The first sentence of the fourteenth amendment of the US Constitution: "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. The important part that is under dispute is the phrase "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof". The authors of the amendment, and the interpretation until recently was that phrase meant that you had some sort of connection with the US by which you were subject to the laws of the US. So if you were born of parents who are permanent residents (green card holders) then who are a natural born citizen. If you are born of parents who were on vacation in the US under a tourist visa, no the location of your birth is incidental and does not grant you citizenship. Almost every other country in the world grants citizenship throught the citizenship or ethnicity of the parents of the child.

Trump: “Birthright citizenship is a scam and should not be allowed.” Grok: “Tiffany Trump is the only one of Trump’s kids who is not a beneficiary of birthright citizenship. All the other kids were born before his wives became U.S. citizens.”

We are a Judeo-Christian nation. All the same podcast bros who are saying we are not said the opposite before 2025. I don’t care when the word Judeo-Christian started to be used politically. The Old Testament (Jewish) and the New Testament (Christianity) make up the Bible. Hope I didn’t lose anyone yet. According to political scientist Donald Lutz’s landmark study published in the American Political Science Review, the book of Deuteronomy was the single most frequently cited work in all of America’s founding-era political literature. Followed by Montesquieu’s The Spirit of the Laws. Deuteronomy was referenced nearly TWICE as often as all of Locke’s writings, and the apostle Paul was mentioned about as frequently as Montesquieu and Blackstone. The book the founders quoted most wasn’t Locke. It wasn’t Montesquieu. It was a 3,000 year old Hebrew text about a nation under God. Deuteronomy 1:16-17 commands judges not to discriminate between the powerful and the poor “ye shall hear the small as well as the great.” Leviticus 19:15 echoes it: “Thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty.” The founders produced: “All men are created equal.” Deuteronomy 17:6 establishes that no person shall be convicted of a capital crime on the testimony of one witness alone. The Constitution’s treason clause mirrors it almost word for word: “No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act.” Deuteronomy 24:6 prohibits punishing children for the sins of their fathers. The Constitution reflects this directly: “No attainder of treason shall work corruption of blood.” The founders also found the separation of powers not just in Isaiah 33:22 but in Deuteronomy 16, 17, and 18, which lay out distinct offices with distinct functions a separation the founders saw as having divine sanction. The founders saw a model of due process of law procedural fairness and equality of all persons before the law in the laws of Moses, especially Exodus 23, which for centuries has been called “the Ten Commandments of Due Process.” These principles are explicitly guaranteed in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. So yes, we are a Judeo-Christian nation FOUNDED on the Old Testament (Judaism) and the New Testament (Christianity). Hope that clears things up.

This is false and conflated. The “eye for an eye” passage is in the context of establishing a governmental framework for a legal system, whereas, “turn the other cheek” is speaking to personal relationships. The duties of the magistrate are to administer and maintain order (see Romans 13), it is your personal responsibility to maintain good relationships with your neighbors in as much as it is up to you.

@DefiyantlyFree “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you...turn to them the other cheek also" For all the Judeo deniers American law & government is founded, written & adjudicated based on which principle: Eye for an Eye or Turn the other cheek?

Popes in the past have encouraged just wars against those waging unjust actions, especially against Christians. I assume the Pope's comments are directed at the USA as a response to the current war with the Iranian regime. This regime has been at war with the USA for the past 47 years, which started with the kidnapping and holding of US Diplomats (primarily) and was continued through proxies such as Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houtis. As the leading State sponsor of terrorism, it has been responsible for many deaths of US Military Members as well as non military Citizens. The Iranian regime had been on an ongoing track to develop a nuclear weapon, which through various esbionage activities had been stymied, but eventually they have overcome those impediments and were very close to being able to build a nuclear bomb. It was St. Augustine (a Saint of the Roman Catholic Chruch) who deveolped the foundational Just War Theory, and St. Thomas Aquinas who further developed it and formalized it. It seems to me that a Christian leader might argue that the facts and circumstances of a particular situation does not provide the right to go to war in such an instance. However, when one has been routinely attacked many times and in many ways by an adversary, and that adversary has repeatedly declared that you need to be eliminated, wiped off the face of the Earth, and has been laser focused on developing the means by which to exact that total destruction, it is hard to envision a more just circumstance to go to war. It seems to me that unlike some of his predecessors, the current Pope seems content to allow violent attrocities to occur while sitting back and appeasing those responsible.

Update: Just as I thought, BS. The bullet apparently fragmented, meaning is broke apart into small pieces, and therefore it could not be matched TO ANY RIFLE, not just the one recovered with the arrest. The value of your posts depend on the effort to bring truth to what you report. You’re nothing but a POS propagandist.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: New court filing: the bullet used to kill Charlie Kirk does not match the rifle allegedly used by suspect Tyler Robinson. The murder weapon and the alleged murder weapon are not the same weapon. This is not a minor evidentiary dispute. If the bullet doesn’t match the gun — the prosecution’s case has a fundamental problem. Joe Kent said on Tucker Carlson that the NCTC investigation into Kirk’s death was stopped. Kent said Kirk’s last words to him were: stop us from getting into a war with Iran. Kent confirmed Kirk was under documented pressure from pro-Israel donors in the weeks before his death. The investigation was stopped. Now the bullet doesn’t match the gun.

@trumplicans2024 Classic projection "this is my thoughts and feelings, so it --must-- also be for all others." No. This guy is among the minority and is just imagining he's part of the main scene.

No. He is a man like every other man, subject to the same foibles as any one else. Focus on the phrase "no distinction" in the scripture quote below: "the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus . . ." Romans 3:22-24 ESV

Citizenship is a right for those who are born in the USA by parents who are not merely transient in this country. All other citizenship is a priviledge given to immigrants who have demonstrated good morals and decency. This is exactly what the immigration law says and requires. Someone close to me recently went through this process so I know this very well. But if you lied, cheated, or otherwise misrepresented who you are, what your past and background is, and if you were involved in various crimes and failed to disclose the same, you are not eligible for citizenship. PERIOD FULL STOP. That is the law and it is a law that makes sense. We want immigrants who will assimilate into the culture and fabric of our society. If you come here and want to mount some sort of revolution to change our culture, our government, our way of life, then you are not an immigrant, you are an invader, and you need to be repelled right out of this country.

🚨BREAKING: Pam Bondi just said…“Being a citizen in our country is a privilege, not a right.” Citizenship is a right, guaranteed by the Constitution… not something granted based on opinion, loyalty, or who they like. This is authoritarian rhetoric.

Rocks in your socks? Perhap rocks in your head. People who are well read in the biblical narrative are some of best critical thinkers around, and usually those who spend thier lives studying this book are deeply committed Christians. One thing we know for sure from this deep study of the bible is that ALL human beings are deeply flawed and require the help of God to understand themselves and their condition and perhaps improve themselves, one step at a time. The problem with radical leftist is that they do not understand this fact of the nature of mankind. They've been led to believe that "if we just do it the right way" we can create a paradise on Earth. But the result will always be the same, no matter how many times you try: oppression, mass killing and a small cadre of elites with all the wealth and a large population of poor just barely scraping by. The worship of government will do this everytime.

If God does not set the standards of what is good and what is evil, then each man or woman will set their own standard. Madalyn Murray O'Hair found that out the hard way, when she, along with her son and granddaughter were murdered by other Atheists in her organization in order to gain access to the organization's financial resources. No God, no standards, no law by which to judge lawlessness.

Antifa using the combination of "anti" and "fascist" is a very typical corruption of language used by radical leftist. This group serves the same function that the Brown Shirts served for the Nazis in 1930s Germany, or the Red Guards in 1918 Russia during the Communist Revolution. They are street thugs who are at the beck and call of those formenting the same kind of overthrow of the government as occured in Germany and Russia a century ago. They need to be rooted out and appropriately dealt with.
