Elon Musk is a South African who came to the US under a fraudulently secured student visa to study at Stanford (he never enrolled). Through further fraud, he secured a green card and then was naturalized as a US citizen. His US citizenship can be revoked. He also holds a Canadian passport.

Bigot and antisemite Mike Collins, under federal investigation for illegal misuse of tax dollars and only a congressman because his daddy was a congressman, is scared to debate. He'll have to defend health care cuts, tariffs, war. He'll have to keep pretending Trump won 2020!

From mid-2022 to early 2025, the egg producers communicated with each other to coordinate bidding activity on a widely used pricing service, according to a complaint filed in a federal court in Iowa.
The complaint details instances of executives for the companies calling and texting each other in an effort to push prices higher.
Under the settlement, the state DOJ says the three companies must end their price coordination, adopt compliance measures and cooperate with

With this ruling, the birthright issue is not going away. The right hasn't really begun *organizing* around getting rid of the citizenship clause. Like Roe, this will be their fight for a generation. And if the Democrats just say "we won" and ignore it, like Roe, the Republicans will eventually win.

The problem with charges is that the FIRST thing defense attorneys will do, even before they point to video debunking any claims, is to demand that DOJ prove the cost of the damage, which is necessary to predicate charges. That'll expose Trump's remodel.
