Millions of Americans are learning about the ins and outs of our constitution, and longstanding interpretations of it, that we did not know before. Left or right, people are surprised by what they’re learning, as it’s out of step with the everyday assumptions that most of us make. The population in 2025—and not just young people, but all kinds up to and including old people—acts as though the world is made up of “vibes.” If something “feels like it should be true,” then it is true. If something “feels mean and not nice,” that means it’s not true and everyone who says it’s true is a stupid baddie.
Immigration policy is a good example. Did you know, for instance, that people who are naturalized as U.S. citizens (meaning they were born somewhere else, and had to ask for citizenship in the U.S.) can be stripped of their citizenship? It’s true. And it’s not true because of Donald Trump, or the Republican party, or because of “racists.” It’s settled, longtime constitutional policy and interpretation.
“In describing the theory of denaturalization, the Supreme Court has stated that ‘[a]n alien has no moral nor constitutional right to retain the privileges of citizenship if, by false evidence or the like, an imposition has been practiced upon the court, without which the certificate of citizenship could not and would not have been issued’.”—Congress’s website annotating the U.S. Constitution
That’s what allows someone like Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) to request that the Attorney General investigate whether socialist Muslim Zohran Mamdani, running for mayor of New York, should have his citizenship stripped if his anti-American and terrorist-organization support slipped past the naturalization board.
There’s something else you may not know, and it’s an unbelievable scam. Ever wondered why the Democrats, and Joe Biden, opened the borders and consciously encouraged millions of illegal aliens to enter the U.S. criminally? It’s because those people mean more votes for them. No, it’s not because the aliens will vote directly in elections (though many obviously are). It’s because the U.S. census counts even illegal aliens. When Congressional districts are redrawn, giving one party or the other more seats in Congress, the population including illegal aliens determines how many seats they get.
It should be clear, now, why the Democrats have tried to dissolve border control.
The Republicans and President Trump have had enough. Trump is supporting Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-Ga.) who introduced a bill demanding a new census that only counts American citizens. Prolific twitter poster and journalist Collin Rugg has more:
As you can imagine, some people are learning about this ridiculous con game for the first time. Here’s what the public had to say:
