  1. John Eastman: Alas, when it comes to anything related to Trump, there are very few honest scholars. Instead of acknowledging the Supreme Court’s limited, actual holding in Wong Kim Ark, they will point to dicta in which the Court’s majority falsely claimed that the Citizenship Clause codified the old English common law rule known as jus soli—that anyone born on the king’s soil owed perpetual allegiance to the king. They will overlook that our Declaration of Independence was an explicit and eloquent repudiation of jus soli, stating in its closing paragraph that “these United Colonies…are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown.” They will overlook that Congress did not view Wong Kim Ark as mandating automatic citizenship for everyone born on U.S. soil when, a quarter century later, it extended citizenship to Native Americans pursuant to its power under the Naturalization Clause, an act that would have been superfluous if Wong Kim Ark had already settled the matter that everyone born in the U.S., including Native Americans, were automatically citizens. And they will overlook that when a 1920s guest worker program ended in the wake of the Great Depression and more than a million Mexican workers were repatriated to Mexico, the repatriation included their U.S.-born children. No one at the time claimed that the children were U.S. citizens. https://americanmind.org/salvo/birthright-citizenship-game-on/
  2. Let’s not forget his support and direction of torturing animals, dogs particularly.
  3. I like the idea of holding a National Duals before NCAAs. How would it be formatted, two days, eight team, four duals first day, two the next morning, with the championship that evening? One weekend doesn’t seem too disruptive and duals are so much easier to watch than tournaments.
  4. Let’s see your gesture for “I give my heart to you.”
  5. Literal Nazi, what a joke. Where is that? If it was Germany those guys would be arrested and jailed. It’s not a version I’ve seen before and doubt Elon had, either. Those are not Nazis, just modern day trouble makers out to get attention, as are the people claiming Elon gave a Nazi salute.
  6. You got that right, they are guys with Nazi flags. They are not Nazis. Show us Hitler doing it.
  7. No, I’m not joking. You’re just making stuff up.
  8. With his statement, “I give my heart to you.” and the fact that the Nazi salute didn’t involve first putting your hand over your heart, these claims are nonsensical.
  9. Federal employees have to show up full time now. Until they’re fired.
  10. Houston drivers on snow and slick is catastrophic.
  11. Congressman Troy Nehls says Trump solved climate change in one day, “we have snow in Houston today.”
  12. While everybody was celebrating, it was noticeable that Barron and Melania were enjoying it as much as anybody. Maybe more.
  13. It was enough to prompt Biden to offer a pardon. But it won’t protect him from State or civil suits. It actually puts him in a box. He can be brought in for further questioning, under oath, without the ability to claim 5th Amendment rights against self incrimination.
  14. Fauci? A congressional referral was sent to the DoJ for perjury regarding statements he made in reference to his support, direction, and funding of the Gain of Function research that spawned Covid 19. And his monetary gains from the response he directed.
  15. That’s right. Covid 19 was engineered and created to be deadly, it didn’t evolve from natural mutation. The common cold is also a coronavirus and people still die from it every year. But it is neither feasible nor desirable to develop a vaccine or inoculate for it. Immunology and nature need to take their course. Even the early strains of Covid 19 weren’t very deadly for healthy people, but combined with the wrong medical procedures, were deadly to the already compromised. My instruction in microbiology and immunology was a long time ago, but I recognized that everything that was pushed by the government , from masking, to shutdowns, to vaccinations, flew in the face of what we were taught. In fact, it closely resembled what was laid out in the Great Barrington Declaration. Which was shunned by the government and Pharma.
  16. Good find. From the discussions I’ve heard the presidential pardon doesn’t apply to State, lower court, or civil cases.
  17. Also pardoned are the ex-capitol police officers who have been perjuring their way through the J6 trials.
  18. I don’t know if it will come to bear, but the person taking a pardon can be called to testify in the matter at hand, cannot invoke 5th Amendment rights, and if found to be perjuring themself, be subject to those charges.
  19. Is this a conspiracy theory?
  20. Today feels like New Year’s. The country gets to turn the page, gets a restart. And there’s football.
  21. There are and there aren’t. As I understand it. There are federal laws that say illegals can be deported for sex crimes, this one said they shall be. As crazy as it sounds, there have been instances where they weren’t.
  22. Jake Tapper joins little Georgie Stepinawfulstuff.
  23. It’s likely that they are hearing the feedback on their ridiculous rantings in the earlier hearings. I expect them to try to formulate their last gasp for Kennedy and Gabbard.
