@gabeamo SCOTUS will uphold birthright citizenship, but make no mistake: it is terrible public policy. There is a reason the overwhelming majority of all nations on earth do not respect birthright citizenship. Congress, or a constitutional amendment, should change this policy in the U.S.

If you’re born in the United States, you’re a U.S. citizen.  End of story.

Respectfully, Rep. Knight, you are running to be Rhode Island’s chief law enforcement official, yet you appear to oppose enforcing certain laws, particularly immigration laws. Could you please clarify your position on sanctuary policies and how you would handle ICE detainers?
Jason Knight@JasonKnightRI

It's great to see so many Rhode Islanders unified in rejecting this administration's outrageous actions. We need to leverage the energy for real impact by channeling the anger and motivation into concrete outlets like electoral campaigns that could change the course that our country is on. #NoKings3

Your position is absurd. Please stop insulting your constituents with this Democratic zombie rhetoric. It's never been easier to vote. Rhode Islanders deserve a representative in Congress who thinks independently, not a robot marching in lockstep and reading a partisan script.
Congressman Gabe Amo@RepGabeAmo

Trump doesn't want YOU to vote.  Joined @WomensFundRI, @commoncauseri, and @RISecState to call out the so-called SAVE America Act which makes it harder for married women, seniors & military families to vote. Proud to stand with so many Rhode Islanders fighting for our rights!

@SenWhitehouse Respectfully, Senator Whitehouse, as a former prosecutor, you know that corruption is a typically understood as a crime. By throwing the term around so casually and without evidence, as you do, you debase its meaning and appear as a petty, petulant, bitter name-calling partisan.

@kmulvane @projo This disgraced lawyer’s case proves that selecting judges based on identity and partisan politics instead of character, legal skills, and accomplishments harms the public. He was celebrated not for his legal ability, but for being openly gay and a former illegal immigrant.

@dimooch Mike, that's rhetorical sleight of hand. Shifting focus from the mural's content to an alleged audience dodges the real issue. It is a large public mural. The audience is everyone. Propriety depends on what it depicts, not how some may react. Would a Renee Good mural be ok?

@teacherinRI Yup. Really disappointing lone dissent today by Justice Jackson. When you lose Justices Kagan and Sotomayor, you really should re-think your position.

President Trump said today he will attend the oral arguments before SCOTUS tomorrow (4-1-26) on birthright citizenship. This would appear to be the first time a sitting U.S. president would attend an oral argument in the court's 235 year history. This would be historic. And good.

@JFLusi Yes, I am. I think it’s hard to argue with the mayor’s characterization of it as “divisive” given the outrage there’s been about it on this app for a few days.

There are plenty of valid criticisms of Mayor Smiley, and yet the online right-wing outrage machine seems to have settled on attacking him for his sexuality (which, apparently, was relevant to the shooting in their logic?) and for saying he thought a mural was controversial.

@SenWhitehouse Trump may lack the eloquence of some presidents, yet his readiness to engage any viewpoint on a near-daily basis puts him far above those - like you - who avoid cross-examination and appear only on sympathetic MSNBC shows like @Lawrence 's.
