You bet.
Well, Caroline Leavitt indicated that Iran would likely come up at least briefly at the top.
But the majority of the speech, it does seem from the balance of the reporting and from the White House's comments on it, will be about election security as they describe it.
Leavitt indicated that the president's going to declassify some kind of information.
She said Americans would be relieved.
When they hear what the president has found and what they're doing.
And she said, in answer to my question, something I thought was interesting, she said that Americans should have the most secure elections in the world and perhaps they don't.
That's the kind of thing that...
It drives folks in our business crazy, given the amount of time and energy and efforts that's been spent counting and recounting, auditing and investigating the last several election cycles, but notably 2020, which the president is obsessed with, all of which have found no indication whatsoever of any kind of widespread fraud or efforts to actually steal anything like the president described.
So that bit will be, I think, controversial in and of itself.
She also indicated—and I think this is less of a surprise—
The president will advocate for the Save America Act, which is this elections overhaul bill that he has been almost singularly focused on for months now that has passed the House in some form but has been stuck in the Senate.
And tonight we'll use the bully pulpit to push for it.
No.
I mean, is the short answer.
Look, the president's concerns that he speaks about are about foreign interference or about conspiracies about, you know, Democrats trying to steal votes or invent voters kind of widespread, as he describes it, voter fraud, about which there is no evidence.
At the local level, and that's where elections are administered at the local and state level, the kinds of complaints you hear are about things like staffing and volunteers at polling places.
Now, one of the things that the president says that's notionally accurate is that Americans do support the idea of voter I.D.,
A number of states have adopted different provisions.
His Save America Act would nationalize that, but it also goes a lot further than that.
