With SCOTUS invalidating birthright E.O. "Where were the lawyers when this decision was being made?...I have difficulty understanding how a member of the bar could state unequivocally that this is a constitutional order. It just boggles my mind.” - Judge Coughenour (Reagan appointee) Jan. 23 2025
I've been on the bench for over four decades. I can'tremember another case where the question presented was as clearas this one is. This is a blatantly unconstitutional order.Where were the lawyers when this decision was being made?There are other times in world history when we look back, aspeople of good will, and say, "Where were the judges? Wherewere the lawyers?" And frankly, I have difficultyunderstanding how a member of the bar could state unequivocallythat this is a constitutional order. It just boggles my mind.

I know there’s no point arguing with Thomas because he just makes stuff up. But his sole textual evidence that birthright citizenship requires parental “domicile”—the word “reside”—simply doesn’t work. It applies to the child, NOT their parents, and says nothing about parents’ residency whatsoever!

1. Congressman Mike Collins, the GOP nominee for US Senate in Georgia, has spent over $400,000 of taxpayer money designated for office expenses on TV ads that are virtually indistinguishable from his campaign ads.

When I was 13, my grandparents gave me stock in Hershey’s candy as a bar mitzvah gift because I liked candy. I had to sell it this year when I married an FDA employee. Because, as we all know, the federal government is very concerned about financial conflicts of interest.

And yet: It didn’t air on the actual show tonight. CBS did post it to YouTube—and it has nearly 800k views already youtu.be/6ywLEESFDu0?...

Dolly Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, is asking for people to pray for her sister’s health.
Verified Facebook post by Freida Parton. The caption reads:

“Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly. Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been lead to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me. She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly. We all love you! ❤️”

Below the caption is a photo of Dolly Parton standing outdoors in front of lush green ivy, hands clasped in prayer, wearing a shiny silver outfit with lace-trimmed sleeves, her signature blonde hair styled in soft curls, looking upward serenely.
