It is indeed a very sad day when the Supreme Court can allow a President to overthrow part of the Constitution by Executive Order. The Constitution lays out very clearly the process for changing the Constitution, and it does NOT include a Presidential Executive Order. Perhaps the Supreme Court should consider reading the Constitution?
This particular Supreme Court, purposely imbalanced courtesy of Mitch McConnell, does not interpret the law, and justice; they rewrite it, and edit it ... as if they know better than the founders. They are "originalists," but only in one sense; the Republican appointees have a very original take on what the Constitution says, and what their role is ... in turning it on its head.
The Roberts Supreme Court reminds me of a pack of Komodo dragons. Each bite is poisonous, but the victim dies from multiple bites, delivered over the course of time, as the dragons patiently stalks their prey until it’s dead.
So what happens if they do away with birthright citizenship? Everyone goes back to Europe or wherever and only native Americans are left? I'm sure its the only way for the environment to rebound. I'm fifth generation, but Trumpenstein is only second generation. Melania would have to go back, probably Baron too. Certainly Musk and his dozens of offspring. What about Mrs. Vance? What if you're fifth generation black or brown. Is that safe? The no longer supreme court can no longer be trusted to defend the constitution. They're in this for themselves. I for one will laugh if Clarence gets deported. He after all, is the wrong color.
Absolutely correct. SCOTUS does exactly what they please. Any part of the Constitution they don’t like they will go right along with a criminal president and his EOs.
Great piece as far as it goes but it fails to note the plain English of Amendment XIV Section 3 "But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability" which clearly indicates that SCOTUS should have bounced the case to Congress. It also gets its logic backwards in:
"A few years ago, in Trump v. Anderson, the Supreme Court said that the Fourteenth Amendment’s prohibition on insurrectionists holding office could not be enforced unless Congress passed implementing legislation. That decision cleared the way for Donald Trump to appear on the ballot in the 2024 presidential election."
The "implementing legislation" Congress needed was, in fact, a two-thirds vote of each House and since it didn't exist SCOTUS was, by the Constitution NOT permitted to substitute their own SCOTUS idea and legislate from the bench.
They want the Indigeous gone. If one is in the military and the child is born abroad, is the child not considered an American citizen if the gqp sense of 'logic' is used? That would certainly make the US less safe to live in.

They don't want the Indigenous to vote. They've already tried to have the Indigenous removed from the country via the Gestapo. I kid you not.
