That message likely escaped the attention of youknowwho... not sure he has the capacity to understand the message in any case...

So is John Sauer! There is no other kind of citizenship besides naturalized (statute) or born abroad to US parents (statute)!

There's also the weird status of people born in American Samoa, who are US nationals without being US citizens.

Under your theory, so is the orange turd... his grandfather came here to escape military service in his home country of Germany (yes, the Vietnam stuff has its own stench).

Just so, I am birthright and most everyone in my extended family (at least 70 people), and most of my friends are birthright.

Not even theoretically! Obviously! By the plain text of the 14th Amendment!

Presumably by "she is a birthright citizen" the reporter means "she is a citizen under the 14th amendment *only*" and not the completely unremarkable "she is a citizen by right of the circumstances of her birth", which is really what "birthright" means. (and applies to ~all citizens not naturalized)

“It feels like I’m meeting a historic moment both for so many families who might be affected by the executive order, but also for all Americans. This administration is really attacking a foundation stone of American life.”

We are all, all, all birthright citizens, frankly. If we lose this there is not telling how far back they will go to strip people of citizenship. Grandparents coming here in 1899 will not be far enough back, if they are now considered the wrong kind of person.

💯 This has been my understanding.

I keep wondering if they were actually to do away with birthright citizenship, how exactly do they plan to decide which babies can be citizens and which can’t? Sounds to me like it would be a huge bureaucratic mess and probably racist as well.

I'm assuming it would be hugely racist. An example. I know a lady whose parents are Ukrainian and Polish who moved to US in early 1970s, and she was born in LA. So would that mean she could be asked to leave? Probably not. Why? She's white. Watch that happen if it passes. Truly sickening.

Would be racist and political. But which will come first, the brown-skinned person or the person who has hurt the orange turd's tender feelings?
