Of course they’ll sh*t the bed on this. Guaranteed.
This is a matter for Congress, not the Judiciary.
The Supreme Court will uphold birthright citizenship... So don’t waste your breath waiting for them to subvert the constitution.
The majority conservative members of the current court support and even enhance the constitution... What they never do is crap on it.
Effing demonicRATS would challenge that the sky is blue if they thought it could destroy America.
If the SC uphold this stupid idea then shut the borders.
NO ONE gets in. No tourists, no foreign students, etc.
Or NO pregnant women.
This court has indicated a tendency to sometimes follow the constitution as it was formulated (”originalist” instead of
“revisionary” readings).
So, the court may well toss “birthright citizenship” out the door.
On the other hand, there are several reliable hard-core leftist, communist type votes. And, a couple of more mainstream justices who are nevertheless squishy on upholding the constitution.
So while I am confident on the constitution I am not confident on the court right now.
One thing is could do is punt the matter to Congress....?
Immigration?
1) Deport, not allow entry to anyone who gives aid & comfort to terrorists, the enemy.
2) Deport, not allow entry to murderers, rapists....DUI, Drunk n Disorderly
3) Deport, not allow entry to welfare parasites...To even apply for benefits, grants, loans, etc is reason to be kept out.
To be in the US is a PRIVILEGE, not a RIGHT. Remove the PRIVILEGE.
The Great Replacement has been the law of the land for decades. I don’t expect the Supreme Court to do the right thing here. They will continue purposely misinterpreted the obvious meaning of the 14th amendment to make sure Whites are replaced by 3rd wolders

Laws are not created in a vacuum. They are used to address situations as they arise. The 14th amendment was passed to address the aftermath of the abolishment of slavery. Amending the Constitution is a long, arduous process and wasn’t done to confer citizenship on those born here to undocumented individuals seeking a fresh start. Their presence helped settle the frontier and they weren’t a burden to society. But freed slaves needed to be legitimized as citizens since they did not come to America of their own free will. The current revulsion to illegals rests on the shoulders of the Supreme Court who has ruled that they must be counted as residents, politically, they must be cared for medically and their children must be educated, etc. Add in blue state benefits, welfare, and they now have more benefits than citizens, often while not working. It’s time to remove the honey pot from the grifters.
If the conservatives on supreme court don’t get rid of birthright citizenship, 20 years from now, what will their great grandchildren think of them?

Illegals who come here to have their babies haven't declared allegiance to this country at all. That's only done when you become a citizen, so how can a child conceived in another nation, or conceived here and born of an illegal in this country, be considered a natural born citizen upon its birth? Their parents still owe allegiance to the country they came from, and no child of theirs born here is capable of swearing allegiance to this country. Those children only become citizens when their parents become naturalized U.S. Citizens.
I prefer the term “half citizen” instead of dual citizen...
So-called “dual citizenship” only amounts to a descriptive term, used loosely outside government, never within.
It’s never been recognized by our federal government as even existing. Which is to say, that, as far as the federal government is concerned, so-called “dual citizenship” is not even a “thing”. Accordingly it does not need to be abolished in any formal way.
You know they are going to bungle this.
Nope...from the colonial times handed down in my Family from 1797 the parents had to be born in USA. Otherwise you would be known as a possible British spy .. you can see it in the newspapers of the early 180O’s what Canadians crossing the border and Governor of New York threatening to invade Canada if they didn’t stop trying to sneak their people in to NY State to settle and have USA kids for citizenship .
Foreign Birthright Turd law is unconstitutional. It turns America into a two bit whorehouse.
A pregnant Canadian woman flies to Mexico for a vacation and just so happens to give birth mid flight that baby is now American (even if its against the parents wishes)
Thats obviously what the 14th amendment meant. If you read it a different way that means you’re a racist.
