“Originalism is an incoherent doctrine. It allows you to prove anything. Thus what it amounts to is a ritual invocation of the Founders, gesturing at this or that piece of text, before delivering whatever conclusion was approved on Fox News the night before.” www.liberalcurrents.com/we-have-no-s...

We Have No Supreme Court

The philosophical incoherence of originalism prevents the Court from performing its core functions as a supreme court.

This aligns exactly with what we know about noncitizen voting; it is extremely rare (9 noncitizen votes in MN out of 3,253,920 in the 2024 election, or 0.0002%), and when it occurs it’s most often green card holders who were mistakenly told they could vote (none of these people are undocumented).

Adam is correct here. If anyone is bringing Communism to America, it's Trump himself. Literally. Look at the definition of Communism, then look at what Trump has been doing to subsume business enterprise into government control and ownership. That's Communism by definition. Brought on by Trump.

There’s a reason the Declaration never says “Jesus Christ.” Inserting your preferred deity isn’t historical evidence. If the Founders wanted Christian nationalism, they had a strange way of showing it: a Constitution with no Jesus, no Christianity, and no religious tests.
