There's a clause based on Kamala Harris's specific circumstances in the birthright EO.

It is the policy of the United States that no department or agency of the United States government shall issue documents recognizing United States citizenship, or accept documents issued by State, local, or other governments or authorities purporting to recognize United States citizenship, to persons: (1) when that person’s mother was unlawfully present in the United States and the person’s father was not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person’s birth, or (2) when that person’s mother’s presence in the United States was lawful but temporary, and the person’s father was not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person’s birth.


Edit: they completely forgot basic biology in their vindictivness in the anti-trans EO. Since every human is female at conception.

(d) “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

So, we'll just have to gender-convert the whole US to females then. Who knows, maybe the really will inaugurate a US Golden Age?
 
The Federal Government is shut down today.
It is Martin Luther King Day.

Should be plenty of crowd in D.C. if they are willing to freeze a bit.
No refunds!
Apparently lots of ticket holders were literally left out in the cold because of the decision to do the ceremony indoors.
 
As far as social awkwardness, it is well documented that Musk has Asperger's. He's not an adept public speaker. The conversation should end there. But, we have some people so determined to "find" Nazi's everywhere that they turn this into a thing.

I have autism and I'm not an adept public speaker, yet I have never made repeated suspicious arm movements like those. Then again, I've never tried to cosy up to far-right types, so my mileage clearly differs.

I hope people are far more charitable to you than you are to others.

There is no reason for anyone to be charitable to Musk. He wears his beliefs and politics on his sleeve. Is he a Hitler Nazis? No, Hitler is dead and gone. His stated fascist politics have been updated for the age of social media, but he is no different in what he wants as an outcome than his SS predecessors: personal power, influence, money, and enforcement of his politics on others.

Words have meaning. Here you state that you can just change the label to fit whatever you’d like it to be in order to slander your political opponents. Sorry, that’s wrong, morally repugnant, and I can’t endorse it.

I mean, you suggested Obama and Harris were leftists and those staunch capitalists would probably be horrified at the insinuation ;)
 
And yet you're here, attempting to address it to everyone commenting on the fact that he did a Nazi salute.
It’s impossible to have a good faith conversation with you.

Musk had all the opportunity in the world to say something along the line of "I hate all nazis, if you're a nazi I hate you, this wasn't a nazi salute sorry for the weird gesture". He didn't. The "weird gesture" defense would have becomes lightly more believable then.
It was a nazi salute. End of story.
 
Looked pretty Nazish to me. And he did it with such energy his hand almost popped out.

I think Musk dream is to build a Nazi base in the moon.
 
Don't need to indulge the gaslighting by fellow travellers here, we know what we saw.

Wow, you really going all out to bat for the Husk, aren't you? I notably didn't say that he made a Nazi salute, just that autism is no excuse for cosying up to the far-right (which is unarguably a matter of record for Musk), and yet you claim that makes me uncharitable.

Yes, you were uncharitable in your initial comment. Now you're just engaging in ad hoc reasoning.
