Joy-Ann Reid looks at the long history of the right's red-pilling of men in the US and the economic forces funding this:
"What these men of right wing media were selling was consistent: resentment against racial minorities, particularly Black people; anger against poor people; venomous rage against liberated women; anger against secular Americans and liberal Democrats;" (continued in /2).

A JOY'S HOUSE SERIES: The MAGA Chronicles – From El Rushbo to Charlie Kirk; red pilling the younguns
The broadcast continuum on the right is reaching its logical conclusionJoy-Ann Reid (Welcome to Joy's House!)
#SCOTUS is taking up one of the term’s most consequential cases∶ Trump’s #ExecutiveOrder on #BirthrightCitizenship, declaring that #children born to parents who are in the #US illegally or temporarily are not US citizens.
#Trump is in attendance. He’s the first
sitting president to attend oral arguments at the nation’s highest court.

The #BirthrightCitizenship order, which #Trump signed on Jan 20, 2025, the first day of his second term, is part of his #Republican admin’s broad #immigration crackdown.
EVERY lower court that has considered the issue has found the order #illegal & prevented it from taking effect. A definitive ruling by #SCOTUS is expected by early summer.

Predictably, #ClarenceThomas sounds most open to the #Trump admin’s position.
Thomas recounts that the aim of the 14th amendment was to make citizens of the freed slaves. “How much of the debates around the 14 Amendment had anything to do with immigration?”

Many of the arguments in today’s case go back to the Supreme Court’s 1898 ruling in the case of Wong Kim Ark, which said a US born child of Chinese nationals was a citizen.
In that ruling, Justice Horace Gray wrote that #14thAmendment “affirms the ancient & fundamental rule of citizenship by birth within the territory. That, he wrote, is “including all children here born of resident aliens.”

#Trump admin says it doesn’t want Wong Kim Ark case overruled
Sauer noted the govt is “not asking you overrule Wong Kim Ark,” which extended #citizenship to #children born in the US to foreign parents.
But he added that it was “totally unambiguous” that the 1898 ruling “relates to domiciled aliens,” & not what he called “sojourners,” or temporary visitors.
My question, who makes the determination of who qualifies as a tourist?

Under #Trump approach, #foundlings given up for #adoption could be #stateless.
5 years ago, when #SCOTUS heard arguments over whether it should overrule #RoeVWade, Justice #AmyConeyBarrett asked a series of questions about #SafeHaven laws, which allow parents to anonymously surrender newborn #babies at hospitals or firehouses, without fear of prosecution.

No way he has the patience or stamina for this. He’ll either fall asleep or leave. Possibly both.

"This is not about looking at one individual email. This is not about a smoking gun. This is about putting all of it together and understanding the scale and the sophistication of this criminal sex trafficking operation – and the number of people who were not only aware, but actively involved in keeping it going."

‘Epstein would find unsupported children and tell them: I’ll save you’
At the Laugharne Weekend, Lucia Osborne-Crowley, one of four journalists in the courtroom daily for Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial, talked to Robin Ince about abuse, justice and the ‘rape myths’ that silence survivorsThe Nerve
(continued from /5)
"like opening six-figure accounts for teenage girls with no last names and/or Social Security numbers, keeping Epstein on as a client all the way up to the point investigators started sniffing around. Dimon was CEO when his firm paid more than $300 million of its loose couch change to settle its Epstein claims. And Dimon still is the CEO today."
"And nothing and nobody abetted Epstein like the world of finance itself, where even a little lawbreaking is fine if it’s a fine. Jamie Dimon was CEO of JP Morgan Chase where Epstein was a client starting in 2006, and chose to keep Epstein on as a client after his 2008 conviction. Then he turned a blind eye to all the money-laundering human-trafficking red-flaggy things Epstein was doing," (continued in /6)
"Jeffrey Edward Epstein was but one man, and everyone he danced with each made, then broke or kept, their own deals with that devil in exchange for money, connections, and/or insider information. The techbros, the finance bros, gossipmonger Peggy Siegal, Trump, they all got and gave things in their association with Epstein, and all conveniently turned a blind eye at best to his taboo proclivities."

"All of these individuals are committed to upending the post-WW2 order and removing any guardrails of accountability and transparency. One of their vehicles is Crypto, which has helped Trump’s family amass more than $5 billion in one year.
Who else was interested in Crypto? Jeffrey Epstein, of course."

"Trump’s 'Czar' of AI and Crypto is David Sacks, who is part of the South African PayPal Mafia, which includes Elon Musk, Trump’s number one donor, and Peter Thiel, a white nationalist billionaire who groomed JD Vance and was closely tied to Epstein and shared his dystopian, eugenics-based world view."

"Donald Trump is the person mentioned most in the Epstein Files. Then there’s Howard Lutnick, Trump’s Secretary of Commerce, who lied about his extensive personal and business relations with Epstein."

#Putin is extremely pleased with his puppet in the #WhiteHouse. ✅
When #Trump - aka #AgentKrasnov - said his presidency would be used for “retribution”, he was parroting his puppet master who planned #retribution against the #UnitedStates for the break-up of the #SovietUnion.
