Birthright citizenship is a Constitutional RIGHT. Any attack on it is an attack on us all. This is an attempt by far-right justices to attack immigrant communities and remove protections from any American who questions Trump. Your rights are nonnegotiable. We can’t compromise on that basic fact.

Frum is a world-class bozo and all-around piece of shit. I saw him speak at the Warner once alongside Andrew Sullivan and, years later, I’m still trying to scrub the stench off my clothes.
