We are a LAWLESS nation living in a post-Constitutional era, and the GOP-run Congress hides under their desks afraid to death of the first Mooslimb pResident and his Joseph Goebbels-like media.

The obvious answer. “I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. So help me God.”

AN inability to speak a language is NOT A DISABILITY ! The intent of citizenship was to ASSIMILATE into the American culture .
Ah ! The "good ole days " ..so long forgotten !

Meanwhile in Philadelphia volunteers are needed to stand up for the rule of law but there must be a sports event going on somewhere that demands attention.

The way the minions of 0douchebag carry out his orders is frightening. Way too close to Himmler, Goebbels and the rest of Hitler’s bros, IMO.

Actually it’s called NULLIFICATION, usually in conjunction with juries. It’s the next to last protection afforded by the Constitution. An armed population is the last.

I still ask myself why would ANY illegal want amnesty? They get all the benefits of citizenship, more than a citizen, with none of the responsibilities.

Tyranny:

It will be funny to see the liberal outrage when President Trump or Cruz engages in “prosecutorial discretion” as well.
