We’ve had birth right citizenship for 157 years.
And, while Matt Walsh hates it, it takes only a few hours with an Ancestry subscription to find out it’s the only reason he is American.
Like nearly all Americans, within 2+ generations you’ll find that Matt’s relatives only became American by birthright citizenship.
They came from Ireland, Australia, England, Scotland and Austria.
Most of them *never* naturalized as citizens.
But their children born here became citizens.
“Ending birthright citizenship” isn’t about “illegals” if it was then Trump’s team would have had a more tailored argument and would have likely won today.
It’s fully kicking the ladder out from underneath you.
When people like Matt act as if they’ve got some right to the land of opportunity that you and your children don’t deserve.
The reality is, 80% of Americans today have ancestors who came to America and never naturalized between now and 1866.
And if you go back 2-4 generations in their family tree basically none of those relatives were in America.
Meaning they owe their own American status to the very policy they want to get rid of.
There is a hubris in thinking “just because my Grandparents were American we must have been American forever” when the only reason they were American is because of birthright citizenship.
Holy shit Mexico City right now 🤯….this is just to advance to the Round of 16 and I thought NYC was gonna burn when the Knicks won and that was nothing compared to this smh….our sports are nothing compared to the World Cup
Eddie Murphy may be the star of Coming to America (38 years today), but the movie gets hijacked effortlessly by Randy Watson and Sexual Chocolate.
The voice. The swagger. The all-time mic drop.
Here’s how the kid from “That’s My Momma” became a legend.
A first-of-its-kind analysis by The Intercept found that in the Army, women are more likely to be killed by their fellow service members than by enemy combatants, in a reversal of the threat soldiers are trained to face.
I'm always for being open about mental health, but important context is that Kean, as a state rep, voted against the New Jersey Paid Sick Leave Act, which established 40 hours of sick leave for employees a year.
Kean just took *4 months* of paid sick leave.
This is Trump watching Kamala Harris speak at the DNC which he swore he never watched.If you look next to him it’s none other than his Executive Assistant & the woman that supposedly will never leave him Natalie Harp typing out all his posts just like we thought.Lies Lies Lies
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was caught sneaking out of speaker Mike Johnson’s office.
A Supreme Court justice should not have a private meeting with the speaker of the house.
What were they talking about?
Alito is very obviously retiring, they just jumped the gun posting it. He will be replaced by a 30 year old Federalist society hack who will be on the bench for 40 years.
Again, the results of everyone's actions in 2016 will doom the country for decades and decades.
Crazy how when Janet Jackson speaks to you and hugs you, your credit score boosts!
Also, my health insurance rate dropped and this morning I noticed my hairline suddenly reimagined itself back into its righteous place.

This story is so insane and confounding.
She delivered the most artistically successful season in 75 years for Arena Stage Theater Company, brought in 8 million in enhancement, highest grossing gala in history, raised 3 million in foundation support and one back to back best production Helen Hayes Awards for the first time ever, and diversified the audiences.
All of the success does not trump fear of change, racism, or dirty politics.
Hana Sharif was pressured by the board to resign on the eve of opening night of a new American musical sure to be the next Broadway hit! Black excellence in Black women is under attack.
-Dr. Carla Hayden fired from Library of Congress
-Lisa Cook investigated with the attempt to remove her from the Federal Reserve
This is a Call to Action. Restitution must be paid. Let’s be clear this isn’t about the art created or the business generated because it belies those barometers of success. This is vindictive, cruel, and a reprehensible petty dirty trick power play. Shame on those who conspired against Hana Sharif
When something breaks, most of us replace it. At this Brooklyn repair cafe, volunteers are helping neighbors fix everything from lamps and jeans to vintage fans and old smartwatches for free. The events are part of a growing global movement to reduce waste, save money and bring back repair skills that many people say have been lost.
Extremely shameful that Kohen Wiley’s murder has not gained more attention. This baby was killed by the police, and nothing has been done, and it’s being swept under the rug.
If the Administration refuses to release body cam footage of the shooting of Alex Pretti, it is reasonable to assume that it shows he was shot by two United States Border Patrol Agents in cold blood while he was being beaten and kicked in the head by 8 agents and that he never drew his weapon, which he was legally authorized to have, but rather it was pulled from his waistband by an agent and Pretti was shot when he was unarmed.
Someone is leaking the SCOTUS decisions to the WH before they're released to the public.
There's a reason we have the Postmaster General suddenly talking about post marks and how mail might be delayed before it's post marked.
You mark my words. We are going to see mail held up and not post marked, until after the election in key races. They have already worked out how to cheat this decision.
Do not drop your vote in a pickup box. Take it into the post office wait in line and make them post mark it in front of you.
The plan, introduced to him by Curtis Yarvin, is to create a permanent underclass out of EVERY American and enslave us to the point government cameras are in our HOMES all to serve the rich oligarchs in Silicon Valley.
I never respond to attacks against Haitians by pointing to those of us supposedly “good ones” with degrees etc. People like Miller hate all of us; today he’s coming for domestic workers; tomorrow he’ll come for the doctors and lawyers. We all matter or none of us matter.
