Conservative commentator John Podhoretz called a pastor "actively evil" for expressing concerns about his interracial family while the future of birthright citizenship was still uncertain.Right-wing pastor Joel Webbon posted the concerns on June 29 on X alongside a photo of his multiracial family, which includes a Black daughter."Because of an interracial family, my grandchildren may not get to have a country," Webbon wrote. "Adopting children of another race/nationality is biblically permissible, and in some cases, may be even commendable. The real problem is that women make great mothers, not civil magistrates."He posted the day before the U.S. Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship in a 6-3 ruling, with Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who has also adopted Black children, casting one of the deciding votes.After the court upheld birthright citizenship, Podhoretz lashed out."Wow. You are actively evil, and the fact that you minister to a flock is a tragedy for your community and all of humankind," he wrote on X."What's crazy is that this is obviously extremely racist but it's also still euphemism," The Atlantic staff writer Adam Serwer wrote on Bluesky. "What he means is if he ever has to see someone who isn't white he 'doesn't have a country,' it is not about rights or citizenship but race purity which even edgelords are still queasy about expressing directly.""…Their model of 'rights' is 'we are oppressed when denied the right to be a racial overclass,'" he continued.Webbon, who hosts the Right Response Ministries podcast, has previously argued that interracial marriage falls outside God's "normative design."

Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) on Tuesday said “birth tourism” is an issue Congress should address, “not by executive fiat or judicial activism,” after the Supreme Court ruled against President Trump’s restrictions on birthright citizenship. Three conservative justices, including Chief Justice John Roberts, joined all three liberal justices in ruling that the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship…
According to Campus Reform, "The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is offering students a $7,000 stipend through its “Dream Summer” fellowship, a summer program that trains participants in immigrant rights advocacy and social justice activism."

President Donald Trump is breaking precedent in an important way, according to two experts — he is unprecedented in his corruption.“Past presidents of both parties have recognized that the Oval Office is a public trust, not a business opportunity,” wrote The Hill’s David Wippman and Glenn C. Altschuler on Sunday. “President Trump has shattered that norm. Since returning to office, he and his family have raked in more than $4 billion. Much of that comes from investments in cryptocurrency, real estate, and licensing ventures that benefit directly from President Trump’s policies.”He added, “Although the federal conflict of interest statute does not cover the president, every occupant of the White House since Watergate has recognized an ethical obligation to separate public office from personal financial interests. Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush used blind trusts. Barack Obama and Joe Biden didn’t need to, because their assets consisted largely of diversified investments, pensions and book royalties.”Wippman and Altschuler described how Trump has weakened regulations to prevent conflicts of interest, heavily profited from cryptocurrency, used his power to enrich his hotels and golf courses and accepted deals which personally benefit him from the governments of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. They even described him from profiting by major media and technology companies settling frivolous litigation he filed instead of contesting them.“Last month, in what critics called ‘the most blatant example of presidential corruption in modern times,’ Trump settled his own suit against the IRS,” Wippman and Altschuler wrote. “The settlement included a $1.776 billion ‘anti-weaponization fund’ Trump could use to reward supporters and immunity for him and other family members from any claims the IRS might make against them. Political blowback forced Trump to abandon the fund, perhaps permanently, but not the exemption from prosecution. It’s impossible to know whether any specific policy decision reflects greed rather than the public interest. But that is precisely the problem. When citizens cannot be confident the government is acting on their behalf, they lose faith in the political process.”Trump’s personal profiting from the presidency was evident as recently as Sunday. The New York Times reported Trump and his sons are profiting from the administration striking a deal with Kazakhstan President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev in November over tungsten mine access.“Their sons were soon doing business with partners in a deal that their fathers were negotiating, continuing a pattern of self-enrichment in the second Trump administration that has few precedents in American history,” wrote The New York Times’ Paul Sonne and Eric Lipton on Sunday. They later added that “around the same time, Cantor Fitzgerald, an investment company controlled by Mr. Lutnick’s family and overseen by his sons Brandon and Kyle Lutnick, helped one of the lead investors working with Dominari on the Kazakh deal raise $210 million in new capital for a related entity. Such rounds of fund-raising typically net Cantor millions of dollars in fees.”
