Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett triggered fierce backlash from MAGA loyalists after forcefully questioning the Trump administration’s top lawyer and voicing skepticism over ending birthright citizenship during a heated Supreme Court argument.
Since taking office, Donald Trump has pushed for an executive order to end birthright citizenship, a constitutional guarantee under the 14th Amendment that grants automatic U.S. citizenship to anyone born on American soil.
During oral arguments, Barrett confronted Solicitor General Dean John Sauer, who was representing the Trump administration, over his dismissive response to Justice Elena Kagan’s concerns. Barrett sharply asked whether Sauer truly believed there was “no way” for plaintiffs to quickly challenge the executive order, suggesting that class-action certification might expedite the process.
It was never about the Constitution with MAGA.
Cult-like behavior. Literally. “You’re with us all the way and must always back anything Dear Leader does or says. If you disagree with anything, you must be kicked out, expelled, recalled, fired, or voted out!” It’s absolutely psychotic to view the world in such zero-sum, black/white terms.
I seem to recall the right wailing about cancel culture not too long ago…
Cult-like behavior.
They want a policy and they’re loudly advocating that any politicians standing in their way get removed.
The thing they’re asking for is awful. But God Damn, this is the kind of FDR/LBJ style titty twisting that any major legislation needs in order to happen in this country.
More proof the right wing does not, nor have they ever, given one flying fuck about the Constitution that they go on so much about.
It’s like they’d already been conditioned to be outraged about some other selectively-ignored sacred text…
They have only read one of the amendments all the way through and part of another one and the rest is too boring to read.
Curious which ones? I don’t think they read all of the Second. The ding-a-lings certainly never read the First and actually understand it, because they keep acting like this is a “Christian” country, when the First says I don’t have to give two shits about the chosen lifestyle of the xtian book club. Meaning I most definitely have freedom FROM religion.
One in full is the second amendment, one they read partially is the first because they know FREE SPEECH and nothing else.
Somedays I really have to question whether such people really exist. I mean really? What do they think America is?
Edit: I mean, I get it from the people in power, they want to cozy up to that power and so they will parrot its rhetoric. So companies, lobbyists, etc., sure.
But like, regular people? With day jobs? Who function in regular society going to stores and cooking food and cleaning homes and all that? What is their actual vision of America here?
