All right, live whatevering of Trump v. Barbara, the birthright citizenship case. Arguing for the bad guys is US Solitictor General John (voice is an immutable characteristic so let's show some respect) Sauer. For the plaintiffs it's ACLU legal director Cecillia Wang.

It does not matter if a Constitutionally protected right is popular. The whole point of rights is they always apply to people, including when—especially when—an individual example is unpopular. And the point of a Constitution is to have base laws that don't swing with a simple majority.

Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.

You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.

In less than 1 week, Trump wasted $11.3 BILLION of your taxpayer dollars on the Iran war.

Instead that money could have:

- Restored SNAP to 4 million Americans
- Established universal pre-K education
- Built 100,000 units of housing

Our priorities are warped.

Texas isn't a conservative state, it's a suppressed state! That's why they make it so hard for poor people and minorities to vote, they know we'd evict them with a quickness lol

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

He can say whatever he wants and issue whatever executive order he wants, but he has no legitimate power to actually do anything like this.

Panicked posts like this one give the impression that he can make good on his threats. He can't.
