• Did Baxter's Democratic Party leave him?

    From a425couple@a425couple@hotmail.com to or.politics,seattle.politics,ca.politics,fl.politics,rec.aviation.military on Fri Feb 27 14:13:18 2026
    From Newsgroup: rec.aviation.military

    A long time ago liberal Democrat Baxter indicated
    he did a career in the US Army. So, one can assume
    that although he was liberal, he was deeply patriotic.

    Is he still?
    Does he approve of what elected Democrats did at SoTU ?
    Does he think "The first duty of the American government
    is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens." ?


    POTUS Trump gave a long SOTU speech Feb, 2026
    I felt this part of long speech was fairly memorable.

    "One of the great things about the State of the Union is how
    it gives Americans the chance to see clearly what their
    representatives really believe. So tonight, IrCOm inviting
    every legislator to join with my administration in reaffirming
    a fundamental principle.
    If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your
    support.

    The first duty of the American government is to protect
    American citizens, not illegal aliens.

    AinrCOt that a shame? You should be ashamed of yourself for not
    standing up. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    (It appeared the vast majority of Democrats stayed seated.)

    ===========
    AI Overview
    The U.S. Constitution does not extend full protections to foreign enemy invaders, particularly during declared war or armed conflict. While the Constitution guarantees rights to persons within U.S. jurisdiction,
    enemy combatants are subject to the laws of war, allowing for
    detention, removal, or, if necessary, killing, largely regulated under
    the Alien Enemies Act.
    Key Constitutional & Legal Aspects:
    Alien Enemies Act: Under 50 U.S.C. -o-o 21rCo24, during declared war or threatened invasion, the President may authorize the apprehension,
    restraint, and removal of citizens of the hostile nation.

    BTW name the "illegal invaders" the US has had during it's history.
    30 million is to many to list.
