This question is a deeply disturbing illustration of just how pathological the modern economy-centric ideology and culture have become. If one has experienced proper citizenship, community, family, and roots, one would know by one's own experiences what these are.

We've reached a whole new level here. This weekend, Donald Trump threatened to take away comedian Rosie O'Donnell's United States citizenship simply because he does not like her. Insane. Insane.Trump told his more than 10 million followers on True Social that he was giving quote serious consideration to stripping Oddonnell of her citizenship, claiming she quote is not in the best interests of the United States.

Instead of focusing his energy on running the country and solving real issues for the American people, Donald Trump is picking a fight with, wait for it, Rosie O'Donnell. Over the weekend, he claimed that he's quote giving consider serious consideration to taking her away her citizenship after O'Donnell recently moved to Ireland. Well, folks, now if you're wondering, because I'm sure some of you are, whether or not the president can legally do that, he can't.Okay. He just can't. The 14th Amendment explicitl ...

Legal & Political Analysis - The administration prioritizes denaturalization, raising concerns about potential abuse of power [1] - The Department of Justice memo's "potential danger to national security" clause is concerning, mirroring autocratic tactics used to suppress dissent [1] - Denaturalization efforts could induce fear and self-censorship, undermining the principles of dissent upon which the country was founded [1] - The administration is potentially exploiting a loophole regarding unlawfully procured naturalization to target individuals, even for minor errors on applications [6][7] - Civil denaturalization cases lack the right to counsel and have a lower burden of proof, raising concerns about due process [1] - There are concerns that the Supreme Court might defer to the administration on denaturalization issues, potentially eroding citizenship rights [1][9] - Historically, denaturalization was reserved for serious cases like war criminals, but broadening its application poses a danger to political freedom [11] Historical Context - A 1967 Supreme Court case significantly limited denaturalization, but a footnote left a loophole that is now being exploited [5][6] - Denaturalization efforts during World War II extended to American-born citizens accused of draft dodging, leading to Supreme Court intervention [3][4] - There is a concern that the current political climate is returning to an era where citizenship is politicized, similar to the pre-1967 period [11][12]
