When President Trump was hospitalized from October 2nd to October 5th in 2020 for severe Covid he called Dr. Anthony Fauci for medical advice. It seems the people calling for Dr. Fauci to be jailed have forgotten this.

Marco Rubio, Kash Patel, Nikki Haley, Bobby Jindal, and Donald Trump’s father all got U.S. citizenship thanks to the 14th Amendment.

MAGA Christians treat the Constitution the same way they treat the Bible. They just pick and choose the parts they want to believe.

"Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. ...if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else."

--Theodore Roosevelt, 1915

"Manufactured out of thin air"

The 14th Amendment has existed in its current form since 1866. All they "manufactured" was the status quo.

The real problem here is we have a sitting member of Congress arguing that a president should have the right to completely invalidate the Constitution with an executive order.

[John Jackson @hissgoescobra]

No two people are more different than Roosevelt and Trump. The former won a Medal of Honor, crushed monopolies, explored the Amazon, and was tougher than nails. The latter is a rapist, draft-dodger, and corrupt Gomorrah-appreciator riddled with insecurity. Piss off with this.

[Andrew Weinstein @Weinsteinlaw]

The same people shouting “shall not be infringed” now claim birthright citizenship was never real. It’s amazing how fast “absolute rights” turn negotiable the moment they belong to someone else.

Alternative take from Ted Cruz, 2011:

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

The second birthright citizenship was upheld, MAGA started talking about:

Sterilization requirements for women.
Visa denials for pregnant women.
ICE targeting pregnant women.

So when they tell you they’re pro-life and pro-women, it’s all bullshit.

Republicans + the media pressed Janet Reno to appoint a special counsel to investigate a failed land deal the Clintons got into *before* he was President. Trump is negotiating deals AS PRESIDENT with foreign nations that *directly* benefit his kids and it's crickets

[Wajahat Ali @WajahatAli]

Alito's father was an Italian immigrant.

Or a "birth tourist" according to Alito himself.

[Jake Sherman @JakeSherman]

they did that already. Democrats and Republicans passed a housing bill. it got massive bipartisan support. Trump hasn't signed it

“You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American.” —Ronald Reagan

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

Birthright Citizenship is poised to become the next Roe v. Wade: A rallying cry for the GOP bent on revoking human rights. People claiming victory today should know that the Supreme Court gave Trump a roadmap to destroy it.

The idea that you could abandon the settled constitutional doctrine of birthright citizenship with an *executive order* is particularly absurd, this was barely even a proper case at all.

The president is going to change citizenship with a memo? Really?

[Chili Dog @RobertJMolnar]

dude you were born in Canada

[Chief Cheeto @ChiefCheet0]

Ted Cruz was born in Calgary, Canada. His father was a Cuban immigrant. He became an American citizen through the exact birthright citizenship framework he is calling a ‘travesty’ today. Rafael Edward Cruz is a product of the policy he wants to dismantle. The ladder is pulled up. The door is closed. Ted is safely inside.

This weekend I’m having huevos rancheros in my district. Then visit the Simon Wiesenthal Center. Grab some rugelach at Canter’s deli. Stroll diverse Venice Beach. Have pho for dinner. And hug my kids and kiss my wife, all of whom have yellow skin and slanted eyes.

I love America
