Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.”

@JBlunt1018 @richardrahl1086 Apparently people are only sharp if they agree with you. That's hilarious and stupid, but c'mon man, you're sharper than that.

Frank, respectfully, you’re much sharper than this based on our past exchanges, which is why this take is surprising. If Congress can redefine who is “subject to jurisdiction,” then birthright citizenship stops being a constitutional right and becomes a political variable that can change every election cycle. That’s exactly what the 14th Amendment was designed to prevent. Congress controls entry and naturalization, not who is a citizen at birth. Amendments are the rules of the game. Laws are meant to play within those rules.

Go with me for a second on the birthright citizenship scenario — simple version. You’re saying citizenship should depend on whether someone is here “legally.” Okay. Who defines “legal”? Congress. And Congress can change that definition anytime. Now fast forward 25–30 years. A different political wave takes over, not your side. Let’s say a very aggressive left-wing government. They decide certain groups are a “problem” or “historically harmful” or “overrepresented.” So they pass a law redefining “legal presence.” Not by geography. Not by birth. By criteria like: — ideology — ancestry — demographic quotas — “equity” frameworks Sounds crazy but we’ve literally done versions of this before, go see the Chinese Exclusion Act. Now under YOUR framework: Only people who meet this new definition of “legal” are considered fully “subject to jurisdiction.” Everyone else are not legal therefore not covered so their kids don’t get citizenship. So you now have: A child born in the U.S. Grew up here Never left Knows no other country But not a citizen… because Congress changed a definition of what legal means. Nothing about the child changed. Only politics did. That’s the entire problem with your argument. You’re turning citizenship from a constitutional guarantee into a policy lever. And policy levers get pulled. The 14th Amendment was written specifically to stop that, to make citizenship automatic at birth so it couldn’t be manipulated by whoever happens to be in power. Because once you let Congress define “who counts,” you’re not protecting citizenship anymore even for yourself.

Birthright citizenship isn’t complicated; the fringe is trying to make it sound complicated. This isn’t hard. 1. If the concern is illegal entry, enforce the border. We already spend billions on CBP and ICE. That’s an execution issue, not a constitutional one. 2. If the concern is birth tourism fix it directly: — Shorten B2 visa stays — Tighten screening at entry — Enforce visa intent rules These are policy levers fully within government control. You don’t rewrite the Constitution because enforcement is weak. C’mon man!

Average price of ground beef: 2000: $2.01 2026: $6.74 245% increase Pound of Bananas: 2000: $.50 2026: $.65 30% increase How are bananas that travel 3000 miles to my doorstep inflation proof compared to ground beef when it only travels a few hundred miles?

Today is Trans Day of Visibility, and the news out of the Supreme Court makes it impossible not to reflect on how far we’ve been pushed backward. In 2019, I introduced a bill to ban conversion therapy in NE, the same year CO passed theirs. We actually came REALLY close.
The Associated Press@AP

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled against a law banning “conversion therapy” for LGBTQ+ kids in Colorado, one of about two dozen states that banned the discredited practice. apnews.com/article/suprem…

We had Renewal By Anderson out at the house last year to give us a quote for 11 windows and a sliding glass door. $35,000. How do these guys stay in business?

@QuintonLucasKC You are not running for Congress. If this is a great business idea maybe you should go ahead and open a grocery store in the inner core right?

Yes! We’d love more people selling milk and groceries in Kansas City’s inner city rather than “11 doors of coolers.”

Two-part question… just for kicks. 1. How much do you think it cost to create this and pay his signing fee? 2. How much do you think this piece could eventually be worth? As a treasure hunter… I just had to ask.

@TheHorrorjoshua @KAKEnews Wood chippers for Pedos. Deflect much for cheering on baby killers? Not even a Republican because unlike you, I've figured out it's all fake and gay.

Have I got a great story to tell… Signed: “Captain Kirk XRP 589 William Shatner” I’ll tell you this part. He looked at me and said, “What’s XRP 589?” I said, “Hey… you know… like your XMoney.” Then I added, “Besides… don’t you remember being on the radio show The Curse of 589?” He smiled and said, “No… I don’t.” 🖖

I’m so sick of Republicans saying this. I’m not too lazy to get documents to vote. I’m not too stupid to get documents to vote. It is unconstitutional to make women pay more than men to vote!! Read the 24th amendment!
