I can't get over just how short sighted MAGA is... They give the president this power like it will never be used against them by the next Democrat president.

Funny thing is. Republicans allow their red-ass state legislatures to gerrymander their districts, while democrats act so high and nobel implementing their "non-partisan" commissions to "draw fair districts".

The house is forever skewed in favor of the right wing unless democrats play dirty and also gerrymander the shit out of those seats.

They tried in New York the last time the maps were redrawn. If Dems really wanted to gerrymander New York, they could likely win every single district.

The courts shot that one down, and now New York is just heavily favored to Dems. The House would be majority Dems right now if not for that alone.

They even made us memorize this one in grade school:

  1. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Note that this says nothing about having to be a citizen for this to apply to you, either. And while we're at it, see also this.

Well you see, congress isn't making a law, the executive branch is just doing blatantly illegal shit with impunity, because congress is full of spineless coward sellouts

The right of the people would be interpreted to be citizens 100% guaranteed.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

Traitors, all of them.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 1 day ago

But I thought they were only going after people in the country illegally, I thought they were okay with immigration as long as they followed legal processes (sarcasm)

Those who gain citizenship through unlawful means and endanger our national security will not maintain the benefits of being an American citizen

Lmao... Benefits? What exactly are those benefits? Not being on the receiving end of a bombing? Not having our country destabilized by a narcissist (we don't even get that benefit anymore). Having healthcare taken away? A secret police force take you away for wrongthink? Lol benefits of being an American....

[-] [email protected] 35 points 2 days ago

Bruh what do you mean the best American benefit is living in a 3rd world country while giving your taxes to hardworking billionaires who use it to control you and blowing up brown kids in the Middle East

Very true! I'm so ungrateful! :(

Well, you guys had a good run being a semi normal country. Now you're fucked.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago

semi normal

Extremely generous thank you for that.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago

No worries mate, you had a good run, all things come to an end and all that!. On a serious note I do empathise a bit for the normals among you. But as a recipient of some foreign policy freedom in the 80s by the USS new Jersey on Beirut, I wish I could be selective in whose face the leopards eat under this administration. Unfortunately I can't.

This administration is traitorous and needs to be removed immediately. They are enemies of the American people and the American States themselves.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It’s not just the administration. Every republican, and many democrats in congress anre also supporting this.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

So like anyone not in the party will be excluded from society?

I have three nationalities. Born in Argentina and was naturalized at 8 yrs old in the USA when my parents moved. Been living in Canada since 2000 and also a citizen. I am legally bound to declare taxes in the US, even if I never made a penny working there. Revoking citizenship is expensive and requires a lot of paperwork. Fuck you MAGA, fuck you Trump. Take my citizenship away, I'll gladly give it back. I'll save thousands per year not having to deal with your backwards ass-shit citizenship based tax laws.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

For most US citizens, losing citizenship means being stateless. Nobody will advocate for us when we're in CECOT

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I had PRC Citizenship, then got US citizenship, PRC doesn't do Dual Citizenship, so I lost that.

Idk what the fuck is gonna happen to me. I know like 10 words in Mandarin. I'm not quite fond of the CCP (fucking hate then), so no way they'll even want me, this just mean I'm stateless.

Perhaps being stateless makes it easier for me to drive to Canada and beg for asylum? Go to EU maybe?

I'm gonna be famous as an airport resident like these people

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Citizenship? I think you mean Party Membership.

I see her facial masks made of slaughtered-infants' baby fat are working well.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
