I tried that argument once, and got the response to the effect of “If you think illegal aliens are not subject to US jurisdiction, look at the US inmate population”.
The jails in this country are filled with illegal aliens who found out that they were indeed ‘subject to the jurisdiction’ of our federal or state governments.

You are talking about a different set of facts: jurisdiction attained by the U.S./States as a result of illegal aliens committing crimes on on U.S. soil is not the same as conferring U.S. citizenship on babies born to illegal aliens on U.S. soil.
Again, I’d have to research it, but legal “jurisdiction” is not as clear cut a term as some may think.
