A federal judge temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship for illegal immigrants. On Thursday, January 23, US District Judge John C. Coughenour ruled in a case brought by four states – Washington, Arizona, Illinois, and Oregon – that argued the 14th Amendment and existing US Supreme Court case law ensure birthright citizenship.
The EO was signed on Inauguration Day and was slated to take effect on February 19. While Trump and many others interpret it as not applying to the children of illegal immigrants because they don’t fall under the jurisdiction of the US government, the lawsuit argues that it does – and that American courts have interpreted it this way for nearly century.
- The Misuse of the 14th Amendment, By Susan Daniels Jan 22, 2025 - “The 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution was intended to grant citizenship to formerly enslaved people, protect the civil rights of all citizens, and guarantee equal protection under the law. The amendment was ratified in 1868, two years after the Civil War.” I don’t think the Founding Fathers imagined people would come here to take advantage of our government systems by giving birth and going back home..........
- Day 3, Trump Golden Age: ...and just like that, illegal border crossings are down to 420 in a day - January 23, 2025 by Monica Showalter - Three days into President Trump's term of office and the Border Patrol is reporting they've got ... 420 illegal border crossings to deal with across the 2,000-mile border, not 12,000..........Now there are reports of caravans turning around. Some migrants are telling the press they're planning to go home. The sob stories are flowing -- and as Todd Bensmann notes, none are verified through actual reporting......
- Pregnant Migrants Seek C-Sections Before Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Deadline - By Alana Mastrangelo President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birth citizenship for children of migrants has reportedly prompted a rush for C-section births by pregnant illegal migrants and visa workers. Dr. S D Rama, who operates a maternity clinic in the United States, told Times of India that a significant increase in pre-term delivery requests has been seen following President Trump’s Monday executive order ending birthright citizenship for children of illegal migrants. Indian women in their eighth or ninth month of pregnancy are now scrambling to schedule C-sections before the February 20, when President Trump’s order is set to go into effect......
- Imaginary birthright - January 24, 2025 by Bill Ponton - President Trump’s decision to end birthright citizenship is challenged in court, but the whole argument is ludicrous........ The most laughable element of Bonta’s argument is his contention that the Fourteenth Amendment was enacted to enable what we see today. I contend that if the framers were alive today, they would be scratching their heads in bewilderment about our present predicament. They might even call up the Union army thinking that Mexico was trying to reconquer its lost territories.
- Tom Homan Is Right: Babies of Criminally-Present Aliens Are Not Citizens - The lawmakers who wrote the Fourteenth Amendment never dreamed of the lengths to which future Democrats would go to twist the authorial intent of the amendment into a wrongheaded policy harmful to Americans. .............So, here is what the Constitution says about birthright citizenship: “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 wording makes it clear that persons born in the U.S., but subject to the jurisdiction of another country, are not American citizens. In other words, babies born to foreign nationals who are subject to the jurisdiction of Mexico are Mexican citizens, because they, like their parents, are subject to the jurisdiction of Mexico -- not the United States.
