So for whatever reason, his Facebook page is wide open, so I figured I'd see if he really was a "lifelong Democrat" until 2024, like he claimed. Doesn't seem like it. /1

Let alone run this country. You will never be my president Trump is my president.

He posted a TikTok video which I didn't open, but was surely about Biden based on the date.Another post from Jan 2021 calling Biden a "dam fool" for information he's passing about vaccinations.Jack Buhring

Donald Trump we all stand with you. You have more people on your side than you know. If you cant get it done its hard to tell where this country will end up. Keep fighting!!!

Pretty damning for his "lifelong Democrat" claim since this is obviously in support of Trump just days after the Jan 6th insurrection.Jack Buhring

Funnily enough, this is no longer true. ELAS, led by Alex Tsipras, is polling 2nd, with roughly 16%, with PASOK at 12%. (SYRIZA is still included in the polls, for some reason, but don't appear likely to clear the threshold.)

The funny thing is that Congress has the power under Article I, Section 8, Clause 4 to establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and so, could tell the White House/DHS to go kick rocks, by including a requirement to hold naturalizations every day.

Suuuuper interesting, I was not tracking this. The judge found the law criminalizing noncitizen voting is a voter qualification statute, and therefore outside of Congress’s power. Surprisingly, this is an issue of first impression! Decision is here: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The best reading of the actual statute that underpins this criminal case yields an inescapable
conclusion: 18 U.S.C. S 611 is a voter qualification statute, and the Constitution does not authorize
Congress to legislate voter qualifications for federal elections. Except for very specific constitutional
provisions (that cannot support this statute; we will go through them, Congress has no power to say
who can vote or who cannot vote in federal elections-that foundational power is reserved for the States,
and limits Congress.
Some legal principles are so fundamental that they form American constitutional bedrock, and
this case reveals a big one: When you're prosecuted based on a law that Congress did not have the
authority to pass, the prosecution cannot stand. That principle in federal law harkens back to cases
like Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 137, 180 (1803), and United States v. Hudson, 11 U.S. 32, 34 (1812), and
has had explicit and unbroken support in criminal cases since Ex Parte Siebold, 100 U.S. 371, 376-77
(1879) ("An unconstitutional law is void, and is as no law. An offence created by it is not a crime. A
conviction under it is not merely erroneous, but is illegal and void, and cannot be a legal cause of
imprisonment."). The principle is so fundamental that it even predates our constitutional republic; it
lies at the very heart of our constitutional heritage. See, e.g., Bayard v. Singleton, 1 N.C. 5, 9-10 (1787) (striking down a legislative act as unconstitutional and holding that a court cannot enforce an
unconstitutional law in any type of proceeding). This principle acts as a shield for every person facing
criminal prosecution in the United States, citizen and non-citizen alike. That shield protects the
Defendant here, and none of the Government's arguments break through it.
