PRO TIP: Dudes, if you want your son to be a Major League Baseball player, drive your wife to Dodger stadium and have her give birth to your son in the parking lot.
It automatically makes him a Dodger.
The Supreme Court says so.
How to Kill a Country:
Open the border
Allow illegal aliens in by the millions
Give out visas
Don’t enforce overstayed visas
Pause deportations
Allow birthright citizenship
Demonize opposition
Provide free housing
Provide government benefits
Give illegal aliens Driver’s Licenses
Automate voter registration
Mail every voter a mail-in ballot
Install Secretaries of State
Refuse to clean the voter rolls
Install judges
Accept ballots after Election Day
Anyone who knows about Clarence Thomas dissents knows they are almost always short and sweet.
The fact that he wrote a 91 page dissent for this monstrosity of a decision on birthright shows how absolutely infuriated he is.
🚨 JUST NOW: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis DROPS this line on the Supreme Court
“Judicially mandating that foreigners are entitled to birth US citizens against the wishes of the people as reflected in law means we cease to be our own rulers.”

I bring home a trapped coyote and let it loose in the kitchen.
Hackles up. Teeth bared. Pissing on the floor.
My wife says, "Get it out."
I tell her that is a very unwelcoming and unchristian way to speak about a future house pet.
The children back into the hallway.
I tell them it's a rescue.
I tell them fences are fear.
I tell them cages are barbaric.
I tell them the old rules were cruel.
I tell them it will domesticate in time.
Then I grab my lunchbox and leave them to live with my principles.
When I get home, there is blood on the floor, and the experts who sold me on compassion are already explaining why nobody could have seen this coming.
Anyway, that's Western migration policy.

🚨 JUST IN: The MLB has BACKED DOWN, DECLINES to fine the Giants players after they wore Bible verses on the LGBTQ pride caps
"The players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be." — letter to Sen. Josh Hawley
The MLB ADMITS they screwed up.
NEVER BACK DOWN when defending the religious freedom of Christians!
HUGE blunder by the MLB that this even became an issue. Christians won't take it!
Praise God for Christian Giants pitchers, Landen Roupp, Ryan Walker, & JT Brubaker who refused to bow down to the idol of LGBTQ & boldly wrote Bible verses on their hats to remind people that the rainbow belongs to God, not Pride.
Modern-day Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
(*Also, praise God for Sam Hentges who refused to wear the Pride hat at all)
The Virginia Company made the settlers who arrived at Jamestown try this out
They were under strict orders to avoid fighting, to try to convert the Indians, to work with them rather than defeat and expel them
That led to much suffering, culminating in the 1622 Massacre, in which a third of the colony died
Then they went scorched earth on the Indians, wiping out as many as they could and engaging in harsh reprisals. That worked much better, and bought them 20 years of peace
They did the same when confronted by the sand problem in 1644, and then Nathaniel Bacon wiped out what remained of the I Dian problem during his rebellion
Peace at any cost let only to death. War and stern reprisals created the conditions for a prosperous society
84 years ago today, a pilot running out of fuel made a decision that won the Pacific War. Most Americans have never heard his name.
June 4, 1942. Six months after Pearl Harbor, Japan's navy is undefeated. Four of the carriers that burned Pearl, Akagi, Kaga, Soryu, and Hiryu, are steaming toward Midway to finish off the US Pacific Fleet.
At 7:52 AM, Wade McClusky launches from USS Enterprise leading 32 Dauntless dive bombers. Here's the detail nobody mentions: McClusky is a fighter pilot. He'd been given the air group weeks earlier and had barely flown a dive bomber in combat. Now he's leading every SBD the Enterprise has at the most important target in the Pacific.
9:20 AM. He arrives at the intercept point where the Japanese fleet is supposed to be.
Empty ocean. Nothing for miles.
The Japanese had turned. Nobody knew where. And now McClusky owns the worst math problem in naval aviation: his fuel is bleeding away, and every minute he keeps searching, he condemns more of his own pilots to ditch in open water where nobody will find them.
Doctrine is clear. Turn back.
McClusky keeps going. He works a search pattern, squeezing miles out of dying fuel tanks.
9:55 AM. Far below, a single Japanese destroyer is cutting a white scar across the ocean at flank speed. It's the Arashi, racing to rejoin the fleet after depth-charging the American submarine Nautilus. Think about that. A failed sub attack is about to give away the entire Japanese navy.
McClusky reads the wake like an arrow and follows it.
10:02 AM. The horizon fills with the entire Japanese strike force. Four carriers, their decks crammed with planes being refueled and rearmed. Fuel lines snaking everywhere. Bombs stacked in the open.
And here's the miracle: the sky above them is empty. Minutes earlier, American torpedo squadrons had attacked at sea level and been annihilated. Torpedo 8 lost all 15 planes. One survivor, Ensign George Gay, watched what came next while hiding under his seat cushion in the water. Those doomed pilots dragged every Japanese fighter down to the waves. The door upstairs was wide open.
10:22 AM. McClusky pushes over from 14,500 feet. Both squadrons follow him down onto Kaga. It's actually a mistake, doctrine said split the targets, but Lt. Dick Best catches it mid-dive, pulls out with two wingmen, and goes after Akagi alone. His single bomb pierces the flight deck into the packed hangar. It's enough.
By 10:28, Kaga, Akagi, and Soryu, the third hit simultaneously by Yorktown's bombers, are floating infernos. Six minutes. Three carriers that attacked Pearl Harbor, gone. Hiryu follows them to the bottom that evening.
The cost of McClusky's gamble was real. Many Enterprise bombers never made it home, some shot down, others swallowed by the sea when their tanks ran dry. McClusky himself was jumped by two Zeros on the way out, took five bullets through his shoulder, and still flew his shot-up Dauntless back to the Enterprise.
Admiral Nimitz said McClusky's decision "decided the fate of our carrier task force and our forces at Midway." Japan never won another major battle.
One borrowed pilot. One destroyer's wake. One choice to keep flying when every gauge said go home.
