In order for themselves and most people who call themselves "Americans" to not be written off, there was no choice but to preserve "birthright citizenship." Brown people are dominant in the AMERICAS. It is time for the light-skinned to understand they are the ones least from here. Birthright citizenship wasn't written merely for the benefit of emancipated slaves. The so-called "founders" and their heirs needed an exit ramp, too.

Great summary, Dissent. 🫂

Getting more judges and overturning citizens united needs to be the first thing we do. Besides investigating all these asshats for their corrupt actions. What a disgrace.

This might be a tool to achieve accountability. What do you think of DemocracyEvolved.us.com?

Well said and documented. FedSoc most definitely has been playing the long game.

White male supremacy is their goal.

White Christian male supremacy, Tom. No Jews or Muslims count.

These people are evil and would like the lot of us not on their ship to drop dead one way or the other. This is the fundamental bottom line of federalists to maga and all of those in between willing to blindly follow their word. If we want an America for the plurality of peoples then we better dumb sure stand up and fight for it. Thank you DIB for highlighting how it wasn’t much s a win today. Many here on Substack pointed that out too but we must spread the word to the rest of folks inclined toward our way of going forward.

Jesus Christ! In my heart I knew that Kavanaugh really wanted to vote the other way. And the father needs to be a citizen? What if the mother is a citizen and the father is not? Oh yes, women don't count, they're just incubators. Basically they don't just want to go back to the original, they also want to reinterpret the original. These people are diabolical. Thank you for shining a more glaring light on their evil plans. The Supreme Court needs more than just a few more Justices. It needs a total makeover and corruption purge.

This corrupt Roberts Court.

I would say that these corrupt and criminal judges must have a brand new, very-strict, very strong ethics code that they must personally sign when they get appointed. All the republican judges take enormous bribes.

And they should not be allowed to "fudge", which we can see in future times, really amounts to them bald face lying. The minute they "act dumb" that should be a tip off and a dismissal. Kavanaugh's juvinal antics and supreme rudeness to women Senators should have immediately disqualified him. Who, except for Republicans, evidently. Wants a Supreme Court Justice who acts like a 3 year old (I take that back as I've known 3 year olds with more awareness and self control) and goes around yelling "I like beer"? What? Is he some lush making excuses? But before they get to that point they need to purge the corrupt, bought and paid for MAGA controlled Justices. And why are they the final say on what's Constitutional, when so many of them just want to set it on fire?

This tawdry collection of corrupt political ‘ justices’ are not even remotely cognizant of the U S Constitution and its application to American lives . They care little about the concepts of freedom inherent in its message . This group molded by Leonard Leo and his club care not a bit for truth but only their beliefs that benefit themselves and others like them . They are responsible for over reach by the Supreme Court . The Supreme Court needs some ethical guidelines. Congress needs to supply them.

I would love to ask them whether or not they believe in the second amendment. Somehow, I think they would find a loophole for that one.

Co Founder of THE FEDERALIST

has some thoughts: I’d say it’s unbelievable but it’s precisely the opposite.

Several ways forward here given the choice of Roberts/Barrett to nullify the 14th Amendment and extra-constitutionally replace it with their own language:

1) Nullification. States issue birth certificates, and they can just stop issuing them to non-citizens. Roberts/Barrett can deal with the fallout and litigate each birth individually.

2) Pack the court. If Robert wants to be a politician who writes laws instead of a judge, then he can fight with 10 more unelected legislators in robes.

3) Deny entry to all pregnant foreigners.

4) Deny entry to all female foreigners.

5) Require sterilization of all foreign visitors prior to entry.

6) Dissolution of the Union. A nation which can't even restrict who gets to be a citizen isn't a nation.

7) Amend the Constitution. This is point*s, because once a judge

decides he can r + the Constitution at will (as Roberts and…

8) Disolve the union…

We MUST make reforming this corrupt court a central issue in the midterms

Democracy Evolved - I just found it and am curious what you think of it - could this be the way we unite? It just might have all the necessary elements to actually work! https://www.democracyevolved.us.com/#
