Thanks. I actually could not find it by googling. I am familiar with the term TBI but not ABI.

What is ABI?

Here’s a chilling thought. We went to the funeral of my cousin’s stepdaughter today. Our Trump-supporting cousins, who live in another state, did not even call with a condolence or post on the Facebook page. Because they were miffed at the posts the first cousin had made regarding the election. We were all heartbroken and appalled.

Thank you. I knew it was a constitutional provision but I didn’t add that. It’s the interpretation of that one clause, subject to the jurisdiction thereof, that is at issue. That’s what they’ve been talking about. . They could attempt to have it litigated without an amendment. The current Supreme Court might bite. They ended up interpreting the Second Amendment that way. But it would require them to start picking people and trying to remove their citizenship. And then what do you do with them? They were born here. What country will take them? It’s a mess but all bets are off right now. Scary.

I thought I posted this response earlier but it maybe didn’t go through. My husband has a sibling who used to use the N word as did his late wife. We objected. He no longer uses it at least around us. Anyway this is New York, not the South. He did not learn this at home, as my husband didn’t learn it. It was from neighborhood dirtbags.

I understand what you mean about the language. We will see. They have been proposing to end birthright citizenship for undocumented people for years but they really have never got past shouting about it, because the legal process would be impossible to even figure out where to start. As for the abortion problem, I really want to see some civil disobedience by the medical providers for these people. What would happen if such a doctor were arrested for murder for helping a woman with a failed pregnancy. My husband, who is a doctor, said this morning that it would be like the Scopes trial.

You can’t really call that denaturalization. Those people have birthright citizenship, so they were not naturalized. I know they want to end birthright citizenship for so called anchor babies, the US born children of undocumented people, but can they go back and retroactively remove those citizenships of zillions of people or just attempt to change it going forward? That might be an impossible goal. I won’t go into more legal details. It’s a mess really but the law has always been interpreted to allow it. they just don’t like it and call them anchor babies. Denaturalization is reserved for people who obtained naturalized citizenship by fraud such as green card marriage.

I swear I am losing brain cells. I tried to watch this yesterday, but I could not follow it. Can someone explain to me in three sentences or so what this PK/Kyle fight is all about? I tried to understand it from the NY Magazine recap also and failed.

When the first ERA was out there, it was defeated by the same crap that worked this time. Bathrooms!

Dr. Phil may be next. Another Oprah fiasco. He was on team Trump.

I have the same question. I don't know how to see a pile-on.

My husband's colleague was also in that med school class. Hated him even back then. He was already a pompous ass.

He actually was at one time a respected doctor.

Dr. Oz for Medicare /Medicaid. I definitely give up. This affects my professional work directly.

in stapler’s video, which I skimmed for a minute or two, she says she will be appearing alone next week. But that may not be true any longer given what they said in this episode
