The Trump Administration is renewing its claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen or tampered with by foreign governments.

Then this morning, Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin reaffirmed those claims. We hear a bit from the DHS Secretary live, and then Greg and Holly share their frustration with the continued misinformation on the 2020 election.

But alas, the President won't sign it because the voting bill – SAVE America Act – hasn't passed Congress.
