigger extended debate, marathon speeches, and potentially a “talking filibuster” showdown designed to put pressure squarely on both Democrats and RINOs.As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump has already threatened to withhold his signature from all future legislation until the Senate delivers proof-of-citizenship voting requirements, strict voter ID, and an end to the Democrat-favorite mail-in ballot fraud machine.On Monday, Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) teased a critical amendment to the SAVE America Act and confirmed he is working “closely” with Donald Trump ahead of Tuesday’s floor showdown.Schmitt and other Trump loyalists are done playing games with Senate Majority Leader John Thune’s weak-kneed schedule. They want a marathon session, a talking filibuster, and amendments that will make the bill even stronger, including total restrictions on mail-in voting except for the truly disabled, military, or overseas Americans.Recent reporting confirms the Senate is “bracing for a showdown” over the legislation, with extended debate and procedural warfare expected as Republicans attempt to force the issue into the spotlight.Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) dropped a bombshell just days ago, telling One America News he is ready and willing to launch a full “talking filibuster” to ram the SAVE America Act through.No more hiding behind procedural games. Democrats will have to stand on the floor and own their treasonous opposition to basic election security.Sen. Ron Johnson has even floated forcing votes specifically to “get Democrats on the record” regarding election integrity measures.According to The Hill, loyalists to President Donald Trump are planning a “Senate floor takeover” to pressure the chamber into passing the SAVE America Act.The news outlet reported.President Trump’s allies are planning to take over the Senate floor this week in a bid to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE America) Act, setting up a major test for Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.), who is under pressure from Trump and the MAGA base to extend the debate over voting reform for as long as possible.GOP senators are playing their cards close to the vest ahead of this week’s marathon debate over the SAVE America Act, which would require people registering to vote to show documented proof of citizenship.[…]Trump allies, frustrated that they aren’t able to force Democrats to stage a talking filibuster to block the bill, are pressing Thune to keep the measure on the floor as long as possible to force Democrats to defend their opposition.[…]Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), a leading proponent of the bill, says Trump wants to see Republicans go all out and is envisioning an epic floor fight, like the two-month battle that preceded the Senate’s passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.“What I want to do is try to maximize the period of time in which we debate it,” Lee said.Lee recalled that during the battle over the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Senate stayed in session for 60 days “and used an approach that is similar to what I think we ought to do here.”“They faced a 32-vote cloture deficit at the time it came over from the House in March of 64,” Lee said. “They were able to close a 32-vote cloture deficit. It took them 60 days, but they got there.”“Debating a bill that continues to get more popular even as people are trying to slow it down and stop it and obstruct it sometimes sharpens the minds of individual lawmakers and makes them more amenable in the end to negotiation,” Lee added. “That’s what we’re looking at here.”During an interview on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle, Sen. Mike Lee was pressed by host Laura Ingraham about reports of a looming “floor takeover” by Trump allies.Laura Ingraham:“Now, word leaked earlier today, Senator, that Trump allies are planning a floor takeover. What does that mean—and how will that make it more likely that this becomes law?”Sen. Mike Lee:“I have absolutely no idea what a floor takeover means… but if a floor takeover means that we’re going to make filibustering senators speak against this bill—heck yeah, I’m all for it. Let’s do it. Let’s take over the floor.”“I saw that phrase in a headline just a little while ago. I’m still confused as to what it means—but if it means enforce the talking filibuster, I’m all in.” We can beat Democrats, pass the SAVE America Act, and we don’t have to change a single Senate rule.All it takes is willpower. pic.twitter.com/4aCcSaTCWu— Mike Lee (@SenMikeLee) March 17, 2026It can be recalled that last week, Senator Mike Lee said there had been major progress in the push to pass the SAVE America Act after mounting pressure on Senate leadership to move the legislation forward.In an update to supporters, Lee, the lead sponsor of the SAVE America Act, said recent discussions with Thune and his staff have led to meaningful progress on how the bill could be debated and brought to a vote.Lee confirmed the breakthrough in a new video clip: a HYBRID form of the talking filibuster is now set to be implemented.Sen. Lee: “There’s been some uncertainty about exactly what procedure we will and will not be using. In the end, we’ve been working closely with Leader Thune and his staff, and they’ve been great to work with.What we’re coming up with is something that I think is best described as a hybrid version of the talking filibuster. But look, let’s not get mired down in nomenclature. What matters far more than what we call it is what we do with it.We’re going to bring it to the floor. We’re going to debate it for an extended period of time before filing cloture. And in my view—at least, I don’t want to speak for anyone else—this bill needs to remain on the Senate floor before we file cloture for as long as it takes to get it done.”Read more:Sen.
