We'll figure out what's going on here in just a moment. We've got a lot to get to on that subject. Also, there's another piece of legislation that I think might even be more important than the Save America Act. I know, I know, that's a big deal for me to say that, having pushed the Save America Act as relentlessly as we have over the past year or so.
Vince (host) 0:44
Yeah, no, there's another piece of legislation that deserves a lot of attention. and it deserves every single co-sponsor it can possibly get.

Boom. yes indeed um hey uh we've got the united states house of representatives just passed another one of those reconciliation bills yesterday and this time they added the save america act now I want to explore what that actually means with you. Chat, have you seen details on how they included the Save America Act? Has anybody really told you about that? If not, good news for you this morning. I'm going to share it with you. How it is that they were able to integrate parts of the Save America Act into this thing, because that seems important because this is not the original legislation.
Vince (host) 3:02
This is shoehorning elements of it into reconciliation. which means we're not getting everything we wanted. And in fact, I'm a little annoyed by the construction here. I'll be honest right up front with you. So here's how we begin. The United States House of Representatives yesterday passed what Politico is referring to as a hard right defense bill. It's the National Defense Authorization Act. This is being passed through reconciliation. And they said it was a tight 216 to 212 vote, hard right defense bill. And the House narrowly passed its marquee $1.15 trillion defense policy bill, largely along party lines Wednesday, amid a bitter partisan divide over President Trump's conduct of the war. Yada, yada, yada.
Vince (host) 3:58
Now, they say the vote's a big win for Trump. The final bill includes a variety of conservative provisions aimed at solidifying Republican support, including renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War, officially, blocking coverage for gender-affirming care, gender-affirming, okay, transgender mutilation surgeries, or as the president calls them, mutilization, and making it easier for troops to carry their personal firearms and military bases.
