Rapper Nicki Minaj just delivered a masterclass in grassroots activism that would make any conservative proud - rallying her legion of fans known as the 'Barbz' to demand their senators pass the crucial SAVE Act that would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections.
The move comes after the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act sailed through the House on Wednesday, but now faces an uphill battle in the Senate where Republicans hold just a slim three-seat majority - far short of the 60 votes needed to overcome inevitable Democrat obstruction.
Think about that for a moment, patriots. We need a RAP STAR to tell Americans to call their representatives about ensuring only citizens can vote. What does that say about how far our country has fallen under years of leftist election 'reforms'?
Minaj's call to action proves that common sense cuts across party lines and cultural boundaries. The SAVE Act simply requires documentation of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote - something that should be so obvious it wouldn't need legislation.
But Democrats are already lining up to block this basic election security measure, just like they've opposed every attempt to ensure election integrity over the past several years. They'll claim it's 'voter suppression' - the same tired playbook they use every time someone suggests maybe we should verify people are who they say they are before they help decide the leader of the free world.
Here's what every American should be asking: If Democrats aren't planning to cheat, why do they oppose proving you're eligible to vote? And if it takes Nicki Minaj to get people fired up about election integrity, what does that say about how asleep at the wheel our political class has been?
Time to flood those Senate phone lines, folks. When the Barbz are leading the charge for election integrity, you know we're living in interesting times.
