Where is @usconstamendi.bsky.social when we need it? Now that the Scotus has ruled me a dead letter on everything but incorporation, at least gimme something to incorporate. I'm bored!

It's too bad @heritage.bsky.social got the "Heritage" name first. I was very much looking forward to hearing from that other group of the same name why Jose Ibarra, an illegal alien, should be tried for murder by a court in the United States that supposedly has no jurisdiction over him.

'Litigation is a certainty': Trump's call to end birthright citizenship would face a mountain of opposition An executive order would kick-start a legal fight that could lead to a Supreme Court ruling.

I prevent certain people from *holding* state or federal office, but don't preclude anyone from *running* for it. If Donald Duck can run for President in Michigan, so can Donald Trump.

Is the Supreme Court seriously going to disqualify Trump? I'm giving it a 10% chance.

Do I disqualify Trump, or anyone else, from office or did Congress amputate Section 3?

That would surely be the worst solution politically, but it would be a guilty pleasure getting taken so hyper-literally. After all, I only said the guy can't *be* President, not that no one can *vote* for unconstitutional Presidents, nyah nyah nyah nyah.
