Ed Meese and John Eastman made the clear distinction between territorial jurisdiction and political jurisdiction that Napolitano is either unware of or unwilling to acknowledge.
Since territorial jurisdiction is taken as a given, then due to basic rules of construction in law, a redundant phrase is not necessary. Thus “subject to the jurisdiction” must refer to political jurisdiction, not territorial.
That in fact this is the case is made clear by the Congressional Record of the debates over the 14th Amendment.
Napolitano is letting his Libertarian views get in the way of cogent legal reasoning.
Napalitano is, as usual, full of himself.
Gregg Jarrett was pointing out the other day that the current interpretation only came about in the 60s, and by executive order, not a court ruling or act of Congress. For 100 years after the passage of the 14th Amendment there was no birthright citizenship for children of foreigners. Trump can change it back. If the lefties don’t like it they can take it to court and let Justice Kavanaugh decide.
