@SenRandPaul This shouldn't be a separate amendment. You should update the existing amendment to be clear about what birthright citizenship means.

Senator Rand Paul@SenRandPaul·
I am introducing a Constitutional Amendment to end Birthright Citizenship. Under current interpretations of American law, anyone born on American soil automatically becomes a U.S. citizen, regardless of whether the parent was here legally or not.  This is wrong and not at all the intent of those who wrote the 14th Amendment.  We are a country filled with immigrants, and legal immigration is valuable and should be protected. But we are also a country whose borders have been too open and our generosity exploited too often. President Trump has moved to seal our border from illegal immigrants more than any other president.   But we will have more to do. We need to make sure that only children born to legal residents of the U.S. are automatically citizens. I have supported protecting birthright citizenship from abuse since the beginning of my tenure in the Senate, when I cosponsored the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2011, and now I am proposing an amendment to protect United States citizenship in case the Supreme Court fails to address this issue correctly.

@SpecialPuppy1 Pragmatically it would bring the vote closer to the “will of the the people”. I believe every state currently has the ability to do this if they so choose. They would need to decide for themselves, as I respect state sovereignty when it comes to elections.

Would supporters of the Electoral College be okay with every state allocating electoral votes proportionally? For example, if Trump won 38% of the vote in California, he’d get about 21 of California’s electoral votes instead of 0. If not, why not?
James Surowiecki@JamesSurowiecki

There's no good civic argument for the electoral college. It was arguably necessary to ensure the ratification of the Constitution, but it's an anti-democratic device that gives some American citizens far more voting power than others, based purely on where they live.

@UziCryptoo There’s two kinds of debt: healthy and unhealthy. The amount is irrelevant. The reason is the important factor. If you’re making 9% on a 6% loan, then the more debt the better

CALLER: I put $3,000 worth of monthly expenses on my credit card and pay off in full. I get 2% cash back, so that's $60 back every month. DAVE RAMSEY: Get rid of the card. You're telling me that you spend $3,000 on a high interest credit card, just to get $60? That's not how you get rich! CALLER: I don't pay interest, I pay it off every month and get $60. DAVE RAMSEY: Get rid the card, use debit cards ONLY! CALLER: So give up the $60 I get back monthly? DAVE RAMSEY: That's not how you get rich! In reality, if you are resposible, USE credit cards. It's not just cash back. It's also liability protection. Every dollar matters.

@carrying_a @ZetPa0 @OhItsRyan They would find a way to accuse Democrats of doing something illegal, the DOJ would gladly pursue it, and the courts would find a way to decide it's not their jurisdiction.

@carrying_a @ZetPa0 @OhItsRyan That only works if the blocking party is the Republican Party. We've seen time and time again that it's "Rules for thee, not for me" with them.

@carrying_a @JustinS65097428 @OhItsRyan It could be argued if the Senate refused, that'd be seen as waiving its role and the new SCOTUS could be sworn in. They tried to do the same thing with the gerrymandering in Texas when Democrats refused to vote. So yeah, they 100% will go for it. How will the Dems stop that?

@OhItsRyan We all know that if Democrats try and deploy a McConnell strategy, Republicans will respond by doing things Democrats never considered, and they'll end up getting what they want.

@AmericanaMama_ I’ve been in exactly 2 physical altercations in my life. Both were preceded by me having to deal with incessant bullying. The instant I finally defended myself, the bullying stopped. I showed patience. I showed grace. At a certain point, you’re left with no other option.

@Stealth40k Suing the US government = suing US tax payers. The money will be coming from them after all, the American people. Regardless of the politics of it all, Nintendo ain’t going to give the money back to the people but instead themselves.

According to Aftermath, Nintendo of America sued the US Government over the tariffs. "[Nintendo of America] has standing to sue because it is the importer of record for goods that were subject to IEEPA Duties," lawyers write, noting that the company "suffered injury" from those tariffs. aftermath.site/nintendo-tarif…

Trump: "I want to let you know that the United States is going to make a contribution of $10 billion to the Board of Peace." He added that the amount "is a very small number when you look at that compared to the cost of war." Congress has power of the purse, not the President. The President doesn't have unilateral authority to commit billions in taxpayer dollars to a brand-new entity that he personally chairs FOR LIFE. This is absurd. Again, where the hell is Congress? @GOP @HouseGOP @SenateGOP
