Angleton has historically had a pretty good softball team. This year, they're better than usual. Should be a good series.

SCOTUS could also rule that birthright citizenship isn't guaranteed in the Constitution, agree with the original interpretation of the 14th, and end both questions with one ruling. Then, they'd have to specify that even illegal immigrants are granted certain rights of habeas corpus, and issue some type of ruling on minimal standards as it relates to current immigration law. No Amendments necessary, and no major changes to current law. While unpopular with the Left, it would be the cleanest way out for the Court and the country. I'm gonna' sit back with my popcorn and watch the show.

@BMTSoulja1 do you play dominoes?

Not exactly. Astros pitching is in the top 5 of the AL in quality start category. Have 18 quality starts. League leader has 21. Houston still is in top 5 in AL in team ERA with 3.51 (up from a 3.20 a week ago which was 3rd). 2nd in league in opponent OBA at .216 and leads the league in WHIP at 1.15. Tied for league lead in strikeouts with 372. The bats have definitely improved over the last 3 weeks. Astros have brought the team batting average from .204 to now .250, which puts them 6th in the AL. They have improved their slugging percentage greatly from a dismal .323 to now .376 which is 6th in the league. Have an OPS of .700 which is top 5. Also is top 5 in OBP (.323) As for the division, only the Athletics have a better batting average (.259) and Rangers have a better ERA (3.34). Astro pitching has been their strength for the first 40 games (although have fallen a bit the last 6 games) while the hitting has really started to come on. If the hitting continues to trend upward and the pitching keeps it's top 5 status like it has all season so far, Houston will be right there at the top of the division. Like you said, still plenty of baseball to play.

Almost came back but no. They are in lack of consistant starting pitching. 7-5 loss to Royals. Still early.

Not only that, but undocumented/illegal immigrants are not eligible for service in the U.S. military as they are not ‘under the jurisdiction’ of the U.S. So, how can their children be…? In case of war, draft the kids against the parent’s country? Riddle me that Batman liberals. 😁 (On a side note, I’d be curious how many illegal immigrants actually sign up for Selective Service as the law requires. If they don’t, they aren’t eligible to stay in country. It’s grounds for immediate removal. However, why they have to sign up when they can’t serve is a mystery to me. Another tracking mechanism I presume.)

Upon reading the amicus briefs for the case ‘Trump vs. CASA’, and knowing that 5 of the Justices have expressed concerns about the overreach of national injunctions from District Court judges, I now believe the Administration will win on the merits of removing the injunctions. How it will be worded for equal treatment will be interesting. I also believe the second issue—automatic birthright citizenship (so to speak)—is in serious jeopardy based on SCOTUS own precedent, historical references, and numerous case laws. The issue would then be up to the Legislature to craft a law that dealt with children who have already been given citizenship prior to a ruling. For any other geeks interested in this sort of stuff, the entire briefs SCOTUS is reviewing before Thursday are in the below link. Really fascinating if you’re interested in the real history and some civics of our government. The link will also be the one that provides live feeds during the hearing. SCOTUS doesn’t allow televised hearings. So, you’ll see written feeds of questions/answers/descriptions of emotions/etc. You won’t have to rely on biased news coverage either way. [Hidden Content]

Property tax in general is not fair. However, it’s a price to pay to avoid a state income tax. Adjusted corporate tax could help supliment.

I did learn that a very significant area coach interviewed for this position. I highly doubt he will take the job, but did interview. -
