Pence faces fury for 'rabbi' who said Jesus is the ‘Messiah’ during Pittsburgh prayer
Washington Examiner - consistently conservative

Quote:
Vice President Mike Pence and GOP congressional candidate Lena Epstein face backlash after appearing on stage Monday with a "rabbi" who called Jesus the “Messiah."

At a campaign event in Detroit, Loren Jacobs led a prayer for the victims of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, which left 11 people dead. "God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob, God and father of my lord and savior Yeshua, Jesus the Messiah, and my God and father, too," Jacobs said as he prayed.

Jacobs is a "senior rabbi" for an organization that considers itself a "Messianic synagogue" and believes Jesus is the Messiah.

Bend the Arc, a Jewish Action group, condemned Pence, calling the display "another attack" from the Trump administration....

14th ammendment in no way was intended to convey citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants. It was expressly written to give citizenship to slaves and the language was of the intent to prohibit citizenship to the ambassadors and foreign dignitaries that existed at the time. It was not intended to give citizenship to native Americans, as they weren’t subject to american law but tribal law instead.

There is a strong legal case for what Trump argues, so lets get it up to the SJC.

So Pence, and by association, Trump, is at fault for a Rabbi making a claim about Jesus being their own Messiah??? Is that the problem?

Also, from what I recall fro my teachings and dating a Jewish girl, the Messiah still hasn't come, correct? And depending on the belief, some say Jesus was a Rabbi and follow his teachings too, but definetly not the Messiah.

Feel free to DM me Chanti so we don't derail too much.

No chance of it getting to the SCOTUS, it will be blocked the day it is issued (if its issued at all), and the SCOTUS won't even agree to hear it. "Intention of the amendment" is irrelevant, the POTUS does not have the authority to amend the Constitution. It isn't even a partisan argument, he is well out of bounds. Its just a giant eyeroll.

So here is a list of EOs he signed.

Not a ban or repeal of 2nd, but certainly a ONE way approach.

Its a problem for the community because they had a giant list of recognized rabbi's to choose from and they picked some guy from a fringe group.

The whole thing is a botch for the administration, they told Trump not to come today, the first day of funerals, because they didn't want to deal with the circus of having a President in town. But he came anyway, not caring, because this was the only day that he could "fit it in." He has campaigning to do.

He was 89 years old, he probably arranged the hit on himself just to put him out of his misery. Why were they even moving him I wonder.

There is a strong legal case for what Trump argues, so lets get it up to the SJC.

At that time there wasn't really any "illegal immigrants" and the language is written to make anyone born on US soil a citizen by birth. Traveling used to take many months so the concept of an "anchor baby" as a way to bypass immigration laws didn't exist either.

You would have greater success arguing for the removal of the 2nd Amendment then the 14th as the 14th's is iron plated in it's simplicity. Instead remove the incentive to use an anchor baby, that the mother can submit paperwork as the both beneficiary of legal status and as the petitioner for that beneficiary. Specifically the newborn baby petitions UCIS for legal status for the illegal mother requesting an hardship exemption because separation from the mother would bring extreme hardship on the US citizen baby. The mother signs for the baby as the babies legal guardian, she also signs for herself. This paperwork creates an immigration case that takes ~years~ to finish and it usually results in legal status being granted by an immigration judge.

I would propose to make that situation impossible, the beneficiary can not be the legal guardian of an infant petitioner and that specific exemption would no longer be considered. The baby would still be 100% a US citizen and would go into foster care or be given to an adoption agency. If the mother doesn't want to do that then herself and the baby are deported together. The baby can always be admitted but the mother can't be.

Would do away with the entire point of an "anchor baby".
