AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>Well, I'm not going to lie. This took me eight days, and almost made me move to a cave on the edge of civilization, but I wrote an article about the Roberts Courts decisions in both the trafficking migrants to third country concentration camps case, as the birthright citizenship case. My analysis is pretty grim, but you folks don't read me for sunshine and rainbows.</p><p><a href="https://www.ninaillingworth.com/2025/07/01/knives-out-the-roberts-court-coronates-trump/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ninaillingworth.com/2025/07/01</span><span class="invisible">/knives-out-the-roberts-court-coronates-trump/</span></a></p><p>Knives Out: The Roberts Court Coronates Trump</p><p>"So let’s sum up what we’re looking at here, shall we? Over the course of a single week in June, the 6-3 fascist high Roberts Court openly signaled SCOTUS’s willingness to let the Trump regime ruthlessly violate the constitutional rights of immigrants, including children with a legal right to American citizenship, while simultaneously eliminating every other court in America’s ability to stop the government from violating anyone’s rights unless they can afford a lawyer and get a case to trial, twice. At the same time, the Trump administration publicly declared their intentions to immediately begin ignoring the law to traffic migrants to foreign concentration camps, strip citizenship from people born in the United States, defund Dem-controlled sanctuary cities who won’t help Trump illegally kidnap migrants, block access to gender affirming healthcare for trans people, end enforce unconstitutional funding cuts in the broader US government. And then the Court closed up shop for the term."</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/SCOTUS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SCOTUS</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/JohnRoberts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JohnRoberts</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AmyConeyBarrett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmyConeyBarrett</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USConstitution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USConstitution</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/14thAmendment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>14thAmendment</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/BirthrightCitizenship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirthrightCitizenship</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ConcentrationCamps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ConcentrationCamps</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Courts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Courts</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Law</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nazis</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/RobertsCourt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RobertsCourt</span></a></p>

Adrianna Tan<p>Not lost on me that as birthright citizenship is being challenged today, it was because of Wong Kim Ark that we have it at all. </p><p>It’s AANHPI month, which we are celebrating at work. I complain these terms are arbitrary (and they are) but also they think we are all the same anyway. </p><p>While I can’t do a ton about national legislation, I can do a lot in my community. As an East Asian person, making space for South, Southeast and other Asians and NH (Native Hawaiian) and PI (Pacific Islander) people is absolutely what I want to do. I’m helping to organize some activities at work that spotlight other cultures in our alphabet soup. </p><p>Also RIP Henry Fuhrmann, whose exhortation to drop the hyphen in Asian-American vastly expanded and included people who can consider themselves Asian American. Undocumented people.
