Last night the Netherlands committed the rarest of blunders, an “own goal” scored in the penalty shootout. The goal keeper blocked the shot, but the ball fell beneath his body as he slid, and then out of control, his leg shifted backward right into the stopped ball and kicked it in the net.

I learned in law school to never say something was “clear.” The professor said, “If it is clear, you don’t have to say it. If it is not clear, saying it is clear it will not make it so.”
Trying to predict what the Founders would do today is a slippery slope. Do we really know what they would say about guns right now?

🚨 JUST IN: Chief Justice John Roberts just delivered a TERRIFYING opinion upholding birthright citizenship for illegal aliens and Chinese billionaires’ birth industry “Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights — to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land.’ We keep that promise today.” 🤯😡 THAT IS NOT WHAT THEY INTENDED FOR INVADERS!!! Madness

CJ Roberts — the Court would not have reached the issue without him — has green-lit the CCP to continue sending pregnant women to the U.S. to give birth to U.S. citizens, and then return to China to raise them as Chinese Communists — who will have a right to vote by mail in U.S. elections for President. If he believes no foreign government would consider such a scheme, he’s a fool.

The Trump Admin and all future Admins will have full justification to turn around and send back to their home countries any pregnant female who seeks to enter the U.S. at Ports of Entry. Maybe we should set up medical clinics at U.S. Embassies around the world, and make it mandatory for females seeking a visa to undergo a pregnancy test, and then only allow a visa to be valid for entry into the U.S. for 72 hours after the date of the test. Why would this not be considered a valid alternative to the EO in order to address the problem of birther tourism?

The birthright citizenship case loss was not a huge defeat because it was never going to win at present. I’m not making a political comment. I’m making a legal comment. SCOTUS was never going to toss out 150 years of common understanding, based on a relatively recent critique. It’s going to take time. But we got closer than we had any reasonable expectation of getting, with a 5 to 4 recognition that the 14th Amendment does not require birthright citizenship is currently understood. This can’t be rationally considered a defeat. Instead, this is a step towards eventual victory. It is inevitable that, like all other first world countries, except Canada, we’re going to revise the notion of citizenship to reflect current reality. It didn’t happen today, and it wasn’t going to happen today. But what you need to understand is this was a huge step forward towards eliminating birthright citizenship. Don’t freak out; a few more defeats like this and we will have won.

Tina’s remarks, over Barrett’s disappointing reliability in interpreting constitutional law, mirrors the majority of conservatives. Her professorial background, like Obama’s, has given her an intellectual detachment to her opinions (except for abortion), rather than a pragmatic, common sense approach in carrying out constitutional demands. This is not the only instance where Barrett has joined liberals in rendering a disheartening ruling countering right-sided thinking, holding their breath that she might miraculously come for a sensible, but knowing she won’t.

Furthermore, Bitter, Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson’s opinions are usually formed around an interpretation of the constitution as a “living” one, vs Alito, Thomas who render their decisions according to an “originalist” perspective —-> calling for an understanding of the Constitution based on what the Constitution originally said, rather than updated according to current fads or ideologies.

For all those complaining about the birthright citizenship case ignoring the history of the 14th Amendment, do you want to go down that road? The 2nd Amendment was ratified in 1791- 8 years after the Revolution ended. In that war, militias were important in defeating the British. Many of the militia troops supplied their own guns. A well-regulated militia was viewed as necessary to maintain order and defend against threats, including Indian threats. Should the 2nd Amendment only apply to National Guard troops? Guns were single shot muzzle loaders. That is the next step in your kind of analysis.
