🚨NEW: Lindsey Graham to @BillOReilly: "If we're not [successful], blame ME — 'cause I DESERVE blame. If we're not successful, you can blame me —because NOBODY has advocated to take on this Iranian regime more forcefully than me." @DailyCaller




With no Callais opinion today, here’s what the status of primaries looks like. Unless states do something extraordinary (like move or redo primaries), now too late for Callais to have much impact on the midterms.

BREAKING: The Pentagon is preparing detailed plans for a possible U.S. ground force deployment in Iran, sources say. cbsn.ws/4bsFiCw




The enemy is inside the gates.




I’ve been called everything under the sun, but it won’t stop me from speaking the truth. SHARIA LAW HAS NO PLACE IN AMERICA.

Trump: I have much more power in my second term. I said I'm going to sign an executive order to ensure that the second Saturday in December, is preserved exclusively, nobody is playing football. Not Ohio state against Notre Dame. Not LSU against Alabama. Nobody is going to play football for four hours during that very special time of the year in December. It's preserved forever for the army-navy game. If you don't want to watch football, you don't have to. But if you want to watch football, you are only watching one game. You are not watching 19 different games.

TSA lines this morning in New York City. This is simply unacceptable. Democrats need to pay the TSA, open the government fully, and end this ridiculous charade. Their NYC constituents are now waiting hours and hours to board flights.



🚨The Trump admin has filed its reply brief in the birthright citizenship case before the Supreme Court. It opens: The “main object” of the Citizenship Clause was to grant citizenship to freed slaves and their children, whose allegiance to the United States had generally been established through generations of parental domicile. By contrast, aliens who are just passing through the United States, and those who cross our borders illegally, lack ties of allegiance and do not obtain the “priceless and profound gift” of citizenship for their children. To receive citizenship under the Clause, a person must be both born “in the United States” and “subject to the jurisdiction thereof…” That language grants citizenship to children “completely subject” to the United States’ “political jurisdiction.” Children of temporarily present or illegal aliens do not qualify because their parents are not domiciled in, and thus do not owe the requisite allegiance to, the United States. Temporarily present aliens are by definition not domiciled here, while illegal aliens lack the legal capacity to form such a domicile.
