Make federal service required for anyone to obtain "full citizenship".

It's not a "new red line". This is something that has already been tested in the courts because of a law written during WWII. It's only allowed in very narrow circumstances.

For instance:
If someone serves in a foreign military/government and they still have citizenship and it can be proven that it was voluntary.

The same law that allowed for that also attempted to allow for denaturalization in cases where someone:

• Deserted military service during wartime.
• Voted in a foreign election.
  But these were both found to be unconstitutional.

Legal Eagle talked about those cases here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VS-for7pUxU&t=980s

I'm not happy about this either, but let's just make sure we're all on the same page here:

They ended the ability of the Judiciary to check the Executive.

No, they ended the ability of the lower courts to check the executive nationwide. The supreme court can still check the executive (and the US Court of Appeals?).

Now I'm trying to figure out if the lower courts can still check the executive, but only in their respective areas, or if they can make a decision, but it has to be confirmed by (at least?) the court of appeals.

From what I'm reading here: https://www.scotusblog.com/2025/06/supreme-court-sides-with-trump-administration-on-nationwide-injunctions-in-birthright-citizenship-case/

It looks like a lower court can still request to check the executive, but the higher courts will need to grant it. At least according to Kavanaugh's opinion:

the courts of appeals and the Supreme Court will inevitably weigh in on district court decisions granting or denying requests for preliminary injunctions.

Time to start requesting visits every single day so they can actually drop in whenever they want to (as they should be able to).

The only exception to this would be for motorcycles. I get that they want to be heard so that some driver doesn't pull out right in front and cut them off, or attempt to change lanes right into them.

It's a potentially life saving tactic.

Finally? He's already been impeached. Twice.

The next step would be to have him removed from office, but that requires a 2/3 majority of the Senate to agree on it.

If you're in California, flying the California flag is probably the best option here.

That doesn't sound like a naturally tenable position for a whale. The bowl of petunias, however...

I saw the post in c/technology and the title was incredibly misleading. It's a fitting example of a misleading title where it's not worth clicking into the article to find out more.

Speaking his name less doesn't change the fact that he is currently an influential person. We shouldn't hide from talking about bad leaders, we should remember the bad choices that have been made and learn from our mistakes in history in the hopes that we can learn from those past mistakes.

That's why some people have been modifying their comments entirely (and then deleting them).

And even if one of them decides it's real (after giving you a good beating):

They realized he did, in fact, have his green card, but questioned whether it was real.

"'I don't know, maybe it's fake' … The other guy says, 'No, it's real' … That's when they finally stopped"

They'll threaten to do what they can to get it revoked just so they can come back for you:

"Do you think you're a big shot just because you have a green card? I'll make sure they revoke that green card of yours," Reyes said, recalling what agents told him. "'I'm going to do everything I can to get this paper revoked,' an immigration officer told me."
