Exactly this. The word "sovereign" in their bullshit gives the whole game away. The 14th Amendment is a sovereign act. Regardless of any history of "allegiance" as a sovereign's expectation for citizenship, *the 14th Amendment states the opposite explicitly.*

After years of research, Daphna Renan & I are thrilled to announce preorders of SUPREMACY. Why is US democracy so broken? One reason is we've wrongly accepted that 9 justices have the final say over the Constitution. This book traces how that happened—& how we can reclaim power to govern ourselves.

A lot of people live in NYC. And a lot of those people want to fight for our democracy.
Text of Frank O'Hara's Poem ["Lana Turner has collapsed!"]
HBD, Frank O'Hara! At the risk of being basic, this is an absolute banger and you should memorize it.
Every I.C.E. victim in these clips is a U.S. citizen.
These are the Kavanaugh Stops™️ that that human frat paddle assured us would last only momentarily and cause only minor, if any, inconvenience. All lies.
Rule of Law is dead and buried. There is no coming back from this. Sorry, folks.
Ha! It is!!! I just got over being embarrassed in the theater years ago. 🤣
Well, the often poor theatrical quality is part of the embarrassment. It's not usually a "good" production. But it's important and, when I can get over myself enough to admit sentiment, stirring.
I find protesting incredibly exposing and embarrassing.
Do it anyway.
No kings!
News --> More than 100 Jewish faculty and staff members at Harvard write an open letter saying Trump's attacks on the university, done in the name of fighting "antisemitism," are actually contrary to the interests of Jewish people:
