The Naked Squirrel

@Naturalbees01 @mmpadellan The constitution was certainly designed to change as seems necessary. I'm pretty sure that applies to all of it. But there's a proper method for doing it. And it's not just one commander in chief who gets to make that call. Do the process!

@Kenny_Boo22 @mmpadellan True but they can make changes to a constitutional amendment. I personally think some things will need to change over time. Not just with 14th but that just me

I don't know who needs to hear this, but IF YOU WERE BORN IN THE UNITED STATES, YOU ARE A UNITED STATES CITIZEN, PERIOD. Even Barron.

@cem_uk_ Yes we should. Likewise all of the countries of the civilized world should also be actively seeking to arrest him.

Hey Americans, I might be a know-nothing Brit, but I can't help thinking that arresting your president for raping kids might be a better idea than letting him collapse the global economy and possibly end the world. Just a suggestion.

@TalbertSwan It seems apparent that Graham, like Falwell Jr, has some pretty ugly skeletons in his closet. And Trump clearly knows or has a good idea of what they are!

Let’s call this what it is, it’s not just hypocrisy, it’s moral fraud. Franklin Graham had no problem demonizing Barack Obama, a faithful husband, scandal-free, disciplined, educated, Black man, the very embodiment of the “bootstraps” gospel white evangelicals preach about, as some kind of threat, even suggesting that he was antichrist. Yet, the same Graham bows in reverence to Donald Trump, an adjudicated rapist, convicted felon, unrepentant racist, porn star banging, pathological liar, with a trail of infidelity, exploitation, documented racism, and associations with convicted child sex traffickers, and has the caucasity to call him “raised up by God.” That’s not discernment, that’s deception, dishonesty, and disregard for the sacred text he claims to believe. The standard didn’t change, the subject did. Obama’s integrity was dismissed because he was Black. Trump’s corruption is sanctified because he is white and politically useful. Graham isn’t applying scripture, he’s weaponizing it. He ignores sin when it serves power, then quotes the Bible to justify the very wickedness it condemns. That’s not Christianity, that’s idolatry of whiteness, wrapped in religious language and draped in a flag.  This is hypocrisy at its highest level: Calling evil good when it benefits you, and calling good evil when it threatens your power. And then having the audacity to say God said it.

@RpsAgainstTrump I'm pretty sure everyone already had this figured out!

Trump: When someone's nice to me, I love that person. Even if they're bad people. I couldn't care less. I’ll fight to the end for them

@covie_93 You're kidding, right?

Is everyone in trump's orbit dumb???

@DebGrahamWarren @mmpadellan That may be true. For now. But to do that moving forward would require a constitutional amendment. He may say "going forward" but what would prevent him or another president from saying BRC no longer matters for anyone?

IF I’M CORRECT, this move of his would only apply to FUTURE children of: a) undocumented immigrants; b) students with visas c) tourists with/without visas and d) temporary workers with H 1B visas It would not strip people who have already been born here under those circumstances Correct me if I’m wrong, please…

@Naturalbees01 @mmpadellan What you're talking about is a constitutional amendment. The topic of discussion here is what the Constitution says, not what we wish or think it should say.

@mmpadellan Agree Some changes won't hurt. Like making sure that one of the parents is a greencard holder as a minimum.

@wavybaby923 @mmpadellan A lot of Americans use the Constitution to determine what the Constitution says! I hope this helps! "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside".

@mmpadellan Bro u sound dumb as hell so two illegal can sneak here have a kid and u calling them a citizen… 😂😂😂 America is so fucking done for

@goldstar002 Don't most (mainstream media) news organizations want him to remain in office? His chaos method of "governing" keeps everyone on their toes, checking the news for the latest! They were quite eager to destroy "boring" Joe for simply behaving & getting the job done! Chaos pays!!

@Bugskitche56125 @MeidasTouch I think the entire world has become painfully aware of that

@MeidasTouch Do the Iranians realize that over half of US adults (54%) read below a sixth-grade level?

BREAKING: Iran President Pezeshkian releases a lengthy public letter addressed to the American people ahead of Trump's address to the nation, defending its actions, denying it poses a threat, and blaming the U.S. for escalating conflict—while warning that continued attacks will deepen instability and resentment. He warns: "Attacking Iran’s vital infrastructure—including energy and industrial facilities—directly targets the Iranian people. Beyond constituting a war crime, such actions carry consequences that extend far beyond Iran’s borders" FULL LETTER BELOW: "To the people of the United States of America, and to all those who, amid a flood of distortions and manufactured narratives, continue to seek the truth and aspire to a better life: Iran—by this very name, character, and identity—is one of the oldest continuous civilizations in human history. Despite its historical and geographical advantages at various times, Iran has never, in its modern history, chosen the path of aggression, expansion, colonialism, or domination. Even after enduring occupation, invasion, and sustained pressure from global powers—and despite possessing military superiority over many of its neighbors—Iran has never initiated a war. Yet it has resolutely and bravely repelled those who have attacked it. The Iranian people harbor no enmity toward other nations, including the people of America, Europe, or neighboring countries. Even in the face of repeated foreign interventions and pressures throughout their proud history, Iranians have consistently drawn a clear distinction between governments and the peoples they govern. This is a deeply rooted principle in Iranian culture and collective consciousness—not a temporary political stance. For this reason, portraying Iran as a threat is neither consistent with historical reality nor with present-day observable facts. Such a perception is the product of political and economic whims of the powerful—the need to manufacture an enemy in order to justify pressure, maintain military dominance, sustain the arms industry, and control strategic markets. In such an environment, if a threat does not exist, it is invented. Within this same framework, the United States has concentrated the largest number of its forces, bases, and military capabilities around Iran—a country that, at least since the founding of the United States, has never initiated a war. Recent American aggressions launched from these very bases have demonstrated how threatening such a military presence truly is. Naturally, no country confronted with such conditions would forgo strengthening its defensive capabilities. What Iran has done—and continues to do—is a measured response grounded in legitimate self-defense, and by no means an initiation of war or aggression. Relations between Iran and the United States were not originally hostile, and early interactions between the Iranian and American people were not marred with hostility or tension. The turning point, however, was the 1953 coup d’état—an illegal American intervention aimed at preventing the nationalization of Iran’s own resources. That coup disrupted Iran’s democratic process, reinstated dictatorship, and sowed deep distrust among Iranians toward U.S. policies. This distrust deepened further with America’s support for the Shah’s regime, its backing of Saddam Hussein during the imposed war of the 1980s, the imposition of the longest and most comprehensive sanctions in modern history, and ultimately, unprovoked military aggression—twice, in the midst of negotiations—against Iran. Yet all these pressures have failed to weaken Iran. On the contrary, the country has grown stronger in many areas: literacy rates have tripled—from roughly 30% before the Islamic Revolution to over 90% today; higher education has expanded dramatically; significant advances have been achieved in modern technology; healthcare services have improved; and infrastructure has developed at a pace and scale incomparable to the past. These are measurable, observable realities that stand independent of fabricated narratives. At the same time, the destructive and inhumane impact of sanctions, war, and aggression on the lives of the resilient Iranian people must not be underestimated. The continuation of military aggression and recent bombings profoundly affect people’s lives, attitudes, and perspectives. This reflects a fundamental human truth: when war inflicts irreparable harm on lives, homes, cities, and futures, people will not remain indifferent toward those responsible. This raises a fundamental question: Exactly which of the American people’s interests are truly being served by this war? Was there any objective threat from Iran to justify such behavior? Does the massacre of innocent children, the destruction of cancer-treatment pharmaceutical facilities, or boasting about bombing a country “back to the stone ages” serve any purpose other than further damaging the United States’ global standing? Iran pursued negotiations, reached an agreement, and fulfilled all its commitments. The decision to withdraw from that agreement, escalate toward confrontation, and launch two acts of aggression in the midst of negotiations were destructive choices made by the U.S. government—choices that served the delusions of a foreign aggressor. Attacking Iran’s vital infrastructure—including energy and industrial facilities—directly targets the Iranian people. Beyond constituting a war crime, such actions carry consequences that extend far beyond Iran’s borders. They generate instability, increase human and economic costs, and perpetuate cycles of tension, planting seeds of resentment that will endure for years. This is not a demonstration of strength; it is a sign of strategic bewilderment and an inability to achieve a sustainable solution. Is it not also the case that America has entered this aggression as a proxy for Israel, influenced and manipulated by that regime? Is it not true that Israel, by manufacturing an Iranian threat, seeks to divert global attention away from its crimes toward the Palestinians? Is it not evident that Israel now aims to fight Iran to the last American soldier and the last American taxpayer dollar—shifting the burden of its delusions onto Iran, the region, and the United States itself in pursuit of illegitimate interests? Is “America First” truly among the priorities of the U.S. government today? I invite you to look beyond the machinery of misinformation—an integral part of this aggression—and instead speak with those who have visited Iran. Observe the many accomplished Iranian immigrants—educated in Iran—who now teach and conduct research at the world’s most prestigious universities, or contribute to the most advanced technology firms in the West. Do these realities align with the distortions you are being told about Iran and its people? Today, the world stands at a crossroads. Continuing along the path of confrontation is more costly and futile than ever before. The choice between confrontation and engagement is both real and consequential; its outcome will shape the future for generations to come. Throughout its millennia of proud history, Iran has outlasted many aggressors. All that remains of them are tarnished names in history, while Iran endures—resilient, dignified, and proud."

@Kneckt @Bugskitche56125 @MeidasTouch Trump especially

@Bugskitche56125 @MeidasTouch Trump included

Sounds about right, unfortunately

@maddenifico @justsomeguy2u So are you saying he stayed awake for arguments? That's impressive

Humiliated Trump storms out of catastrophic SCOTUS hearing: After less than 90 minutes of watching several of his own handpicked justices tear his arguments to shreds, the butthurt buffoon abruptly left. tinyurl.com/mr2eksu2 The pedophile psychopath's motorcade exited the Supreme Court and zipped down Independence Avenue at about 11.25 am.😂🤣👇

@donkoclock the U.S. Constitution says that “[a]ll persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

@donkoclock I can't help but notice that every news report I hear or see apparently refuses to simply quote the Constitution as written! They simply say there's disagreement, that the SC will settle and what trump believes should be the rule But that's why we have a constitution!

Let's settle this in the comments I'll start. Yes, this is law of the land. What do you think 👇👇👇

@acnewsitics His overwhelming ignorance is a shame and embarrassment for most of us

Funny how birthright citizenship wasn’t a problem when it benefited your own family. MAGA loves the Constitution right up until it protects someone they don’t like. Canada, UK, France, Germany, Ireland all allow it… but sure, only the U.S. is “stupid.”

@atrupar Chaos Agent!

Trump: "Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum and I are working on fixing the absolutely filthy Reflecting Pool between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument. This work was supposed to be done by the Biden Administration, but Sleepy Joe doesn’t know what 'CLEAN' or proper maintenance is — The President and Secretary do!"

Found this on AP just now: "Trump will be the first sitting president to attend oral arguments at the nation’s highest court." The obvious correction is to change "sitting" to "sleeping".

@BMeiselas @theliamnissan Yep. Eric has totally nailed it. We really dodged a bullet here! 😒😒😒

could you even imagine
