Dems Fine With Illegals Voting, Furious About IDs [WATCH]

Conservative commentator Carl Higbie and Florida Rep. Byron Donalds argued that Republicans should move quickly to pass voter ID laws, saying Democratic opposition makes clear why such measures are necessary to protect U.S. elections.

The discussion focused on Democratic resistance to voter identification requirements and broader concerns about election integrity, including the accuracy of voter rolls and documented cases of voter fraud.

Higbie opened by urging Republicans to act decisively, framing the issue as both practical and political.

“Republicans need to pass a voter ID mostly because he opposes it, but they need to pass it now. Florida Congressman Byron Donalds sir, I’d love to you. I’d love to see you guys stick one to Adam Schiff,” Higbie said, referencing California Democrat Adam Schiff.

Donalds responded by rejecting claims that voter ID laws disenfranchise voters, calling those arguments illogical and inconsistent with other identification requirements already accepted in everyday life.

“So what I mean, look, he’s been lying for a decade. Everybody knows that, but this what the Democrats are trying to say right now, that you’re Disenfranchising the American people by requiring a voter ID to go to the polls and cast your ballots is insane,” Donalds said.

He compared voter ID requirements to background checks required to purchase firearms, adding that Democrats support ID requirements in that context but oppose them for voting.

“They got no problem with background checks for you to buy a gun… but something as simple as showing your driver’s license before you get a ballot to cast in an election here in America, that’s a bridge too far,” Donalds said.

He argued that Democratic opposition stems from concerns that voter ID laws could prevent illegal aliens from voting in U.S. elections.

Higbie then cited a specific voter fraud case to illustrate his argument.

“A Colombian woman in Boston was convicted of voter fraud and other identity theft offenses also, but she voted in the 2024 election and has lived in the US under a stolen ID for more than 20 years,” Higbie said, pushing back on claims that such cases are rare or insignificant.

Donalds said even a single confirmed case is sufficient justification for safeguards and emphasized the need to clean voter rolls nationwide.

“The one example is all you need. Furthermore, these states need to clean their voting rolls,” he said, adding that individuals who cannot prove their identity should be removed from the rolls. Donalds pointed out that photo ID is required for routine activities such as banking, travel, lodging, and purchasing alcohol.

“It’s why black voters, Hispanic voters and white voters are all saying, yeah, what’s the big deal? We should do that everything to protect America’s elections,” Donalds said.
