It will be fought in courts, for certain. I think it should be won in the courts, but with the Obama anti-constitutional judges, hard to be sure. It is the right thing to do, for certain.

Whatever he does by EO needs to be codified in legislation. Otherwise, it’s tit for tat every 4 years.

Birthright citizenship came about by a deliberately faulty, left wing interpretation of the 14th Amendment which is intended (exclusively, IMO) for ex-slaves. If they want to challenge Trump's order they have to go to the court where they will be shown door.

DACA isn't "Codified by Congress" it was a "Deferred enforcement" executive order only to allow a Congressional Immigration reform Bill to be brought up, "Th Dream Act"...but it never passed, even when Dems held the congress, One fairly simple short term solution is an EO stating that "Full American Citizenship, and it's related Rights do not confer until the age of 21"(or perhaps 18yo)Meaning minors though born in the USA cannot be used to keep the rest of their family here, nor to remain in the country until they file for citizenship at age 18/21.No more Anchor "babies". Also ends the "Pregnancy Tourism" industry where thousands of primarily, south american, central american, South east Asian and LOTS of Chinese fly into the USA as Tourists, just to have their babies here, "earning" the child USA citizenship status. It is a YUUUGE business in California. Entire Hotels constantly full of pregnant chinese women waiting to go into labor.

#15, there is fantasy and there is reality. Considering that our government of lifelong politicians can't do their sworn duty to create things like a budget, you can forget any reforms from this setup. You are beyond dreaming if you think they will fix something as 'accepted' as born here gets automatic citizenship. ONLY President Trump can force them to publically vote on and act on anything.

Fourteenth Amendment: "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." Everyone born in the United States (except maybe a diplomat's child born in their embassy) is an American citizen. Period. Full stop. Birthright citizenship is the law of the land, established by the Constitution. The Fourteenth Amendment is very clear about it, and the Supreme Court has consistently upheld the plain meanings of its words. The only way to change this is by an amendment to the Constitution. President Trump is getting bad advice on this. He can do NOTHING about birthright citizenship. Nothing. Like it, don't like it, no matter. Your feelings have nothing to do with it. Just live with it. Besides, anchor babies are the least of the problem anyway.

John Lennon: Musician, advocate...closet Republican? The singer's former assistant claims in a new documentary that Lennon was a Ronald Reagan fan and a conservative at the time of his death. The Toronto Sun reports that Fred Seaman, Lennon's assistant from 1979 until his death in 1980, made the revelations in the documentary "Beatles Stories." "John, basically, made it very clear that if he were an American he would vote for Reagan because he was really sour on Jimmy Carter," Seaman reportedly told filmmaker Seth Swirsky.

A judge ruled that the US Navy can keep racial preferences. Marxist DEI is alive and well in the Navy. Meritocracy is dead if this isn’t overturned. Donald Trump and his Cabinet can’t get into office soon enough. US Senior District Judge Richard D. Bennett of Maryland on Friday allowed the US Naval Academy to keep considering applicants’ race and ethnicity in its admission practices, calling the issue a matter of national security. Usually, meritocracy is the best way to protect national security. We should have the best candidates in our Navy.

A Virginia realtor is facing the possibility of having his license revoked over social media posts as concerns mount about the status of free speech for those working in real estate and other professions. Wilson Fauber, a Staunton, Virginia-based realtor with a career spanning four decades, appeared before the Virginia Association of Realtors on Wednesday in a hearing to determine whether he violated the National Association of Realtors’ Standard of Practice 10-5. Adopted in 2020, the standard declares that realtors “must not use harassing speech, hate speech, epithets, or slurs based on race, color, religion, sex disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.”

The clemency was announced by the White House, which included a statement from the 46th president. “Today, I signed a pardon for my son Hunter," Biden wrote in a statement.

A federal judge on Wednesday dismissed January 6 defendant Ray Epps' year-long defamation lawsuit against Fox News, ruling that Epps failed to "state a claim." Epps, who some conservatives had speculated was an undercover FBI agent sent by the bureau to stoke the January 6 riot in 2021, filed the lawsuit last year, claiming that an indictment from the Justice Department might not have surfaced against him if it wasn't for Fox's coverage. The January 6 defendant also argued that Fox News and former host Tucker Carlson engaged in a "years-long campaign spreading falsehoods about Epps."

The revelations from Rep.

Daniel Penny has been found not guilty of criminally negligent homicide in the chokehold death of Jordan Neely on a New York City subway car in 2023. Penny, 26, pleaded not guilty to charges of second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide. The judge dismissed the second-degree manslaughter charge against Penny on Friday after jurors said they could not come to a unanimous decision. The jury could only consider the negligent homicide charge if Penny was cleared of manslaughter, which is what the dismissal did.

A noticeable addition this year saw the seminal scene's baby Jesus draped in a keffiyeh - a traditional scarf used by Palestinians as a national symbol. Jesus was born into a Jewish family in Bethlehem some 2,000 years ago - and his death triggered the birth of Christianity. A statement from the wheelchair-bound pontiff, moreover, saw him humbly ask onlookers for peace in the Middle East, weeks after he called for an investigation into what he said may be a 'genocide' occurring in the Gaza Strip.

President Joe Biden delivered a short address from the White House on Sunday, claiming credit for the toppling of the regime of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, who was ousted by rebels after a long and brutal reign lasting decades. Biden claimed that a combination of U.S. policies — isolating Assad; tying Russia down in Ukraine; and allowing Israel freedom of action against Iran and its Hezbollah proxy — weakened the regime and left it without defenders. Biden said: Over the past four years, my administration pursued a clear, principled policy towards Syria. First, we made clear from the start that sanctions on Assad would remain in place unless

Exposure to lead in gasoline during childhood resulted in many millions of excess cases of psychiatric disorders over the last 75 years, a new study estimates. Lead was banned from automobile fuel in 1996. The study, published Wednesday in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, looked at its lasting impact in the U.S. by analyzing childhood blood lead levels from 1940 to 2015. According to the findings, the national population experienced an estimated 151 million excess mental health disorders attributable to exposure to lead from car exhaust during children’s early development.

The US launched 'dozens of precision airstrikes' in Syria on Sunday after rebels ousted longtime despotic leader Bashar al-Assad. The strikes were carried out against known ISIS camps and operatives based in Central Syria, according to US Central Command. This ongoing operation's objective was to prevent ISIS from taking advantage of the chaos and reorganizing after their attempt at a state collapsed in 2019, according to the Pentagon. The US military struck 75 targets using war planes, including B-52s, F-15s, and A-10s. So far, there are no indications of civilian life lost.

Before the castration spot aired, Ernst was struggling to raise money, trailing Republican frontrunner Mark Jacobs by several points for the GOP nomination. Conservative women — including Sarah Palin — found the ad humorous, endorsed her candidacy, and helped Ernst build her war chest. Within months, she was the undisputed frontrunner.

The re-opening of the Notre Dame Cathedral, which suffered extensive fire damage in 2019, occurred on Saturday, and dozens of world leaders were on hand for the festivities. There was one notable absence, though. President Joe Biden was nowhere to be found. Instead, Jill Biden showed up with her daughter. That alone spurred questions given the president has long claimed to be a "devout Catholic." Yet, he couldn't be bothered to show up for a once-in-a-lifetime event that other world leaders flocked to? Of course, while the White House will likely claim a scheduling conflict (there was nothing on the president's schedule for Saturday),

Not only did government officials repeatedly mislead Americans about the origin of the virus and U.S. funding of gain-of-function research, but the various mandates, and the failure to adopt early interventions such as hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin likely caused hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths.
