Case law is moot in this argument.

All that matters are the words of the author of the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment, Sen. Jacob Howard of Michigan.

He expressly said:
“This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers.”

There, you will find the true meaning and intent of the citizenship clause of 14th.

So Julia Lynch can now have her citizenship revoked even after all these years? Nope, not gonna happen.

And in a similar vein, are you going to argue that people born on U.S. soil to even illegals, even 1 or 45 years ago are somehow not U.S. citizens and that they can have their papers declared null and void? Good luck with that...

Case law backs up the words of Sen. Howard.
