Supreme Court agrees to hear Trump’s challenge to birthright citizenship

Rules of the Post & Tips.

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments early next year in the challenge to President Donald Trump’s Jan. 20 executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship – the guarantee of citizenship to almost everyone born in the United States. Under the order, which has never gone into effect, people born in the United States would not be automatically entitled to citizenship if their parents are in this country either illegally or temporarily. The challengers argue that the order conflicts with both the text of the Constitution and the court’s longstanding case law.

Now, I ain't po. I'm not a former Supreme Court clerk and I don't teach at an Ivy League law school. But, this case totally fascinates me. The notion of birthright citizenship that the 14th Amendment addresses is irrelevant to life in the US 150 years later.

I have no idea what the Court will do with it.

I have to laugh at this. SCOTUS "agrees to hears the case..."

Which to any first year PSCI student, means they will listen because there isn't a quick consensus in the court. So fuckface "ASSumes" this is going to go against him (which 80% of the voting population do).

What I want is for a SCOTUS decision about this and listen to their reasons about this. Unless you're some methhead (concha), this would signal a sign of knowing WTF we can expect in any new laws coming through. You'd have to be a fucking moroon to think otherwise.

You'd have to be a moron (correct spelling, Mrs. "Master Degrees") to believe the Supreme Whored are going to go against their masters. You never do and you're not even getting paid like them.

Back to the thread. There are some mixed feelings about this. Birth tourism, also known as pregnancy tourism or maternal tourism, is a growing global phenomenon where expectant parents travel to another country with the specific goal of giving birth there. The countries that have birth tourism are United States, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil. At the end of her pregnancy, the woman will come from another country so the child has automatic citizenship. In
2025, birth tourism continues to spark debates on legality, ethics, immigration policy, and the implications for public resources.

Then I think of my grandparents on my dad's side. They were basically potato farmers in Slovakia, near the Polish border. Their kids are all US Citizens because of this. Pablo Escobar's kids were part of this.

So on one hand, it seems like some folks are gaming the system, and others actually carve out a life here for the betterment of the US their kids.

I guess my thoughts are that are using birth tourism shouldn't be given the "right," while those actually working here and etching out a living should be granted citizen.

This opens up the conundrum how do we tell the difference? What do we do? How do you enforce the law, whatever that happens to be? What happens to someone that is a career criminal vs someone that's never had a parking ticket? Taking away citizenship is virtually impossible, so there's that.

So I'm truly on the fence on this.

So it's okay for YOUR family to do it - but no one else unless they meet YOUR criteria.

Like EVERY MAGAt - you're a hypocrite. And if you think I'm not "worldy" because I didn't get paid to help poor folks in the world's shitholes like you - maybe you should ask yourself then why I have to keep explaininig basic ideas about the USA, the law and the military to you.
