Summary
Donald Trump signed an executive order to challenge birthright citizenship, targeting children of undocumented immigrants born in the U.S.
The order argues against the 14th Amendment, which guarantees citizenship for those born on U.S. soil.
It bars federal agencies from recognizing birthright citizenship and imposes a 30-day waiting period for enforcement.
The order is expected to face significant legal challenges, with critics calling it unconstitutional.
Doubt. Do we have a remind me bot here? Pretty sure the scotus will hold most of these up, regardless of whether they should.
With this SCOTUS, nothing is ever completely off the table, but I’d like to think that they wouldn’t make a sweeping decision like that which could potentially call into question the legitimacy of the citizenship status of hundreds of millions of Americans (including their own) just for the sake of appeasing Trump.
They literally gave the president criminal immunity to appease Trump.
