Trump will announce end of birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants, officials say

[Harry Dresden]

It's what it leads to, though. The writers of the 14th did not think it through, but it is the law and no EO can change that.

You need an Amendment.

You won't get it.

how do you know john?....this taking advantage of the law happens quite a bit....when you see it happening more than once it can change your mind about it....

 

[Moonglow]

But maybe they DID think it through, when they put in "subject to the jurisdiction of". That would be the clarification point. Meaning, a baby born to foreigner parents would not be subject to the jurisdiction of the US, but of the country to which their parents belonged to.

if a foreign diplomat was not subject to the jurisdiction of the US, then why would a person here illegally? Either you are saying that a diplomat is not subject to our laws, meaning they could break them with impunity, or, "subject to the laws" was not what they meant.

The equal protection clause covers the legality.

 

[Moonglow]

It will certainly by challenged in the courts and probably be delayed for years

But it puts the ball in the globalist court and is desperately needed

So way to go Trump

It's not over yet all he did was make it a court case, again.

 

[kyzr]

This should have been brought up decades ago, but Democrats and neocons don't give a **** about what's good for Americans. VIVA MAGA.

True. But the point Trump is trying to "re-interpret" is that citizens can make new citizens, illegals or non-citizens cannot.

Fairly Simple to understand.

 

[martybegan]

No indeed but it moves the ball forward. It makes sane Americans wonder why we are the only nation in the world that lets illegals sneak in to have babies and then get all the benefits of parenting a "citizen".

If it fails in the courts then a push for an amendment begins.

 

[rightwinger]

I am sure the TRUMPcourt will approve it

 

[Mac-7]

So much for the Constitution and Trump.

Can you face what's coming?

Republicans should just do an Amendment then regardless of the outcome TRUMP can declare the Amendment pass and is now law of the land thanks to the Biden ...

Yes I agree

The odds are against us (meaning MAGAs) on this

But you never know for sure what 5 unelected demigods in black robes will do

Yes, evil is everywhere.

Neither one can.

 

[Mac-7]

Yes, evil is everywhere.

Its not evil to prevent border jumpers from having anchor babies on US soil

Including pregnant chinese women on tourist visas

It is evil to think that you hate the Constitution.

 

[Mac-7]

You have no idea what you are saying

 

[EvilCat Breath]

The reason that it hasn't been in the courts is no one ever claimed it wasn't the current law in many years.

Texas tried years ago and had to settle because they were going to lose.

It's time the issue was addressed. Decide in the courts or have Congressional clarification.

What a load of wank.

 

[80zephyr]

Maybe so, but legislation cannot cure it and neither can an EO.

The courts can rule that the amendment has been interpreted wrong.

 

[pknopp]

Its not evil to prevent border jumpers from having anchor babies on US soil

There is no such thing.

 

[Moonglow]

You have no idea what you are saying

You have no idea what you are reading when you read the Constitution all you can do is group think like a MAGAT or a Democrat.
