During oral arguments at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson made her case for why the children of foreign tourists ought to qualify for birthright American citizenship if they are born in the United States while their parents are on vacation.
The case, known as Trump v. Barbara, will decide whether or not President Donald Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship for the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens and foreign tourists, often referred to as “anchor babies,” is constitutional. […]
“I was thinking about this and I think there are various sources that say this, that you can have — you obviously have permanent allegiance based on being born in whatever country you’re from, that’s what everyone recognizes,” Jackson said. “But you also have local allegiance when you are on the soil of this other sovereign.” …

Maybe she’s the one who has been coaching that certain minority on how to behave during a traffic stop.
She has local anesthetic of the brain.
Just another DEI leftist zombie.
. Here is her argument... its mind boggling. Stunning.
“A U.S. citizen visiting Japan who steals a wallet could be arrested and prosecuted under Japanese law—and therefore, she argued, would be demonstrating a form of “allegiance.”
She’s breathtakingly stupid.
She’s trash. Just like Harris.
Wait around. The best is yet to come. You have not seen anything yet. Hang on to your hat because it is coming!
A joke is funny. There is nothing funny about this whatever it is.
Judge, that speculation just doesn’t make any sense.
I know you don’t want to hear that. Oh well.
What a bunch of bull coming from an incompetent attorney who shouldn’t be on SCOTUS. She couldn’t even define “what is a woman”. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Shame on the Republicans who voted to confirm her.
Is she still not a biologist?
I would love to see the full legislative history of the fourteenth amendment. I know it was based on the Civil Rights Act of 1866 intended to give citizenship to former slaves, by granting it to anyone born in the US but only included those “who are not subject to any foreign power”. I want to know why it was changed to the lesser “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof” in the 14th.
The woman is an affirmative action idiot.
what a pair of idiots. Biden’s girls, both even more stupid than he is.
At least he has Alzheimers. What’s their excuse?
I hate every Senator who voted for this imbecile, GOPers included.
Okay, so her vote doesn’t count. What happens with a 4-4 tie?
