Good. Screw the Republicans and their anti-Constitutional BS.
Are you sad?
You sound triggered like typical Democrats get..
AR: Have you actually read the Constitution and it’s history instead of just the talking points the party apparatchiks feed you? The 14th amendment was written in 1866 and ratified in 1868 to protect recently freed slaves; NOT to endorse people crossing the border illegally to have their children here and thereby creating an anchor baby.
Dominic M. Did you read the 14th Amendment? The first sentence of Section 1 says “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.” If you read the entire amendment it says nothing about slavery.
Glen and JW clearly didn’t understand the ruling lol. Trump and the GOP lost. I’m gleeful.
I’m bored of the right’s racist “anchor baby” crap. You’re disgusting. This wasn’t a problem for the right until recently. Bush defended birthright citizenship vehemently.
The GOP turning its back on the 14th Amendment is racist, pure and simple. There is no other real argument for it. It’s a tool of convenience for a party that has been overrun by disgusting people who hate the things that make America strong.
F the GOP 🙂
Congress could amend the statute tomorrow if they wanted to. But guess what? They don’t. Because they know the vast majority of the country would be appalled and they would pay an even steeper price in Nov
lol…I thought you and the other leftists hated the Supreme Court. Lol…Only when things don’t go your way.
The same leftists that wanted to disqualify ACB because she Catholic and wanted to disqualify Brett Kavanaugh because he liked beer.
We don’t want a partisan Supreme Court. At least I don’t .
Michael N.
I actually agree with you. If you don’t like a Supreme Court decision, change the law.
That goes for the Dems as well as the R’s.
But our Congressional leaders refuse to work together and have abdicated their responsibilities.
lol….A.R. having a meltdown even when the Court voted his way,
Keith – what’s disturbing is that this wasn’t a 9-0 decision. Go read the decision, it’s just Roberts pointing out that Thomas and Alito turned in nonsense.
The entire point of the Republican Party is to roll back everything to before the era of FDR … undoing all the things that made it possible to have a middle class.
Dominic – the debate around the amendment was clear that those who wrote the 14th Amendment intended it to apply to more than just slaves.
The reason Wong Kim Ark was decided the way it was in 1898, and why the law has been so settled for over 100 years, is because of that clarity.
Maybe, do your own research instead of just repeating party talking points?

Joe B.
I’ve read the 14th amendment.
I know what it means and why it was added to the Constitution.
I’ve listened to PHD level historians and legal experts.
* Just as the Dems and their leftist allies scream about the 2nd Amendment being outdated and not applicable to today’s modern world, the same thing applies. Now the Dems are all of a sudden being the originalist.*
My point was not the decision, but everyone on the left constantly demeaning and wanting to completely upend the Supreme Court every time they don’t get their way on something. And every time they don’t get their way on something they always scream racism. They throw tantrums kicking & screaming like soiled entitled brats.
Rolling things back? Not hardly!! It’s about steadying the ship so it doesn’t sink. In one year nearly half of the income that the government takes in annually will be to pay only the interest on our national debt.
People that pay no federal income taxes ( almost 50% ) don’t give a dam.
So yes! Some things do need to be rolled back or decreased.
And just taxing the rich will not solve anything. There’s an entitlement mentality with the Dems.
Keith, the modern re-interpretation of the Second Amendment only dates back around 40 years.
It will eventually click for you. An actual serious Republican on the deficit would have cut those services like DOGE did and paired them with tax increases. What actually happened is those cuts in services went to pay for … yet another tax cut for the wealthy. It happens every time with Republicans and folks keep thinking the issue is they haven’t cut enough. Maybe … wait for it … the issue is we should stop cutting taxes.
Why is it every time Republicans, the supposedly party that is serious about the deficit, do nothing but make the deficit substantially worse and none of you folks who continue to vote for them?
^^ none of you folks will stop voting for them?
Not too bright are ya, Keith? Lmfao
A.R.
lol… Brighter than you.
Joe B.
Unlike most, I blame both parties for the financial mess that we are in.
Republicans keep extending tax cuts and the Dems want unlimited spending.
Doge was a great concept. Waste and fraud are rampant.
The Dems flat out refuse any attempt to reign in spending or cut out waste and fraud.
The R’s flat out will not raise taxes.
EVERYONE knows that spending needs to be cut and taxes raised. AND EVERYONE should share in the tax burden.
In my world, if you are not a net contributor in paying federal taxes, you don’t get to vote in federal elections.
Dems want socialist policies, but will NOT want to pay the bill.
Lol..,Socialist policies are not free. The middle class and lower middle class in the Scandinavian countries pay dearly in taxes.
Too many people feel entitled to free everything. They have no concept of the self sacrifice and sweat equity that needs to be put in to make this country function.
To your first paragraph. Both the Dems and the R’s flip flop
on political stances and Constitutional Amendmsnts.
Keith, no. It’s not the fault of both parties. You simply do not understand what you’re talking about.
The “glory days” of America that MAGA is supposedly pining for in the 50’s and 60’s were enabled by that darn socialist FDR and his regressive tax polices, which said either companies were paying 90% taxes or you’re paying your workers better and doing things for them like health care benefits or pensions, because if you’re not the government will have to foot the bill and it will do so via that tax revenue.
You talk about how terrible other countries are. They don’t have to worry about one car crash that isn’t their fault bankrupting them. They don’t have to sweat childcare or healthcare or retirement.
America would be well served to drop the attitude that the way every other country does it stinks and there is nothing to learn from the world but what not to do.
I guess this one was bridge too far for the SCOTUS to twist around to MAGA and Project 2025. Too many people can read and it’s too obvious when it says “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.”
I love how the extreme right is absolutist on the 2nd Amendment but wishy-washy when it comes to the First, Fourteenth, Nineteenth, and Twenty-Fifth.
If there is anything consistent with Republicans, it’s their lack of coherency.
Which is why “textualism” and “originalism” is a bunch of nonsense. If Gorsuch, Alito, and Thomas have decided the plain reading of the Constitution and over a century of settled law no longer matters, they should be impeached for being naked partisans.
A.R.
lol….I assure that your Dems and their America hating leftists allies are very inconsistent also.
In fact they are delusional at best and borderline insane.
A.R.
lol……If you don’t think your Demwitt Congressional leftists aren’t racist, then I have a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell you.
Keith, I expect very detailed examples backed up with evidence. I’ll be waiting.
A.R.
I could give examples a mile long.
Your Dem Party is far more racist than anything you can conger up against the R’s.
But you didn’t bother, Keith, thereby making his point. Do the work.
Dominic…please don’t quote the Constitution if you don’t understand the full context. Slaves were brought here from another land. And the 14th was not exclusively a slave-related Amendment. History…is a thing.
