Trump and Birthright Citizenship

It needs to go to the Supreme Court first. The language in the Constitution is fairly direct so the Supreme Court needs to opine that the Constitution does not guarantee birthright citizenship. Even if Congress were to pass a ban and Trump signed, the law can’t violate the Constitution.

It will be interesting to see if Trump can get five votes, the language is what it is.

Give Elon credit for the Nazi salute

The Nazi BS is a pointless and disingenuous argument that no one really believes. I think you know that.

There's plenty of legitimate points out there that one can debate. Lots going on right now. State your case on one of those, hold the insults and you likely get a better response.
You are right that my post here was a pot stirring insult. But I think most of my posts aren’t that way. Maybe I’m wrong - stared into the Abyss and all that. But other than Zinger, every response to my posts is just a silly name call or something that “whatabouts” my point without ever saying anything factual or substantive to contradict it.

Thank God. Trump restores our freedoms to

Most presidents seem to end up pardoning some unsavory characters. It's been happening since at least Reagan.

It's not my job to comment on every single political development or every presidential pardon, and I've detailed what exactly about the mass pardon of the 300 or so people convicted of attacking the police in Trump's name is different. But, ok. I'll try and respond.

Biden did not pardon Leanard Peltier, who I assume is the cop killer in question since you provided no names. I don't support that commutation (no pardon and confined to his home until he dies, which is likely soon), but he had quite a number of people and organizations who did.

James H. Reynolds, the US Attorney who prosecuted the case, has publicly apologized for irregularities in the prosecution and has called for his pardon.

In December, 33 US lawmakers sent a letter to Biden calling for Peltier's clemency due to irregularities with his prosecution.

The Pope and a number of Human Rights organizations have done the same, for the same reasons.

Who are the equivalent lawmakers or organizations requesting clemency for the 300 or so people convicted of violent felonies against the police? Most of the GOP comments I've seen on the most egregious pardons have been critical of Trump's move, for obvious reasons.

Biden communed a number of former death sentences to life in prison, so I am assuming that group includes the child rapists and murderers you are referencing. That is in no way the same and letting them walk free.

If you have some specific names, I'd be glad to comment on them.
FWIW, my post you quoted wasn't responding to you, as I quoted Troubadawg's post, not yours.


But, on Peltier, regardless of irregularities, he brutally murdered two FBI agents.

But, let's add a couple names who Biden also had released:
