  • The House passed the SAVE America Act, requiring proof of citizenship and photo ID for voting.

A Witcher's Perspective on Political Maneuvering

Right, let's get this straight. Another day, another mess brewing in the human world. This time, it's the SAVE America Act. Sounds like a potion to ward off boredom, but alas, it's just politicians bickering over who gets to vote. Always a delightful sight, like watching drowners argue over a corpse. The House, bless their pointy little heads, has passed it. Now it heads to the Senate, where it'll probably get stuck in the mud like a cart with a broken wheel. "Hmm, politics..." as I often say.

The Nitty-Gritty of the SAVE America Act

So, what's this act about? Proof of citizenship and photo ID to vote. Republicans reckon it'll stop non-citizens from voting. Democrats? They say it'll stop millions of *citizens* from voting. Makes you wonder if anyone actually trusts anyone else these days. It reminds me of when mages start accusing each other of using forbidden magic – everyone's got something to hide.

Echoes of Temeria A History Lesson

This isn't the first time they've tried this song and dance. Last year, they tried a similar act. It passed the House but then vanished like a noonwraith at sunrise. And now, this new iteration. One can't help but draw parallels to the endless political squabbles in Temeria. Remember Foltest and his illegitimate daughter? Always a power play, always someone trying to grab a bigger slice of the pie.

The Lone Wolf and Shifting Alliances

Ah, the lone Democrat, Rep. Henry Cuellar, siding with the Republicans. Reminds me of Lambert – always doing the unexpected. And then there's Rep. Jared Golden, who supported an earlier version but now says this one's "not even close to the same." Politicians, eh? Change their minds faster than a werewolf under a full moon.

Senate Showdown and Future Uncertainties

Now, the Senate. It needs 60 votes to pass, and some are already saying it's doomed. Sen. John Thune, bless his heart, says there's no chance of changing the filibuster rule. So, the act's chances are slimmer than a witcher's coin purse after a long contract. Still, never underestimate the stubbornness of politicians. They're like leshens – you think you've killed them, and then they pop up again, angrier than ever.

The President's Wish and the Blame Game

And then there's President Trump, with his "unfounded claims" about noncitizen voters. It is already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections, and documented cases are rare. He wants elections turned over to him, according to Rep. Joe Morelle. Like a sorceress trying to control a djinn – never ends well. Ultimately, it seems like everyone's just blaming everyone else, as usual. Makes you almost miss fighting monsters. Almost. "Evil is evil, Stregobor," as I always say. "Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same."
