As Republicans push the SAVE Act and President Trump continues to cast doubt on the integrity of elections, the debate over election security and voter confidence has become more polarized than ever.

This is an excerpt from the conversation. In the full episode, they dive deeper into election issues, including President Trump’s efforts to nationalize voting, his continued fight against mail-in ballots, and whether the proposed changes will impact this year’s midterm elections. Plus: D.C. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s decision to drop the criminal case against a 67-year-old Olympian accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. Not an Insider?
