Off-Topic Thread 'The Supreme Court must be destroyed'

Because it is no longer a court. I mean, it's not even trying any more. This is, by my count, seven lower court orders they have stayed without comment, all in favor of Trump and all without comment. It's even worse than Trump v. United States. That at least purported to be law.

1. In our system, judicial decisions come with explanations. That's how our law has worked since the Pilgrims landed. Because courts are supposed to announce rules that other courts follow. They are supposed to inform the people who are subject to the court's jurisdiction what they can and can't do under...

I remember thinking, when Trump had the president of Venezuela in the White House, that they were both just trolling the country and were actually bringing him back. That is Trump's memo. He says the most idiotic shit control us, and then does the opposite.

"Present-day Americans feel secure in their citizenship: they are free to speak up for any cause, oppose their government, marry a person of any background, and live where they choose—at home or abroad. Denaturalization and denationalization are more often associated with twentieth-century authoritarian regimes. But there was a time when American-born and naturalized foreign-born individuals in the United States could be deprived of their citizenship and its associated rights. Patrick Weil examines the twentieth-century legal procedures, causes, and enforcement of denaturalization to illuminate an important but neglected dimension of Americans' understanding of sovereignty and federal authority: a citizen is defined, in part, by the parameters that could be used to revoke that same citizenship.

The Sovereign Citizen begins with the Naturalization Act of 1906, which was intended to prevent realization of citizenship through fraudulent or illegal means. Denaturalization—a process provided for by one clause of the act—became the main instrument for the transfer of naturalization authority from states and local courts to the federal government. Alongside the federalization of naturalization, a conditionality of citizenship emerged: for the first half of the twentieth century, naturalized individuals could be stripped of their citizenship not only for fraud but also for affiliations with activities or organizations that were perceived as un-American. (Emma Goldman's case was the first and perhaps best-known denaturalization on political grounds, in 1909.) By midcentury the Supreme Court was fiercely debating cases and challenged the constitutionality of denaturalization and denationalization. This internal battle lasted almost thirty years. The Warren Court's eventual decision to uphold the sovereignty of the citizen—not the state—secures our national order to this day. Weil's account of this transformation, and the political battles fought by its advocates and critics, reshapes our understanding of American citizenship."

How Trump’s Executive Order Contradicts Birthright Citizenship​

A Discussion with Anna O. Law, Julie Novkov, and Carol Nackenoff

Published by New Books Network
2025
Birthright citizenship is established in the first sentence of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution – yet Donald Trump’s recent Executive Order 14160 denies some types of birthright citizenship. The Order contradicts over a century of American law, legal practice, and constitutional interpretation. Three groups have opposed the order as unconstitutional and challenged it in...

Yes. To me it seems like they are juvenile insults that don't really add to the conversation. Isn't that why you wanted the guy banned for saying libtard? or did you want him banned because he is a trump supporter?
