So SCOTUS overturns the 14th amendment, strips citizenship from millions of Americans, all conveniently just in time to stop them from voting in the 2026 election
NEW: The Supreme Court will once again consider the legality of Trump's attack on birthright citizenship, this time (likely) on the merits.

Interesting proposal, allow me to make a counter one:
Anyone with over $1 billion in net worth is so detached from the struggles of normal people that for all intents and purposes they are no longer human, and therefore, it should not be a crime if you kill them

I don't care how loyal the admiral is to the Trump administration, no way a career officer is gonna fall on his sword for an alcoholic Fox News host who is gonna be his boss for max three more years
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?
LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

Senator Kelly is correct.
Plus a Public Service Announcement:
KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

If he's suggesting a no-fly zone over Venezuela, the only way to enforce a no-fly zone is to shoot down any aircraft that violates the no-fly zone, and while these guys love committing war crimes, I think that might be a step too far even for them

Keep in mind that white American males shot and killed countless Americans including many children, and no one ever did a thing but protect their right to do it again.

The reality, of course, is that Miller and a significant portion of Trump’s base are the ones who failed to assimilate to America’s post-WWII culture of multi-racial democracy & religious pluralism…and they are now using their power to destroy that once dominant (and still popular) American culture.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Miller grew up in Los Angeles and every third generation immigrant kid whose grandparents came from Armenia/Iran/Korea etc. is now identical to WASPiest of kids at The Americana Mall, so not only is this horribly racist but he's witnessed first hand how well immigrants successfully assimilate

McConaughey had maybe 7 minutes of screen time in Wolf of Wall Street and I think he deserved a best supporting actor nomination for his work in the film more than Jonah Hill did because man does he steal the whole movie with this Eddie Van Halen guitar solo of a scene youtu.be/tnZx-rfIgwY?...
