Ummmm, it doesn’t seem like it takes a tortured reading of the 14th amendment to get to anchor babies. Clearly the law enacted by amendment to the constitution allows for it. It isn’t a penumbra.

Oh yes it does. "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
The children of illegal aliens don't count any more than the families of foreign embassy workers. The Supreme Court in an act of extra-Constitutional kritocracy chose to ignore both the text and the explicit wishes of the authors of the ammendment to manufacture new citizens.
