    Has the world collapsed?
    Are Democrats being hauled into jail on "trumped-up" charges?
    Are dogs and cats living in harmony?

    No - none of the dire predictions (hopes?) we've heard from the folks on the Left have come true. It's okay to live, folks. Breathe, enjoy your family, live your life and have fun.

    No, thus far we just have EOs trying to end a constitutional amendment and the claim that the government will be gaining ownership of what will become the state social media company along with the Chinese government or whatever cut out they agree to in order to sell the other half to the US government.

    Both are true. He is trying to end Birthright Citizenship via EO, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, and has stated that the US government will own half of TikTok. I do believe facts.

    Even the last (Western Roman) Emperor lasted 10 months. Perhaps 'one hour' isnt the right metric.

    Who knew that you all were such big fans of socialism-style nationalization and such detractors of the US Constitution?

    The 14th Amendment was for slaves and their decendants. Slaves were brought here against their will. Immigrants are coming here willingly. The 14th Amendment has been blatantly abused.

    You really should read it. It doesn't mention slaves or slavery once in it. Here is the first sentence for you:

    Yet it was passed on July 9th, 1868, conveniently right after the Civil War and as part of the Reconstruction Amendments.

    14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution: Civil Rights (1868)

    Passed by Congress June 13, 1866, and ratified July 9, 1868, the 14th Amendment extended liberties and rights granted by the Bill of Rights to formerly enslaved people.

    Say what you want, it was absolutely intended to give citizenship to former slaves and their descendants.

    Congress never meant for it to be used for illegal immigrants to have anchor babies.

    A pretty weak argument considering the fact that the amendment easily could have been limited to only former slaves but wasn't. As I stated, not a single mention of slavery in there.
