A fourth federal judge blocked President Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order.
US District Judge for the District of Massachusetts Leo Sorokin, and Obama appointee, blocked Trump’s order and said in a 31-page ruling that loss of birthright citizenship, even if temporary, and later restored can likely leave ‘permanent scars.’
CBS News reported:
[A fourth federal judge on Thursday blocked President Trump’s executive order seeking to terminate birthright citizenship
U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin, who sits on the federal district court in Massachusetts, said that a group of 19 states and the District of Columbia, as well as two nonprofit organizations, are likely to prevail on the merits of their claims. The challengers have argued that Mr. Trump’s executive order, issued on his first day in office, violates the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment.
“The Constitution confers birthright citizenship broadly, including to persons within the categories described in the EO,” Sorokin, appointed by former President Barack Obama, wrote in a 31-page decision.]
According to President Trump’s order, the 14th Amendment is being misinterpreted by the left to give citizenship to ‘anchor babies.’
“It is the policy of the United States that no department or agency of the United States government shall issue documents recognizing United States citizenship, or accept documents issued by State, local, or other governments or authorities purporting to recognize United States citizenship, to persons: (1) when that person’s mother was unlawfully present in the United States and the person’s father was not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person’s birth, or (2) when that person’s mother’s presence in the United States was lawful but temporary, and the person’s father was not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person’s birth,” Trump’s order stated.

Won Kim Ark doesn't apply when it comes to granting birthright citizenship. It never did! Wong wasn't even affirmed an Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5 natural born Citizen.
Ignore.
I’m tired of ignoring and Winning!
Yawn.

KATB!
If it were white Norwegians and Danes breeding like crazy and becoming conservatives birthright citizenship would have been the way of the dodo.

How many times did Bidet ignore SCOTUS rulings.
It’s pretty obvious that the amendment didn’t mean anyone dropping a baby on our side of the border automatically becomes a citizen.
This is the only thing the dirty nasty evil rats have as a tool against President Trump. Lawfare is alive and well and will continue to hinder and be a thorn in Trump’s side. They’re betting against all odds that if they can drag all of his EO’s out until the mid term elections they will be in a good position to win back the majority in Congress. That’s the only cards they have to play. Their strategy is delay delay obstruct obstruct drag it out as as long as they can!
This needs to get settled one way or another by the SC.
Worthless ruling. Mississippi v Johnson, SCOTUS, 1867. Impeachment is the only way to stop a sitting President. This judge’s ruling is bogus.
The fag stooges in black robes are doing all they can to protect illegal voters for their RAT massahs. Damn bass turds all need to be impeached. Damn criminals. They know the RATS are going to need millions of illegal alien ballots at midterms if they plan on stealing the election again. Especially with the Jamaican Coconut planning to run for President again.
Already settled. Mississippi v Johnson, 1867 SCOTUS ruling.
The Democrats are in panic because without the illegals that are counted in the Census they lose about 18-20 US House Seats in re-apportionment
These black robed stooges appear to be engaged in overload. The ahos are really scared their Massas aren’t going to regain power again.
Great point ☝️
The winning is in queuing this one up for a decision at SCOTUS. When it gets there SCOTUS can agree or disagree. If they agree, great, that’s further winning. If they disagree it will set up a Constitutional Amendment, and that will be winning as well. Bada bing - bada boom!
How many judges have decided they are junior presidents now?
We knew this was going to happen. Trump will face lawfare challenges to everything he does, including switching on the lights in the morning and ordering a second scoop of ice cream for dessert at dinner. Activist judges have been queued up since Election Day to grant any and all injunctions sought by the LeftWorld lawfare complex.
The question will be whether Trump’s team has thought through their legal strategy beforehand. Improvisation would be dealing from weakness. Trump’s behavior to date certainly suggests that he has learned the key lessons from his first term, of which message discipline, not going off half-cocked, and avoiding self-inflicted damage is probably at the top of the list. Even his personal tone is very different — and he has Elon Musk and DOGE drawing a lot of fire, which takes pressure off Trump.
At this point, the democrats are doing more bedwetting about Musk, DOGE, and the Heritage Foundation than they are about Trump.
