  1. How do you know now? Profile much? You must live in a very small world. My daughter-in-law is a naturalized citizen from Costa Rica. She’s as much a citizen as you or me. She even served in the U.S. Navy. Probably has given more of herself to this country than you. She happens to be very proud to be an American. If you read any of the articles I linked to, you’d have a lot better idea of what’s going on. But hey…carry on…
  2. Lake Creek 2 La Porte 0 Lake Creek wins series 2-1
  3. Sen. Jacob Howard, who wrote the Fourteenth's Citizenship Clause believed the same thing as Bingham as evidenced by his introduction of the clause to the US Senate as follows: [T]his amendment which I have offered is simply declaratory of what I regard as the law of the land already, that every person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons. *Copied from the second link in OP thread above. SCOTUS got this wrong according to the author of the Amendment. IMHO, a fix would be to clarify ‘anyone born here to parent/parents with legal standing to be in the United States or its provinces or territories’. This would follow the author of the Amendment’s original intent that was voted on, and would be a compromise that works in the best interest of the public. While it wouldn’t stop rich people from having ‘birthing vacations’ in the U.S., it would stop anchor babies & many issues with immigration & family separation. Those who are wealthy becoming citizens aren’t a drain on the public till, and the number is very small. They could also claim dual citizenship if desired. Those who are already considered citizens would remain as such. Personally, I think SCOTUS may uphold the injunctions temporarily, but request the issue be developed deeper for a more thorough review before a final ruling. This issue needs to be addressed. @tvc184

  5. Interesting reads. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] Thoughts?
  6. Here is a link for all. It’s actually a Snopes investigation link. Matches the numerous other NBC exclusive interview stories I’ve read previously. This story was originally an NBC exclusive. Others have picked it up from there as was said they wanted to do to raise awareness. As it’s been picked up, it’s morphed somewhat. Especially on social media. [Hidden Content]
  7. You need to provide a link. The original story from February—of which there were many links—didn’t have this added. As the parents, congressional members & their legal counsel have stated, they would do whatever it took to raise awareness to try to get her back for treatment. This appears to be part of that exercise. By the way, are you talking about the same child even? The girl with cancer from Texas was 10 I believe. You may be getting your stories mixed up.
  8. Sad part is—besides the child having cancer—is if they hadn’t illegally entered the country, been ordered to immediately leave years ago for some reason, and just applied for a travel visa for their daughter’s medical treatment, they probably would have received it with little issue.
  9. The parents didn’t want that & had no one set up to care for her. I wouldn’t want to leave her in CPS custody either. This is another anchor baby situation. Really, she shouldn’t have been born here in the first place. Sounds harsh. But, that was the start of the problem.
  10. Again, this is an incorrect summary. You’ve done this repeatedly now. The Authorities didn’t ‘remove’ the girl and her siblings. The parents didn’t want to be separated & had no power of attorney or legal paperwork for anyone they knew to keep their children while they seek a humanitarian waiver. (Which I would think they’ll get. But, I don’t know if it those are only for the treatment time, or what.) I would think there should be a way to have some flexibility in certain circumstances. But, this is another issue where the parents were both illegally here & ignored an immediate removal order from long past. They had their hearing before their daughter was even diagnosed, were ordered to leave, and chose not to follow those directions.
  11. I don’t remember hearing this type of outcry when the Obama Administration created Operation Janus and stripped people of their naturalization status and deported them.
  12. The anchor baby situation has been an issue for a very long time. It really needs to be addressed. Issue is, it would take an Amendment the way things are currently.
  13. Huge win for Trump as world's second biggest carmaker relocates manufacturing to US [Hidden Content]
  14. Low form of wit.
  15. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
  16. The other side of the story. [Hidden Content] It should be noted that Sen. Cassidy is an MD. He’s also always seemed fairly responsible, reasonable and caring from what I’ve read.
  17. From what I understand, no one’s illegal. Just misplaced. 😁
  18. Watched the entire presser/Q&A live. Not sure what you’re talking about. As far as Canada, you may want to keep up with current events. Not everything is as rosy as first appears. [Hidden Content]
  19. Out of baseball coverage area matchup . But, for those interested, this is what I’m seeing. R17 Lake Creek Vs. W20 La Porte Game 1: Thursday, May 8 @ CE King, 7:00 Game 2: Friday, May 9 @ CE King, 7:00 Game 3: Saturday, May 10 @ CE King, 1:00 (if necessary)
  20. Could be a double meaning. The jury’s still out.
  21. Definitely different than most HS stadiums I’ve seen/attended. They’re going to have a bunch of food trucks, give away commemorative rally towels to the first 4,000, and other stuff. Making a big shindig out of the opening. NE Entrance by Bulldog Centre.
  22. Trump is Rodney Daingerfield to the Democrat’s Judge Smails & Bushwood Country Club members.
  23. Spring Game is May 14 @ 6:00 p.m. First time to have spectators, etc. in the stands. Basically, a ‘Grand Opening.’ Admission is free and open to all.
  24. La Porte 8 Baytown Sterling 4 LP wins series 2-1
