And I don’t know why so many people still think they can’t.

      Have you set up some sort of gofundme or something to get your wife out of the country? I know you’re busy with like 50,000 other things, but this is getting really scary. Their next moves are going to be disallowing emigration of all natural born citizens, if I’m reading this playbook correctly.

        Being able to afford to get out is not the problem. Unfortunately, the problem is that I need to make at least £28,000 a year while in the UK in order for them both to get a family visa. But I appreciate the suggestion and I agree. Unfortunately, there’s not much that can be done. She can come over with a visitor visa for six months, but the house has to be sold first.

      Scotus did emergency sessions over less. The only reason they haven’t weighed in on this stuff is because they still haven’t worked out how to spin it.

      Yes, but it does buy time which might be needed for people to rally or, preferably, a few GOP house members to leave or die. After all, Trump is trying to overwhelm the system. Plus, while this is indeed the worst supreme court in the history of the court, they sometimes don’t vote as a bloc.

      Like, birthright citizenship is a pretty big leap for Roberts, possibly for anyone else aside from Alito or Thomas (Kavanaugh, the bastard, has even flipped before). But I’m not too hopeful, better if it didn’t come to that dice roll.
