One thing I didn't know is the parents in Wong Kim Ark returned to China and considered their primary allegiance to China. If allegiance of the parents is necessary to transmit birthright citizenship, then Trump is saying Wong Kim Ark should be overturned. I think Roberts called that out.

Sauer is still desperately thing to tie domicile, allegiance, and jurisdiction together. His logic is openly that "subject to the jursdiction of" requires complete allegiance, and you can't show allegiance without acquiring domicile.

Barrett hammering Sauer on his continued obsession on the allegiance of the PARENTS, as if the baby is presumed to inherit the allegiance of the parents, and not addressing the words "born in the united states".

What they are setting up for is any rebellious talk. If they get their way anyone that speaks out against Trump has no allegiance and can be deported.

This is some bull s***.
