There are 89 red counties with a higher homicide rate than Chicago.

There were more Americans killed in Chicago this weekend than have been killed in four weeks of war with Iran.

@Archang91369663 @TheMagaHulk What constitutes a threat? They don't even have the possibility to attack the US nevermind the intent or the plans to
English

@TheMagaHulk So with sneako logic, only if a Iran bombs America, then that makes it ok to go to war against them
So ignore threats, have to wait until they kill Americans on American soil
But Obama or Bush Iraq & Afghanistan war was justified. Not them going over there to steal oil

@JSMBurner @NewAtlantisSun Refusing to release it means only one thing. There’s not a chance in the fucking universe she scored highly.

@ScottGreenfield You are never going to believe this, but they can do that to a POW who is explicitly considered not subject thereof

Once you see how Republicans are infected by zero sum thinking you can't unsee it.
A) there are not 50-100M foreigners. That is 1/3 of the country
B) the people who need healthcare are older. Immigrants are generally younger. So you would deport labor supply but keep demand
Huff@Huff4Congress
The solution to the US doctors shortage isn’t “more foreign doctors.” It’s to deport 50-100 million foreigners. Demand problem, not supply problem.

@toJamesConnor If an American has a kid abroad on vacation they receive US citizenship instantly. This is the case for every country on earth.
English

Ask yourself: If a person born in America isn't an American, what are they?
Why would another country be required to claim them as a citizen?
What if a person was born in America to parents from two different countries?
The Trump arguments against birthright citizenship are impractical nonsense.

@Lagiacrus96 @jkimballcook Not if they were not subject to the jurisdiction of the US. Ie foriegn diplomat or invading enemy soldier
English

@Lagiacrus96 @jkimballcook It would seem you are right. You would have to change their status to not illegal but instead something like non-citizen with return orders
English

@JwayToday @jkimballcook How have they broken laws if they're not subject to their jurisdiction...?
English

@LuxyTee @BudMontang @jkimballcook So why is a diplomats son not considered subject to the jurisdiction thereof" and not granted citizenship under the 14th amendment
English

@JwayToday @BudMontang @jkimballcook Anybody born within the territory is indeed “subject to the jurisdiction of…” what are we doing here? Go change the amendment if you want it a different way.

@BudMontang @jkimballcook Where is it in the text? I see no such thing in the text of the constitution

@DrJesseMorse So then why are these hospitals at risk of being shut down? If there are less medicaid/medicare patients due to the cuts, shouldn't that mean more profit for these hospitals?
English

The reimbursement rate of Medicaid is less than the cost to provide that service to the patient.
Meaning, for every Medicaid patient that a hospital treats they lose money on that patient.
It’s like the hospital is actually paying the patient to be treated.
A hospital that is predominantly treating Medicaid patients will never be profitable.
In fact, Medicare is just about breaking even as well, traditionally speaking.
The only way hospitals truly generate revenue is through private insurance companies. Also, hospitals have to dramatically overcharge so that by the time the final bill is settled, they can make a profit to be able to cover the Medicare and Medicaid patients.
The current hospital system in the United States is unsustainable. With the upcoming significant expected financial changes, there’s going to be a lot of hospitals laying off employees and closing their doors.
NBC News@NBCNews
More than 400 hospitals across the U.S. are at high risk of closing or cutting services because of the Medicaid cuts in President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” according to an analysis from the progressive watchdog group Public Citizen. nbcnews.com/health/health-…

@WaymakerJohn @RT_com Judeo-Christian is an oxymoron. The only connection Christianity has to Judiasm is that it was a shadow of what was to come. Modern Jews have no connection to Christians. They blaspheme and deny our Lord and their own Messiah
English

@WaymakerJohn @RT_com You just wrote a lot to say yes... So anyway, the founding and core principle of Christianity is "treat others the way you want to be treated" - Judaism says treat your own better than others, they are incompatible religions.
English

@WaymakerJohn @RT_com Are Jews by law forbidden to charge other Jews interest as it prohibits in Exodus? “If you lend money to one of my people among you who is needy, do not treat it like a business deal; charge no interest
English

You're right. The quotes I shared specifically reference “Christianity” and “the religion of Jesus Christ.” I should have worded that more precisely. The Founders were overwhelmingly Protestant Christians. However, Christianity is built directly on the Hebrew Bible (the Old Testament). The biblical ethics they championed justice, liberty, covenantal self-government, rule of law come from that shared Judeo-Christian foundation. The Bible (especially Old Testament books like Deuteronomy) was by far the most cited source in Founding era political writings. That’s why “Judeo-Christian values” is the accurate modern description of the moral framework that made the republic possible.
English

@WaymakerJohn @RT_com Non of what you just said was "judeo" just Christian
English

John Adams (signer of the Declaration, 2nd President): "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." And: "The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity."
John Quincy Adams (6th President): "The Declaration of Independence laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity."
George Washington: Urged people to learn "the religion of Jesus Christ" as the path to greatness.
Benjamin Franklin: Called the system of morals and religion of Jesus "the best the world ever saw." These weren't fringe views. The Founders (overwhelmingly Protestant Christians or theistic rationalists who respected Christianity) saw biblical ethics—justice, liberty, covenantal self-government, the rule of law—as essential for a republic to function without tyranny.
So when people quote people like Thomas Jefferson, they're not being honest. His words are correct, but that's just his opinion. The majority of the founding fathers believed in Judeo-Christian values.
Jefferson and Madison were not orthodox Christians and championed church-state separation.

@neoavatara @FrenlyOfficer Logical fallacy. "Ummm actually"... Nothing you said negates what he said. Their may be more against asians. There still is against whites, and he still may have been effected
English

@FrenlyOfficer Actually, there is more prejudice against Asian American citizens than there is against White Citizens getting into medical schools.
The SCOTUS case makes this quite clear.
English

I couldn’t get into medical school because even though I had a really good MCAT of 505 They don’t want white guys like me being doctors.
Pradheep J. Shanker, M.D.@neoavatara
Same reason you didn't go to medical school and serve Americans here?
