Birthright Citizenship is Teed Up Again

You really full of bull

The US has the right to refuse entry to anyone

Actually NO!

The treaties with the natives and with Mexico, all require that there be no impedance to anyone in the lands they gave up to us.
Like the Treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo.
In fact, those treaties we signed with the natives still make it illegal for US citizens to cross the Appalachians.
 
Wrong.
First of all, there is almost no welfare in the US, and immigrants are afraid to even try to get any.

Second is that the original colonists were much WORSE than the modern immigrants because the original colonists murdered the native owners.
The Democrat Party's corruption, hate, racism and violence has alienated educated mainstream Americans
Therefore, the Dems want to fill our country with poor uneducated third world peasants who will vote Democrat

Thats more splitting of hairs than I care to endulge in

We cross back and forth across the Appalachians countless thousands of times a day

So obviously no one is paying attention to you
 
Wrong no one says tourists or foreign military personnel are under American jurisdiction, but both can be arrested, charged with crimes and sued. Just like illegal aliens they are entitled to representation by diplomatic personnel from their home countries.
Anybody in our country, with exception of foreign diplomats, is under jurisdiction of American law.
 
President-elect Donald Trump has announced a day-one policy to end birth citizenship. Currently, under U.S. law, a person is granted U.S. citizenship if they’re born in the country. Trump argues this creates an incentive for illegal immigration, or for a woman to simply travel to the United States from another country when she is pregnant. And if the child is born on American soil, then it opens the door to various social benefits and chain migration. [Not my words].

The operative words in the 14th Amendment are:

"...All persons born...in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

(1) The quoted text is ambiguous. Anyone claiming that it is "clear" or "unambiguous" is simply lying.

(2) The political Left has always maintained the position that the section is rightly understood by ignoring the italicized words above. There is no legitimate principle of document interpretation that suggests ignoring substantive words or clauses to get the true meaning.

(3) The United States law enforcement and immigration authorities have presumed for generations that the quoted section MEANS that anyone born in the U.S. has automatic citizenship, regardless of any other factors.

(4) There is a footnote in a Supreme Court written opinion, composed by Justice Brennan that affirms the Left's interpretation of the clause, but of course that section of the opinion is dicta, and not binding.

(5) The interpretation currently accepted in the U.S. is not only unsupported in law, but it is manifestly foolish. Only a few countries in the world have adopted such foolish rules for citizenship.

It is unclear whether the "accepted meaning" of this section of the 14th Amendment can be changed by an Executive Order, a Federal regulation, a new law, or it would take a Constitutional Amendment. Just as important, even if it is changed one way or another, what does that mean to people who are currently presumed to be citizens whose only claim to citizenship in being born on U.S. soil? What would be the effective date for the "new" policy? Retroactive?

Whenever this issue is raised, the Left goes into shrieks of horror, claiming that the "Constitution" demands this policy, it is settled law, and so on. All bullshit, as you might expect. It has NEVER been definitively, legally, and Constitutionally decided.
At this point, it's probably pretty much over.
 
Afraid not you are out of luck there is no Twitter.
