this is insane
I’d like to pay a reporter to ask Trump how it feels to wipe his ass with the Constitution. I’d think it would be coarse and unpleasant, but he keeps doing it.
Ill just stick with Charmin or whatever.
Trump will then happily show his new line of merchandise. One is his "We The People" line of toilet paper. There's also his "Smooth Criminal" line, extra soft toilet paper with the entire criminal law printed on it.
The supreme court did not give the OK. They said that you have to sue individually or as a class action and kicked it back down to the lower court. And several orgs are currently petitioning for class action status.
Edit: they also said courts can't issue nationwide injunctions, they have to be narrower.
When talking about birthright citizenship, how do you get narrower than nationwide injunctions?
What the Republicans in the Supreme Court seem to be arguing is that the president can ignore the law as long as the people affected can't afford a lawsuit.
Iirc, the way it'll work out is if you're born in one of the 22 blue states with an order, you get to be a citizen. If you're born in a red state, though, you're fucked. It's a very strange issue to patchwork, though, even stranger than abortion.
The Supreme Court hasn't actually decided if it's illegal or not. This is just about injunctions to stop Trumps EO.
That being said, it's also a federal issue so you couldn't get a patchwork like abortion.
Unless I'm missing something?
The news was talking about the patchwork, and yeah, you'd think it's a federal issue but the injunctions can only apply where the lawsuits were, hence the 22 states that sued. At least for now.
At least that's my understanding. It likely can't stay in this limbo for long, anyway. Will this court be corrupt enough to say it's constitutional when it's clearly not? I really hope not.
The Supreme Court onky stated the injunctions must be "narrower", but didn't provide specifications as to what that means (to my understanding/recollection). They could still say a statewide injunction is too broad.
But yeah, I agree, I don't know how you have a patchwork of injunctions on birthright citizenship. It just sounds do stupid. Either it is or isn't legal, and you probably should figure it out before allowing it to affect anyone.
But the Republicans on the Supreme Court clearly don't care about the law anymore.
On his first day back in office, Trump signed an executive order federal agencies to refuse to recognize the citizenship of children born in the United States who do not have at least one parent who is an American citizen or lawful permanent resident, also called a "green card" holder.
So is this retroactive? Do states that are not challenging take effect in 30 days? Who the fuck knows. Make sure to do jack shit to stop all of this.
