The Trump administration wants to end automatic birthright citizenship as enshrined in the Constitution’s 14th Amendment.NBC NewsBy Lawrence HurleyJune 27, 2025The Supreme Court on Friday handed a major win to the Trump administration by allowing it to take steps to implement its proposal to end automatic birthright citizenship.In a 6-3 vote, the court granted a request by the Trump administration to narrow the scope of nationwide injunctions imposed by judges so that they apply only to states, groups and individuals that sued. That means the birthright citizenship proposal can likely move forward at least in part in the states that challenged it as well as those that did not.
I don't even see wiggle room in this...
"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 only exception is for children born of diplomats!
Here is there twisted logic; ChatGPT when asked about the reason that the Republicans see the amendment differently...
Conservative legal commentaries argue that “jurisdiction” should reflect political allegiance, not mere obedience to U.S. law:“Critics argue that ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof’ must refer to those who bear allegiance to the United States… No allegiance… is given by a parent… remaining here in violation of law”
They referenced articles in the SCOTUS Blog and The Federalist Society.
To me that makes no sense because immigrants are subject to our laws, since we are tying them in courts of law... I think is a DUH. If they were not subject to the laws of the Untied States and the laws of the states. If they were not subject to the laws then if murder someone they couldn't be tried in court of law. It is a stupid argument!
