NFRA says Kamala can't run for president because of Dred Scott decision.
www.independent.co.uk
The National Federation of Republican Assemblies (NFRA) has cited the infamous 1857 Dred Scott Supreme Court decision, which stated that enslaved people weren’t citizens, to argue that Vice President Kamala Harris is ineligible to run for president according to the Constitution.
The group also challenged the right of Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley to appear on Republican primary ballots.
The Republican group’s platform and policy document noted that “The Constitutional qualifications of Presidential eligibility” states that “No person except a natural born Citizen, shall be eligible, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President.”
The same document included former President Donald Trump’s running mate Ohio Senator JD Vance on a list of preferred candidates for vice president.
The document and the citing of the Dred Scott decision were initially noted by lawyer Andrew Fleischman on X, formerly Twitter.
The group, which adopted the document during their last national convention held between October 13 and 15 last year, goes on to argue in the document that a natural-born citizen has to be born in the US to parents who are citizens when the child is born, pointing to the thinking of Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas.

Manchin already came out in favor of the Harris ticket when she picked Walz. He said something like looking forward to them bringing back normalcy to DC. Maybe Sinema looking for some grift/attention? Gabbard for sure, but everyone already knows she isn't a Dem.

Definitely seems like a great use of money for a campaign that is cash strapped

Solemnity is not something he understands. But the relative of Sgt Gee is also looking pretty chipper and sharing a hand gesture not generally associated with grief or remembrance…

I think this is a good campaign strategy for Trump and Vance. I hope they pursue it very publicly.NFRA says Kamala can't run for president because of Dred Scott decision.

Here's hoping Kamala makes full use of the Obamas continuing to subtly ridicule Trump on the campaign trail.
That strategy will distract Trump and elicit his continuation of lunatic rants that do not address the concerns of American families...

Three of them are making that gesture. Are they longhorn fans? Metal heads? What gives? What's the context here?
There lots of theories.

Gee was one of the troops killed by the suicide attacks during the Afghanistan evacuation in 2021.

The level of transparency that Trump absolutely doesn't care about the soldiers killed in Afghanistan and is just using them as a political prop makes my blood boil.
That's the thing I hate about Trump most. How often he does things that send me into an internal rage.

Why is a private citizen allowed to place a wreath in a ceremony like that at Arlington National Cemetery?
