@Stewmtl1 @KyleKulinski UN recognizes only 195, not sure how many hundreds you think we have.

@KyleKulinski Out of hundreads lol

At least 30 countries have birthright citizenship. He lies about everything.

@SteveManx @IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl I don’t see it as a problem per se but it does show an interpretation development where factual truth declines and parables increase.

@Badtoelzer @IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl I don't see why it would be a problem if it was, the purpose is to teach complex ideas and morals in easily consumable ways.

Deep in the Amazon, in open nests, the chicks of the cinereous mourner wait for their parents.. These chicks have an astonishing defence from nest predators The moment they are alone, they look & move like toxic caterpillars found in the same trees. 1/🧵

@SteveManx @IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl I did go through a phase where eventually nearly the entire Old Testament was a parable in order to reconcile it to the modern scientific world.

@SteveManx @IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl I don’t normally engage in this topic because I generally believe people’s beliefs seek out their happy mental state. So if you believe a tragic death is offset by entering heaven you’ll be a believer. If you think that God not halting that tragedy shows disregard, then u won’t.

@grantmcauley He’s also hugely underplaying his statcast.

#Braves catcher Drake Baldwin has graduated from Rookie of the Year to Sophomore Standout. His first 6 games: .318 (7-for-22) 1 2B, 3 HR, 7 RBI, 6 R, 4 BB, 2 K .423 OBP - .773 SLG - 1.196 OPS

@SteveManx @IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl Might need to brush up on your definitions.

@Badtoelzer @IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl Because that's a parable.

@IfollowtheOne @sciencegirl Explain to me how Noah pre mass communication found all the animals and then watched their offspring thrive off inbreeding with siblings.

@sciencegirl And still people believe in the evolution theory instead of a Creator. How on earth could a species look to another form of species and change its own dna to look exactly like that other species. No only God thought that is funny to make. Dear God thank You for all the beauty.

Strait Talk from Trump?!?!

@t3nsor @ReichlinMelnick @WalshFreedom One interesting thought I had listening to this I think it’s obvious any illegal here is subject to our laws. You can’t work on a farm for cash and not then legally not file a tax return. The IRS has made that absolutely clear.

@Badtoelzer @ReichlinMelnick @WalshFreedom I regret not shelling out the thousands of $ for a lawyer to file a brief. I figured everything I wanted to say would be said by other people anyway. But I don't think any of the briefs delved into the concept of combatant immunity, for example.

Of course Trump is bracing for defeat. This question has been answered for over a century. We had birthright citizenship in the US since before it existed. Dred Scott was a rejection of that basic rule, and led to a Civil War and us writing it directly into the Constitution.

@ScottAllen_1776 @TheFungi669 Why has he run in a US Presidential primary then?

No! Once Marco’s parents became legal U.S. citizens Marco automatically became an American citizen regardless of where he was born. Anyone born on U.S. soil to a parent or parents of illegal aliens are not automatically U.S. citizens. Four words decide everything: Subject to the jurisdiction. Illegal aliens owe no allegiance to the United States. They fall outside the jurisdiction. History confirms it. Congress had to pass a separate statute to grant birthright citizenship to American Indians. They weren't subject to jurisdiction either. So ask the simple question. If American Indians didn't get automatic birthright citizenship, how do the children of illegal aliens? They don't.

Marco Rubio: “Just because you’re born on U.S. soil doesn’t make you a citizen. Your parents must be U.S. citizens.” Grok: “Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971. His parents became citizens in 1975. Rubio is a beneficiary of birthright citizenship.”

@Alfredo32419283 @factpostnews Or is it amazing after putting Biden under the telescope you are burying your head in the sand? Dem’s complicit in Biden cover up gaslit America no doubt. Are you doing the same now?

@factpostnews It's hilarious, after 4 years of pretending not to notice the LITERAL MOST OBVIOUS CASE OF DEMENTIA IN WORLD HISTORY, how the progressive left clings to ANY little potential health issue that they can with Trump. It's truly amusing!

New photo reveals Trump's ankle is once again swollen.

Show me my $2,000 Doge check and the $2 Trillion in savings they found first. And if you care about healthcare fraud, get a load of this: propublica.org/article/joseph…

@ghskiff @propublica @robcarpenter81 I don’t know why Congress voted like that but power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Vote the Bums out.

@ghskiff @propublica @robcarpenter81 DOJ should normally not release investigative files since it could negatively impact a criminal prosecution. Only after Bondi insanely declared there were no other criminals in the files could they be released without impacting future prosecutions. Horrible performance there. 2

New: Trump pardoned nursing home owner Joseph Schwartz just 3 months into his sentence for a $39 million fraud scheme. Meanwhile, families who won multimillion-dollar wrongful death suits against Schwartz haven’t collected a cent. propub.li/4di7xXs

@ghskiff @propublica @robcarpenter81 Why not care to simply hold those in power now to be accountable? Why give them excuses to be equally bad or worse?

@propublica @robcarpenter81 Now show us all of the criminals Biden pardoned but we know you won’t. Wish we didn’t have to choose between Trump and Harris

@t3nsor @ReichlinMelnick @WalshFreedom I knew a lovely family that had one child who was an American citizen. The mother served as a foreign defense attaché and thus interestingly the diplomatic exception did not apply. Hard to imagine her parent’s embassy would not intervene on her behalf if necessary.

@Badtoelzer @ReichlinMelnick @WalshFreedom Trumbull took the point of view that there are certain people the US has "no right" to make citizens. He mentioned children of diplomats as an example. This neatly explains why the exceptions are what they are. Children of hostile combatants fall into this category as well.

@t3nsor @ReichlinMelnick @WalshFreedom Getting the right respondents seems important - I’m perplexed they made such a weak argument on the tourist visa loophole.

@Badtoelzer @ReichlinMelnick @WalshFreedom ... their assertion that the conventional interpretation doesn't make sense is an obtuse misunderstanding of what the framers quite clearly explained about complete jurisdiction; although I think that's partially the fault of the respondents for not explaining it well enough.

@ReichlinMelnick I was thinking more that the the arguments against birth tourism hold up well as the challengers’ appear weak to non existent. Visa’s can be granted for 10 years, how is that a fix? ref:scotusblog/2026/03/the-key-arguments-in-the-birthright-citizenship-case

When you’re not constrained by fidelity to history you can cobble together good-sounding quotes that are out of their historical context and make your argument seem stronger than it is. E.g., DOJ’s briefs cite the views of the white supremacist lawyer who won Plessy v. Ferguson.
