Yeah, he didn’t know what those numbers meant. He was just casually walking down the beach and saw these shells arranged in this pattern, thought they were so beautifully arranged, snapped a pic, and posted it on the internet. He’s well known for posting nature scenes. Give me a break. Does anyone really believe him? If he didn’t know they were bad, why did he take them down? Comey is a criminal and should already be in jail for lying to congress.

I doubt there is anything that can be done - but for him to say he knew it was political but didn't understand the meaning or possible meaning is ridiculous....OR proves he was a horrible FBI director.... [Hidden Content]

How the Executive Branch got this so different than the original readings is beyond me. I read exactly as @tvc184 has explained. Best explanation I have seen without all the legalese in the briefs. In most cases, the interpretation closest in time to the original is the most accurate. Whether SCOTUS rules this way or not is debatable. I think they’re going to need more time to rule on the actual merits. I wouldn’t be surprised if they just negated the previous injunctions, put one of their own on, and asked for further review before judging the merits. They have limited time before their break, and this is a very big decision. On a side note, it would be typical if it was just some clerks way back when who decided it was too hard to keep track of everything, so they just started making everyone—except for a very limited few—be automatic citizens, and it just continued without anyone really questioning until recently.

Here's a more detailed explanation: Judicial Review: The court then reviews the legality of the detention and can release the person if the detention is found unlawful. Importance: Habeas corpus is a cornerstone of the rule of law, protecting individuals from unlawful detention and ensuring their right to due process. Examples: It can be used to challenge the legality of an arrest, a conviction, or even a mental confinement. Historical Significance: Habeas corpus has deep roots in English common law and is considered a crucial protection against government overreach. Limitations: While generally protected, habeas corpus can be suspended in cases of rebellion or invasion, but only in the most exceptional circumstances, and only if the public safety requires it. Definition: Habeas corpus is a legal writ (a formal written order) that compels authorities to produce a person they are holding and to justify their confinement. Purpose: Its primary purpose is to ensure that no one is held in custody without a legal basis. Process: When a writ of habeas corpus is filed, a judge can order the custodian of the detained person to bring them before the court.

So you understand that if habeas corpus is suspended, NOBODY has rights to due process, right? When habeas corpus is suspended, the executive (or any branch) can throw you in jail for anything, without charges, without a conviction…. Nothing. And you have zero rights until “the invasion” is over. Speak out against the supreme ruler? Imprisoned with no rights. No trial, no bond, no indictment-just imprisoned. A “political prisoner” if you will. The last time it was done was during the civil war when Washington DC was in danger of being overrun during the civil war.

Spin that top! CNN headlines said b that Trump’s “fiction” is now true. For “months” Trump has been talking about egg prices. I guess technically it’s true because he’s been an office a little over three months…. 🤣🤣🤣 Egg prices nationwide fell by almost 13%, the largest monthly decline in 41 years. The USDA shows a national average of $3.30 a dozen for large white eggs and down 69¢ in one week. Look at the CNN headlines… Fiction “has suddenly” become reality. 😂😂😂 [Hidden Content]

We’ve had the spring game, so there’s at least something to talk about. What do ya’ll think? I saw some positive signs. Looks like we’ve got something to work with, and plenty to work on. I think the defense will be better this year. No idea on the offense, though it’s hard not to observe that our o-line will miss Jackson Christian. Any word on whether we’ll participate in 7-on-7 this year?

You bring up a good point. They wrote it anyway? In other words, if it was written and ratified, there was a reason. So let’s look at the at the citizenship clause. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States Note that it does not say that all persons born or naturalized in the United States are citizens. They added the phrase, “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof” Like your question, they wrote it anyway? Was it merely a meaningless afterthought or did it mean something? In the Supreme Court ruling in Elk, they said that the phrase certainly meant something. Basically it was who is your allegiance to or which country were you a part of? John Elk was born in US territory on American soil but since he was part of a recognized Indian Nation, so even though born in the US, was not a citizen. It took an act of Congress, not the Constitution or Supreme Court ruling, to make Native Americans, American. So: 1. Was the phrase about being under the jurisdiction thereof just wasted words or did it have meaning? 2. Why didn’t the clause simply say, “all persons born in the United States are citizens”? That surely would have ended any debate. 3. Looking at the Constitution and the meaning of words, just like you brought up, why did the Supreme Court deny John Elk citizenship? If it was so clear, it should have been an easy ruling for Elk, not against him. 4. If it was so clear cut, why did it take decades later for the US Congress to make Native Americans all Americans as birthright citizens by federal law?

Did Nederland even get a hit. Could have given a bunt single in the 1st. Winning run in 6th should have been an error on 3rd baseman. I can’t recall any other hits. Baseball is funny, got outplayed but won the game. Their bats better come alive or they will lose this series. They did play very good defense and the young pitcher is tough I have to give them a big positive for that, however the offense was not good. I have watched all their playoff games and the defense has been pretty darn good except for the loss to Montgomery. The offense has been weaker than well water

Even though my team was on the losing end, this is the kind of game I like to watch….a pitching duel. I think Garcia saved the day for the Rangers with some excellent catches. CF made a heckuva catch also. For my Stros, you won’t see a SS play any better than Peña’s sliding grab over 2nd base, turn and fire. Unbelievable.

Wow had this Kid chose the other Beaumont High school we wouldnt be having this conversation. Or anywhere but BU. Old BISD rule used to punish any athlete bypassing or leaving the West-End school to attend BU would cost you a year of Eligbility. Just an observation back in the day footbal great Christian Michael was a rock throw from Ozen chose to attend the West-End school nobody cried file. Many other examples as well. If the Jones kid bypassed the other school what Coach would want that kid on his team. Out of character for a coach to hinder/hurt the opportunities of a player because he didnt chose to play in your program. JMO... -
