Yup. I think that’s the motive behind Trump’s language. Every time he refers to undocumented immigrants as an “invading army” it’s to give his blatantly unconstitutional actions the pallor of being in line with the limitations to birthright citizenship established in the Wong Kim Ark SCOTUS ruling.

I believe the Trump DOJ may attempt to stretch the definition of “hostile occupation” beyond what the SCOTUS intended in 1898.

No, the Wong Kim Ark SCOTUS decision of 1898 referred to US territory being occupied (ie The Mexican Army invades and occupies San Diego. A child born of a Mexican soldier and his wife in occupied San Diego would not be a natural born US citizen). casetext.com/case/united-...

“Occupation” is clearly a specious argument but Thomas and Alito have been bought and paid for. I have no confidence in handicapping how they would rule.

The Supreme Court precedent is if you are born under “occupied” territory, you can’t claim birthright citizenship. Watch Trump Justice Department argue US cities are under “occupation” by undocumented immigrants. How will the Trump appointed SCOTUS respond to this argument?

Translation: “I’m going to force Ukraine to concede territory to Russia and will never let them join NATO.”

Went for it on 4th down and got rewarded every time for betting on themselves.

😂 so transparent

There’s a reason the Rams traded him. So much talent but so turnover prone. Thought he got over it this year. Maybe not.

Most fun NFL game I’ve ever attended live: Rams/Chiefs in 2018. 105 points. Goff was QB in that game too. Let this be the first NFL playoff game to top 100 combined points.

“Rams Goff” reveals himself at the worst possible time.

When will DFS start?

Worst possible time imaginable to shut it down. Rick Caruso was already blaming Mayor Bass for this on day 1 of the fires when the hydrants were dry in the Palisades. Is his argument valid?

Looks like it was packed with fireworks.

Trump is clearly calling for closing the border between Texas and the United States.

Will be interesting to see how JJ uses him. Would definitely be an upgrade over Rui as a small ball center.

Bottom line: starting Knecht means AR has to guard the other team’s best perimeter player. It only works if Dalton is scoring 20+. Starting Max allows Austin to guard the secondary perimeter player and we don’t need 20+ from Max to win. It just makes more sense unless DK becomes automatic from deep.

LeBron and Steph are still the biggest draws in the league. No MJ passing the torch to Kobe yet. The NBA will have massive shoes to fill when they hang it up.

Can I show you my NFL Sunday Ticket bill vs my NBA League Pass bill and you explain with sport has the higher monetary cost to follow?

How far did we fall in the draft with this Raiders win? From 2nd pick to 6th?

The Raiders and Jags are kinda made for each other. Spider-Man meme.

They are currently the 5th seed in the West…

This lineup is working! Christie filling the Vando hole realistically well.

When you are playing 12 deep, it means you don’t have 9 reliable players.

Can’t wait!

And yet, a 30 yard pass wins the game.

Roughing the football!

I mean, I want my Raiders to lose for the draft pick but that was an atrocious call.

Things that make me sad for $100 Alex
