@@goosecoupleif they are not citizens they know nothing about our politics so why let them vote? It’s like having a child vote. They haven’t any clue about how any of our politics effects them.
How ? What has he done for Texas ? Have the grid improved? Texas republicans elected officials are complaining about the down turn of Texas ,yet they been running Texas for over 30 years so who’s fault is it ?
@@Mongoh7145 Oh yes they can …. It depends on what a City’s Charters says… And or what a City’s Mayor and City Council Pass…. A Very sneaky way in order to steal votes….
@@goosecouple in all states, a valid state ID and social is required in order to register to vote. Illegal immigrants usually don't have any of these things, otherwise they wouldnt be illegal immigrants, thus they cant register to vote, which means, they cant vote
Hope they do for America. The first thing they can do is stop giving Ukraine billions to fight "their" war, while America is BROKE! Another thing is cut the foolish programs and help Americans now! Americans love the values of Republican conservatism, but they never want to directly help the people. If they would help all American citizens right now with a real stimulus, just like Trump did, they would get a red wave, everytime! This is how the Democrats keep suckering in American votes; they vote to give trinkets of benefits all the while enriching themselves for votes to control and take away their rights back to slavery. Everyone need to grow up and face the butt naked truth about what they show Americans everyday. Best they research and understand Lynch's speech to slave owners. This is what is going on to affect all Americans, not just one race of people.
He is the best, he revealed on day one that Donald Trump abused the White House and the government. He quickly revealed that Donald Trump had tweets removed, thus violating the constitution and the law.
Non citizens are free to return to their home countries if they don't like the rules of the land Citizens are also free to move if they don't like the rules of the land. Citizenship is the minimum criteria for the right to vote.
@@suzanne9150 What taxes are you referring to? What taxes are you talking about? They they generally only pay sales tax if they are undocumented, as is usual in every other western country that collects sales taxes. When an American visits another country, say Canada they have to pay sales tax on purchases. In some cases non citizens use a TIN and report income to collect money they did not pay in i.e. child tax benefits and earned income credits or if they are a documented alien such as a student or have a work visa. If one is a guest worker in say Canada you have to pay income tax to Canada. Almost every country works the same way Again if they feel they are unrepresented and do not care for that they are free to return to their homelands. In what other country can you be a guest worker and demand the right to vote? In what other country can your first action is to break the law live there illegally and demand the right to vote? When a true citizen of a country is not allowed to vote for a representative and have a say in taxation that is taxation without representation. Just like at home if you say the lights go out at ten your not going to let some uninvited guest come into your home and say the lights turn off at 12.
Limit the Capital to only the federal offices and buildings. All residents are considered residents of the state they reside. North of the river Maryland and South of the river Virginia.
Um but why? If they actually have that many more citizens than some states why not entertain some other form of representation? Oh because it might offset somebody's sense of power? Whatever happened to the ole' "No taxation without equal representation" Eh patriot?
Virginia already took back their half during the Civil War. Arlington is a Virginia city. The remains part of 100 Square miles the greatest surveyor and the first president lay out is Maryland. I agree also resident that live in DC that doesn't have residencies in other state are Maryland citizens and represented by Maryland law makers.
@@Reader0071 He is undergoing chemo for cancer. That is old news, you must not be watching much of these hearings because Raskin has been very outspoken and often on point. He does know the Constitution and much more.

All in the US CONSTITUTION Bill of Rights etc. ARE OF IMPORTANCE MATTERS!! The founding did not spent "blood", "sweat" and "tears" and long hours days in creating such Laws for the AMERICANS protections and shall not, just be demolished by few self interest group to alter the Nation by Laws, at the expense of the REPUBLIC and the Patriotic Citizens.
I have heard that the founders never wanted a centralized government. They wanted it to be spread out over the country to avoid this problem of people wanting statehood and having the very problem of government officials being around like-minded people and never seeing the rest of the country such as flyover country for what it really is which is less Progressive and liberal.
If they are illegal, they shouldn't even be here. The idea that this bandanna thinks they should have a say locally, is predicated on law already broken. It's crazy.
How sad that people have no critical thinking skills think they understand the gist of this video when the subject matter is so far over your head that you didn't catch the tremendous RESPECT that every one of those lawmakers HAVE for Raskin! Consulting him to enlighten THEM as to the exact meaning of our constitution - Because Raskins understanding SO FAR transcends their comprehension, that they SWIM in his words trying to find their way- You might have been clued in to that fact when Raskin RECITED the constitution for them WORD FOR WORD recalling the exact section, line and paragraph!
It's been their plan for decades. That's why they have opened the border and let the floodgates wide open. With over 4 million illegals in 2 years plus the illegals who have already been here. Demonrats will be in power forever. Patriots and true Republicans have been warning us for a long time.
@@tomkingston1468 they think they win ! But the one with the most losses the most ! And it doesn’t matter anyway because you can’t take it with you were they are going it has no value in hell !
“And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall.”
This guy Rep. Jamie Raskin like other radical Democrats wants to have the non citizens (illegal immigrants) to have privileges the right to vote like the US citizens. If that the case, then. American citizens should have the rights to vote in Mexico or Canada.

@@bmp1987 Yeah, Critical thinking! You think you are smarter than the forefathers of our country? Because you are NOT even close, and you couldn't hold a candle to Jaimie Raskin either... But that's ok, that's why you don't represent your party WHO overwhelmingly DOES Respect Jaime!
Why not talk about the reason WHY your side is SO obsessed with how people who are in another city entirely handle their business when it comes to LOCAL elections?? IS it perhaps because you are TERRIFIED that you are becoming a minority in this country - you have lost the last three elections -the last SEVEN popular votes... ADMIT IT!
Whether Local, State, or Federal NO WAY NO HOW should a NON Citizen be allowed to vote. What country in the world would allow this? Please, tell me.....
They have to have Raskin interpret his meaning in more words for them because his understanding of the constitution transcends theirs and they know that but as wily as these Republicans are they're looking to find a way to manipulate its meaning - if that isn't clear by this exchange you need to pay closer attention.
@@GodTriggeredCognition Umm no they are pointing out that Raskin is trying to find a way to let people that aren't citizens of the united states vote in elections. Maybe China should vote in our elections, or RUSSA, or Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela. You know the people poring over our boarders. DC not being a State, is somewhat open to interpretation. But still is under the laws of our constitution. Its actually showing his ignorance to even bring it up and republicans are being as polite as they can, to say no our country is run by our citizens.
pretty clear by the founding fathers of the constitution. no person not a qualified citizen has a right to vote, period. that means federal, state, city, or dog catcher. no person shall cast a ballot without being a quailed citizen
@@melissalayton8406 far be it for me to defend the rep from an important state like … Maryland, but he was diagnosed w cancer and has been undergoing chemotherapy … ie the bandana isn't a fashion statement.
Shrink D.C. to the property of the government buildings that government presides. Place the surrounding properties in to the adjoining area closest to the neighboring state.. PROBLEM SOLVED EINSTEIN!
Ragskin is a commie puke who sure wants to stop those hearings.. must be his ass on the line.. Although the fake January 6th committee was a okay with him.. disgusting puke.
I see a lot of comments here about non-citizens and voting. But I hear in the debate above the issue of D.C. statehood. I agree that non-citizens should not have the right to vote. In fact, I don't see that as debatable at all. But I don't see how that has any bearing on whether or not D.C. should be granted statehood. Am I missing something?
He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.”
Isn't it a travesty that the KING of earth would target an upright man like Raskin with Cancer, but his faith and strength will prevail - I love how much these lawmakers on both sides respect him for his transcendent knowledge of the Constitution and he recites it for them word for word quoting the section, paragraph, and LINE! The Lord will see him through this trial. I pray for him.
we need good options not just having to pick who might not be as bad as the other.. this would keep people like jamie raskin from trying to ruin our great nation
Then why tell, me since you understood this video so well, are they 'Consulting' Raskin for his understanding of the constitution - which you would have noticed he was able to RECITE for by code and line and paragraph VERBATIM BECAUSE his (Raskins) understanding of the Constitution so FAR transcends their comprehension and btw everyone of those lawmakers have more Respect for Raskin than you apparently can comprehend
Raskin is undergoing chemotherapy due to a cancer diagnosis. That's what's up with bandana. I wish Raskin would worry about health care costs for all these illegals. Does he think that those who break the law, crossing illegally into the US, are entitled to expensive cancer treatments on the US taxpayer dime?
@@toddkrabs8399 you never know these days. How in the hell do you know he has cancer? I guess you believe everything a politician tells you 🤨 Besides that,my Aunt Jemima got cancelled for wearing a bandana and here's this guy prancing around with a bandana on. Is he the only person in our government that has cancer? I doubt that. Now you run along and be be a good little 🦀

A district is like a military base, a district of the military compact of arms, ie bases of operations, the district of the Congressional Columbia act, is a base of operations of the constitutional trust.

You might as well allow anyone under 18 to vote too🤷🏻♀️ i mean, why not! Open up the country for anyone and everyone and they all lived happily ever after .. Thank God for the Constitution , and for conservatives.
To look cool & garner sympathy. He is being treated for a very curable form of cancer (100% survival rate). He was ½ bald prior to treatment, but the bandana gives him favorable optics.
I realize Senator Raskin has cancer, and I wouldn't wish that on anybody ever. But I get the feeling the bandana that he's wearing is not so much to hide his loss of hair as it is to make it scream to the world "I have cancer! Pity me!!"
Non-citizens should not be allowed to vote in this country. Any government employees who think they should needs to look Over the laws of this country as well as the oath they took when excepting the job WE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CITIZENS THAT HAVE PAID THEIR TAXES PAY THEM TO DO. YOU WORK FOR US ,IT WOULD DO YOU ALL A WORLD OF GOOD TO REMEMBER THAT
