I agree with everyone who is especially happy for the

birthright Citizenship victory.
It’s the best news for the 250th anniversary.
Of course it hurts that it ever reached here but the effing white supremacists and fascists lost just in time for July 4.

Fuck them and have a drink for the victory.
He LOST.
For the record my oldest sister was born in a New York hospital. Mum went into labour on a ship in New York Harbor on their way back to the Caribbean from England.
We won - celebrate and eff them.
That he and his goons are so pissed makes me happy.

Will a new SCOTUS rule in a couple of years against BRC? IMHO it should have been 9 to 0.

And the lower courts agreed.

If the SCOTUS minority and Mike Johnson don’t like what the Constitution says, let them start the amendment process.

I want to see him stroke out live like he almost did a few days ago when he basically ordered SCOTUS to a 9-0 vote against the 14th.
He had veins popping out of his squirmy little pointed head then. I have yet to be rewarded. The fact that it was close shows how important destroying this court is. Very similar boat here as your family, no pun intended!

Apparently, he thinks birthright citizenship demeans the citizenship of children born to US citizens. Thomas and Alito’s so called conservatism is way too extreme for a Supreme Court justice. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh aren’t much better. At least Barrett and Roberts don’t blindly follow the previous four and Brown, Sotomayor, and Kagan give us all hope.

Peace ☮️
