The Morning Report — 7/ 1 /26

Good morning kids. Of course the top story is the utterly devastating if not sadly unsurprising SCOTUS decision upholding the complete bastardization of the 14th Amendment. If I want to be charitable I'd say that Roberts' and Barrett's lives were directly threatened by the usual Democrat/Leftist terrorists. Either that or they were paid off from the same funders of the aforementioned terrorists. But screw that as their duty is to uphold and defend the Constitution, same as it always has been throughout their careers as jurists. It may just be that they made a purely political decision to not rock the boat and let the cancerous rot that has been destroying this nation and its institutions for much of its history, including the very institution that they are a part of. When President Trump first announced that he was issuing an executive order banning birthright citizenship I had a feeling of dread that it would not survive the ultimate challenge at SCOTUS, and foolishly as time went on, I still held out hope that sanity would prevail. So much for that delusion, The great Clarence Thomas' brilliant dissent notwithstanding.

“The Court today takes the extraordinary step of holding facially unconstitutional the President’s Order excluding from citizenship the children of foreign temporary visitors and illegal aliens,” Thomas writes: In doing so, the Court adds to the sad history of the Fourteenth Amendment, which was designed and understood to secure equal rights for the freed blacks but has instead been repurposed for political projects that the Reconstruction Congress did not support. Because many potential applications of the President’s Order are consistent with the original public meaning of the Citizenship Clause, I respectfully dissent. [Emphasis added]

Of course, one does not have to be one of if not America's greatest jurists and legal minds ever to serve in any court to know how completely insane this decision was. All one has to do is know the most rudimentary facts about how and why the 14th Amendment was enacted as well as to be able, and willing, to read and understand plain English What happened yesterday was yet another jackboot to the head of America as founded, as it lays prostrate on the ground after decades of curb-stomping by the Democrats and those whose complicity and inaction allow them to get away with it.

And the President nailed it with this observation:

“I would like to congratulate President Xi, and the Great Country of China, on their massive Birthright Citizenship WIN!” Trump declared via his Truth Social platform.

The court’s decision protects, for now, the practice of “birth tourism,” which is used by many wealthy Chinese nationals who travel to the United States to give birth to their children.

And if I still want to engage in delusion, there are a few Pollyannas out there as well:

Vice President JD Vance argued Tuesday that there is a “big silver lining” in the divided Supreme Court ruling striking down President Trump’s executive order outlawing birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants and tourists. “I know a lot of conservatives, Laura, certainly the people that I’m talking to, that you’re talking to, are extremely disappointed in this, but I do actually think there’s a really big silver lining here, and that’s the simple fact that a lot of legal experts expected this case to go the wrong direction by seven to two, or even eight to one,” Vance said in an interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham. “The fact that this case was a 5-to-4 decision effectively means that the concept of birthright citizenship, which is an absurdity to the 14th Amendment, that concept is hanging by a thread,” the vice president argued during his appearance on “The Ingraham Angle.” . . . “What I take from [the ruling] is, yes, we’ve got to fix the immigration system even more, we have to be even more aware of who’s coming into our country to make sure that they’re not benefiting from this atrocious Supreme Court ruling,” Vance said, adding, “but it also means that we have to keep fighting … because we actually have an opportunity to reverse this decision.” The vice president further argued that the high court’s “major, major mistake” might invite pregnant foreign nationals “to come here quite literally on a vacation, give birth, and then all of a sudden the child and their family have the full benefits of American citizenship.” “It’s just a preposterous ruling, and the absurdity of that outcome suggests why the Supreme Court should have went the other way.”

Yeah, we have an opportunity to reverse this? I'm sure future POTUS Titty Caca Ocasio Cortez will get right on that by packing the court with 19 or more Maoists! 250 years was a good run, I guess. If we make it to 500 or even 1,000 we'll probably be where England is, the irony of course is that that is the nation we rebelled against in the first place.

So, at what point do we take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing end them?
Or do we doom ourselvelves forever to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune unto death?

Have a good day,

• One ruling declared it within the president’s authority to interpret the word “temporary” as the opposite of “permanent” with regard to migrants who have been permitted to live within the U.S. for what is understood to be a finite period. He can order their removal. (Good!) A separate ruling, on the other hand, affirmed automatic American citizenship to babies born to migrants who have illegally entered the country. (Bad!) Yet a third ruling deemed it legal for states to count voter ballots that arrive after Election Day, thus rendering the whole concept of “Election Day” void. (Very bad!)
