Preamble of Senate Resolution 402, which expressed formal regret for the revocation of women’s citizenship under the 1907 Act.

The remaining discriminatory portions of the Expatriation Act of 1907 were finally addressed by the Nationality Act of 1940. In 2014, the U.S. Senate passed Senate Resolution 402, expressing formal regret for the revocation of women’s citizenship under the 1907 Act. /end

Ad advocating the Independent Citizenship for Married Women.

The Cable Act of 1922, also known as the Married Women’s Independent Nationality Act, largely repealed the 1907 Act, allowing most women to retain their citizenship. However, it still stripped citizenship from women who married “aliens ineligible for citizenship” (primarily Asian immigrants). /5

In 1911, Harriot Stanton Blatch petitioned the court for naturalization in order to regain her American citizenship, which she had lost due to the Expatriation Act of 1907. Blatch was the daughter of pioneering activist Elizabeth Cady Stanton and a suffragist who played a critical role in modernizing the women's suffrage movement in the early 20th century.

The law did not apply to American men. They retained their citizenship regardless of their spouse’s nationality. The Supreme Court upheld the Act, ruling that while the government could not strip citizenship involuntarily, a woman “voluntarily” entered marriage knowing the legal consequences. /4

Women who married non-citizens were also barred from certain government jobs and could be subject to deportation as “enemy aliens” during wartime. Children born abroad to U.S. citizens were required to record their intention to remain citizens at age 18 and take an oath of allegiance at age 21. /3

Couples stand in line to obtain their marriage licenses in this photograph, ca. 1915 and 1920. The 1907 Expatriation Act would have affected people trying to get married during this time period — though the couples depicted in this photo were not necessarily affected by the Expatriation Act.

The Act was rooted in the legal principle that a wife’s legal identity was tied to her husband’s, and it applied even if the couple continued to reside in the U.S. Because they were no longer U.S. citizens, these women lost the right to vote, even after the 19th Amendment passed in 1920. /2

Today in history, 1907: Congress passes the Expatriation Act, which stripped American-born women of their citizenship if they married a non-citizen. A woman had to adopt her husband’s nationality, effectively making her a stateless alien in her own country. /1

Trump Administration to Drop Defense of Law Firm Sanctions — The Wall Street Journal Justice Department plans to withdraw appeals defending punitive executive orders issued by the president, people familiar with the matter said

DOJ drops appeals in 4 cases against law firms who were victorious against Trump’s revengeful executive orders limiting security clearances, access to federal buildings and work for the government.
Judges ruled it was an abuse of executive power.

Rubio’s statement that Trump caved to Bibi’s demands.

Trump is a weak man. A coward. A draft dodger.
Yet, he thinks being a bully makes him appear strong.
He rapes little girls who can’t fight back. He never went to War, but he’ll kill our children who do.
He’s a snake.
Bibi is why we are bombing Iran.

This is unconscionable. Kash Patel needs to RESIGN NOW! Every damn day it’s something worse than the day before with this fucking administration.😡

The people who start wars never worry about their own kids fighting them.
Everyone else does.

I feel his anger. 💔
If the risk were equal, this war would not be happening.

U.S. Bishops Take On Trump At the Supreme Court: “Protect God-Given Human Dignity” The U.S. bishops have filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court calling Trump’s birthright citizenship order “immoral” and unconstitutional — a consequential legal action without recent parallel.

Pope Leo is a LEADER.
US Catholic bishops file brief w/ the court,calling Trump’s order on birthright citizenship “antithetical to church’s teaching”.
The Church speaks with one voice on fundamental human dignity.
“Children do nothing wrong by being born in the US.”

Peace President My Ass

The problem isn’t taking out Khamenei. He was heinous.

It’s that Trump does all this without Congressional approval.
He is now acting just like a Dictator.
What comes next?
He can’t bomb a new regime. That needs boots on ground.
Release all Epstein Files!

CIA assessed Khamenei would be replaced by hardline IRGC elements if killed.

But he did it anyway 👀

Graphic showing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene speaking at a podium with an American flag in the background. Overlaid text quotes her criticizing President Trump, saying he is a billionaire while many Americans are struggling with debt and cannot afford basic needs. The quote mentions generational frustration, rising national debt, concerns about Social Security, and says “We campaigned on America First. And this is NOT it.” Her name appears at the bottom.

I don’t agree with MTG much, but this part. 👇🏽

Thing is, the president has no such power. No such power exists in the Constitution. Elections were held during WWII.

In this thread watch President Bill Clinton say that Trump told him that he had great times over the years with Jeffrey Epstein.

Then watch Secretary Clinton as she finds out that Lauren Boebert broke committee rules and sent out pictures from the deposition to conservative YouTuber Benny Johnson.

So Israel dragged the US into this war by its nose. Our President is so weak that he couldn't tell Netanyahu to stand down and give peace a chance.

Trump Says War Could Last Weeks and Offers Contradictory Visions of New Regime

Or is it all part of his "National Emergency" plan?

Feb 26: Emergency order DRAFT circulating - fake "China interference 2020" to justify Nat. emergency, suspend mail-in voting, give Trump election control
Feb 28: Trump STARTS actual war with Iran
Now: War = REAL nat. emergency he can declare

Earlier, I was talking to friends about how there's a rift on the right.

The split's widening because of the illegal war Trump started, but it's also because of Epstein as well as a bitter rivalry between the America 1st v. MAGA sects.

Shouldn't we amplify & exploit this rift to help destroy them?
