If during the Biden administration, masked feds had stormed the campus of a Christian college like Hillsdale to apprehend someone while pointing guns at students and administrators, Republicans would have filed impeachment articles immediately and taken to the streets.
ICE stormed a residence hall at Augsburg University, detained an undergrad, and aimed rifles at students and staff then admitted they had no warrant to be on campus.
This is state violence. This is terror. And this is exactly what Trump’s America unleashes on our communities.

Instead of professional journalists, the White House press corps is now a handpicked group of conspiracy theorists and nutcases with no professional training in journalism and frequently no actual media affiliation. Which leads to bizarre scenes like this.

For reasons completely unrelated to any opinions about regulatory policy, a Day 1 executive order here in the US should be ending every government agency account on X. Just delete them all, plain as that. For the same reason the US government need not have accounts on Stormfront or 4chan.

Very few provisions on the Constitution have a meaning as readily and definitively discernible from text and history as the Citizenship Clause. All credible evidence leads to the same place. If self-proclaimed originalists can’t get this one right, they discredit the entire project of originalism.

You can only remove universal birthright citizenship from the 14th Amendment by inserting words that are not present in the text, like “allegiance,” then defining them in an idiosyncratic way engineered to produce your preferred result. No one should credit this fundamentally fraudulent enterprise.

By the end of the ratification debates, everyone understood that the 14th Amendment would grant birthright citizenship to the children of immigrants.

During ratification of the 14th Amendment, senators discussed whether the Citizenship Clause would apply to the children of immigrants and resoundingly concluded that it did.
