I am shocked that birthright citizenship was saved by just one vote by the Supreme Court.

I know this Supreme Court is controlled by six radicals, but the 14th Amendment is so clear on this issue that I can't believe it was only upheld by one vote. If you are a Latino who voted for Trump remember this decision, you are not safe and should never vote for a Republican again if you want to stay in the country you were born in.

1. Six reactionaries. Radicals seek Radix, the root.

2. Huh? It was 6-3. That's two votes

4. No, it was 5-4. Kavanaugh voted with the majority but on statutory grounds, not constitutional ones.

Kavanaugh said that Congress can amend the law on who can qualify as a citizen.

5. No it was not.It it was 5-4 on constitutional grounds

6. I agree.

7. Naive me thought

it would be 9-0 in favor. That's crazy. I mean a radical logical conclusion would be only native Indians could be citizens. What a time to be alive!

9. After oral arguments, I thought 7-2

That was much closer than I think a lot of people surmised.

8. Unfortunately, we live in shocking times. Good to see this one go the correct way.
