Signorile Live: Senator Raphael Warnock on Trump’s threat to “nationalize” elections

The Georgia senator slammed the Fulton County raid, called Trump a “desperate authoritarian,” and said keeping ICE from election sites is a priority as Senate Democrats negotiate funding for DHS.

Senator Raphael Warnock pulls no punched in our interview, taking on Trump, JD Vance and the authoritarian regime. “They’re people who know they’re losing,” he said.

Discussing negotiations in the Senate on funding the Department of Homeland Security, Warnock said, “certainly the presence of ICE around sensitive locations, to including polling stations, churches, schools…those are things I will have my eyes on as we talk about whether or not there is a path to fund the Department of Homeland Security under Donald Trump and JD Vance.”

And on House Speaker Mike Johnson pushing back on the demand for ICE agents not to wear masks, Warnock called Johnson, “pathetic.”

“Here is a man who is the Speaker of the House, saying without evidence that there are questions about…voting my mail,” Warnock said, calling Johnson, “deeply irresponsible.”
