We lost. Just announced Trump v Barbara
It may look like a loss, a setback, but God!!!
Don’t go by how it looks or feels. Trust in Jesus no matter what. He is faithful and true. He is not a man, that he will lie. Trust God!
Bills only work if R’s maintain control of both Senate and House AND MAGA dominates both.
The SC descisions today are a giant red flag that demonstrates the destruction wrought by a legislature unwilling to legislate. The court mini majority has opted to rule by the “letter of the law,” not the actual “intent of the law.”
“Congress must act!”
ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How much longer are we going to take this?
This decision was based on one of the most straightforward questions of rule of law ever. The intent of the 14th amendment and the 1866 civil rights law preceding it was as obvious as obvious can get; there is no, “Gee, I wonder what they meant?”
Everyone of those 5 who voted, John Roberts, Amy Coney Barrett, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Ketanji Jackson have not just violated their oaths to support and defend the Constitution, and to faithfully discharge their duties under it, they are in effect actively participating in the overthrow of the sovereign authority of the United States of America–WE THE PEOPLE–and giving aid and comfort to those enemies of the United States who wish to destroy us; that is not only not acting in good behavior it is rises to the level of both sedition and treason, because they have chosen the side of citizens of other countries over the legal authority of American citizens.
Let’s start with impeachment of all five, and go from there.
The Supreme Court has just killed the United States.
I wonder if they are too stupid to realize what they’ve done. Not that it matters.
Only if we roll over and take it.
We’ve been rolling over and taking it for the past 80+ years, John…
I sincerely hope we, the people, can grow a set of balls and put a stop to it as you suggest…
It is hard to kill the character of a nation, after 70 years of the Soviet Union, Russians were still Russians.
The number one component of American DNA is you can’t tell me what to do. Yes it has been in hibernation for decades, but it is still there, and I believe in large enough numbers to alter our head long dive into slavery. We are reaching the endpoint of prudence and quickly arriving at the station of that long train of abuses usurpations where we throw off that government to end our patient suffering.
Read Justice Thomas’ dissent.

Wonder why he didn’t read his dissent aloud; perhaps he’s as demoralized as I am.
We’ re committing national suicide.
We’re not willingly committing national suicide- we’ve been attempting to vote in the opposite direction of this for our entire lives !!
Here is the opinion in full.

Thank You for the Link
It’s not level of intelligence, it’s principle based ideology, or lack thereof.
We should absolutely seek impeachment.
John we’ve got a clear problem here in that they they have all forgotten that at the end of the day, they work for We The People.
The President ran and won on this point, this agenda, and he won HUGE.
We’ve elected more and more Republicans to support him in his agenda, the Republicans are raising huge amounts of money.
The Will of the people is clear.
Absolutely correct.
This point in time with the mid-terms approaching is the most consequential and existential time we have faced in a long time. We have the numbers, if we do not come together now, if we continue to fall for the enemy’s strategy of divide and conquer, if we fail to put our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor on the line now, right now, we’re nothing but the slaves we deserve to be.
Even if I’m the only one, I’m not going down that way–FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

Impeachment of certain supreme court “justices” sounds good, but will never happen in time to save our nation and our freedom…
At this point in time, considering our “do nothing congress”, our supreme “court” packed with liberal “justices”, and, considering that nothing has been done to secure our elections, we have only until the mid-term “elections” (which the dim/rino/communist coalition will “win” by stealing.
There is NO time to “clean up” our court system…
The situation has boiled down to the point that we now have only two options to save our nation and our freedom:
1.) President Trump declares a National Emergency, activates the Insurrection Act (yes, stealing an election is Treason), declares Martial Law, has our Military conduct our elections, and turns justice over to Military Tribunals.
2.) If the President doesn’t do as stated in number 1.) above, our only option will be: Civil War II…
Just stop.
A military Junta and a civil war is far more deadly than anchor babies.
There are options and President Trump is a strategic planner.
Stop trying to make our tree look crazy,
sock puppet.
What makes “our tree look crazy” is the folks that don’t have the intelligence to know and understand what is really going on and think we can still vote our way out of this mess…
My comment stands, like it or lump it…
Stands as the ridiculous notion that it is, yes.
Interested to know what those “options” are.

Lol, This aged well.
ACB is the Turtle’s revenge since he was Majority Senate leader when she was confirmed. As for Roberts he is a Bush Globalist. Now this case underlines the importance of all of us to get involved in our communities elections for the 2026 midterms. The 2026 midterms are the last straw to overwhelm the RINO Bush Republicans by voting them out and getting legislation through to stop this nation destroying disease that has infested DC.
On target, the mid-terms are everything at this point, we let them steal a house now, the countdown to 20 Jan 29 begins, when the next sock puppet in the oval office will do us in, this time Team Slavery will do us in.
We have got to take our sovereignty back from the cabal that has usurped it, our failure to do so will unleash their revenge, as it has in the past. Nothing angers power hungry megalomaniacs more than resistance to them, and after we chose Trump, anyone can see it, I mean they’ve already unleashed a bioweapon on us.
When they did not get their wish of one world government with the League of Nations, they brought us WWII the sequel and made sure the UN was founded. Sixty million dead meant nothing.
“We have got to take our sovereignty back …”
Don’t think it will be that simple, I’m afraid we’re to the “you can’t vote your way out of it” stage.
Why I always say, President Trump waited a few decades too long.
We cannot our sovereignty back in the current environment, before we can vote our way out of it, we must unequivocally demonstrate that we aren’t taking it anymore.
I wouldn’t want to be in a foxhole with you.
You nailed it!
A bonus is that people who fight back will have no time for despair.
Well the Democrats will help you with five of the justices but never convict the three liberal nutcases. Then they won’t approve a single new justice until Trump’s term is over and you know 5 or 6 R’s will help them. Then if the Democrats can take the presidency they will appoint 5 more Jacksons and the Republicans will vote their approval without a peep out of them.
Deja Vu all over again.
It is not the success of impeachment and conviction that matters at this time, it is the demonstration that we have had enough and are not taking anymore. These people have no spine, showing them our resolve in large enough numbers will fill their nights with second amendment nightmares of the next J6 being both 10 times as large and we bring our guns this time.
Those nightmares are the only reason that we are not complete chattel slavery already, and still have a chance to turn this thing around.
We don’t need to actually bring the guns, we have the numbers and we just need to speak with one voice and say NO!
Did Kringy Brown Jackson recuse herself from the men in women’s sports decision? She couldn’t answer what a woman is so how could she judge?
And yes, you are right. If dumocrats take house or senate there will be nothing left to the Trump agenda and America will lose the exceptionalism it has earned for 250 years.
Well, birthright citizenship is in the constitution. I believe they punted this because opinions vary and the wording intent isn’t quite clear enough. They pushed this one down the road and insinuated it needs clarification from an amendment to constitution. The vote was close and that indicates the constitution doesn’t say enough about the issue.
Opinions are irrelevant to indisputable truth, which in this case is easily found by reading the original debates of the 1866 Civil Rights Act and those of the 14th Amendment. The intent was absolutely based on providing citizenship to former slaves, and the denial of citizenship to those not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States (which meant not owing allegiance to any foreign power, which you do by being a citizen of a different country). This cannot be argued against unless you bring up a BS one such as the classic, it depends on what your definition of is, is.
“The vote was close and that indicates the constitution doesn’t say enough about the issue.”
Not at all, what the close vote shows is that those justices who voted against the constitutionality of this EO fit in to one , or both of two categories–those who cannot read and comprehend English, or those who have failed to faithfully discharge their duties.
Again, indisputable.
Hahahahaha…

Period. (No pun intended)
I like it
No visas for women of child bearing age – and I mean 55 and younger.
Trump could issue an executive order prohibiting pregnant women, who are not US citizens, entry into the country and have ICE go to the birth hotels, arrest the foreign pregnant women and have them sent back to their home country. Chinese have a big birth operation in California for example.
John Thune.
Will history name him as “The One Man” that brought down the most free and people loving country to communism because of his hatred for President Trump. Blissfully ignoring over 80% of the U.S. voters wanting it to pass to keep their country free of corrupt elections.
John Thune.
One man alone, that could have prevented the U.S. fall to communism by simply changing the filibuster rule to allow a simple majority vote to pass the SAVE Act ensuring election integrity. This man sent the Senate on a 19 day vacation while the Socialist/Communist Dems are potentially working feverishly to cheat beyond all boundaries to steal and create bogus votes, knowing that they now have free rein to do so.
John Thune.
Thune will go down in history as the “one man” that could have, but would not save the greatest country on earth from a communist takeover.
How tall and proud he stands in his hatred for President Trump. The numbers are not there, he and his posse gloat and claim. It is said there are 50 yes votes available and without the filibuster, plus the tie breaking vote of VP Vance, the SAVE Act will pass.
The Supreme Court decided that Congress and Senate must create a federal law to address mail in ballots and Voter ID. The Congress has already passed a law. It is John Thune, the Senate Leader, who is passing the blame to other Senators for not doing so. Meanwhile he has in his power two options to get it passed.
John Thune.
Please bring the Senate back sir. Bring it back right after the July 4th holiday and get the SAVE Act passed. Don’t be that “ ONE MAN” in history . It is unbecoming of a Senate leader of a free nation.
If they are in “recess” can’t President Trump make his recess appointments?
They hold a pro forma session for a few minutes, then adjourn for the day.
Wethal…
Doesn’t this normally only occur when Senate is controlled
by the opposite Party?
What makes you think the Senate is not now controlled by the “opposite” party?
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
The Senate is controlled by the opposite party. Trump is the MAGA party. The Establishment/Rino party seems to be in control of the Senate.
Josh Hawley gaveled in one of those sham sessions last month when he thought we were not looking. 2nd time he has backstabbed Trump.
Shame on President Trump for not using his platform to make the American people aware of how much of a betrayal that this is. Most people have NO idea what could be accomplished by their recess and how simple it is to call one.
The entire GOP is
in open rebellion against their constituents.
They have some fraud ongoing that keeps the Senate in session even though they are gone.
And they ALL unanimously support this fraud through unanimous silence.
BTW Supremes ruled that recesses had to be 10 days or longer or recess appointment is invalid.
Not as long as Thune has a member gavel in for a short period.
What if we put a fence around the gavel “for repairs?”
What if we filled the gallery with MAGA patriots armed with their cameras and jeer at them when they gavel in?
Breathes the man, with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land!
Whose heart hath ne’er within him burn’d,
As home his footsteps he hath turn’d,
From wandering on a foreign strand!
If such there breathe, go, mark him well;
For him no Minstrel raptures swell;
High though his titles, proud his name,
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim;
Despite those titles, power, and pelf,
The wretch, concentred all in self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And, doubly dying, shall go down
To the vile dust, from which he sprung,
Unwept, unhonour’d, and unsung.

Especially relevant today.
Thune is the Benedict Arnold of our Republic!
Joined by ACB & Emperor John Roberts.
Thune is even worse than Benedict Arnold; he snatched victory from the jaws of defeat by defying the orders of weak Horatio Gates. America would have never won the Revolutionary War without the victory at the Battle of Saratoga, which brought the French off the sidelines.
I can’t think of one thing that Thune has done for us.
Running a close second to Judas while elbowing Pence out of the way.

Thune and his thugs do not do what they do because of hating President Trump.
They do it for money and power.
This is not a war about feelings. It is a war for control of this country and thus control of the most powerful organization on earth. Like all wars, it’s about money and power.
They are at war with us, the we the people of this country.
When you make it personal to President Trump (they hate “him”), you make it about him and them. In other words, you make it seem the war will be over if he is gone. Do you see that is not true?
The war is between us and them. Lucky for us, at this moment we have President Trump to lead our fight. Because of him we are still in the fight.
We are the ones they want to disseminate and control.
Illegal immigration has destroyed California. We’ve become Central America here and those of us who are non-Hispanic feel like foreigners in our own country now.
Not surprised the Deep State controlled Supreme Court ruled this way. I don’t know how you can make anything positive out of this ruling. The next Democrat president just got the green light to open the borders again! God Bless the end of America! 🙄👎😡

Excellent analogy!
There is a growing amount of crisis to add all up together.. so we’ve gone from bad to worse with this ruling.
You just provided one of the most stark examples of why the SCOTUS should have ruled against. I don’t care if their ruling was a strict interpretation of the wording, there is always a small loophole to find in order to fit the circumstance we as a country find ourselves in.
You would think….just as they have families like the rest of us…they would do everything in their power to provide safety. and security for their loved ones. This is beyond a selfish decision. Someone please tell Roberts his ass has been on full display for a while now….Everyone knows the game he plays and he has totally diminished the prestige of the position he holds. Anyone off the street would have gotten this right. Low as a Common Criminal. Roberts just told me my citizenship is basically worth a plane ticket and hotel stay
They suck on money and power. They are pigs at a trough sucking up all the money and power they can get.
They see themselves and their families as the elite who will be protected from scum. They live behind walls and have guards. And they have money to satisfy their cravings. By the way, their definition of scum includes us.
CA used to be 90% Anglo in 1970… now it’s 34%. CA was sparsely populated by Mexico by the time of our Victory in 1848. Los Angeles had only a few thousand inhabitants. Most of the Hispanics entered CA after 1980 so now are 40%. Welcome to Tijuana Norte.
There really aren’t words to describe the level of despondency this ridiculous betrayal of America has sent me into, but your comment reminds us that if nothing else, all public benefits headed to CA should end immediately; they’re giving Americans’ money to invaders.
This is why I happily left South Florida,and moved to The” Real America..”…The Florida Panhandle .yessiree!!!

All the Haitians and Syrians who were here under TPS and had kids can likely stay now.
Cue the “Separation of families” cries from the lefties if Trump tries to deport the parents.
All the Haitians and Syrians who were here under TPS can now apply for asylum, a green card, etc. They will die of old age here!
They can apply, but the applications can be denied. Trump replaced a lot of immigration judges.
https://www.npr.org/2025/09/23/nx-s1-5550915/trump-immigration-judges
Judge Boasberg might disagree with you!
Who says they have to die of old age?
Like the Divider-in-Chief’s aunt, who ignored several deportation orders, lived in public housing on the public dime and received a tremendous amount of healthcare paid for by Americans.
She never left and Obama never contributed to her considerable upkeep.
Separate them immediately. Give these grifters a reason to leave.
Do the math …. The Supreme Court just set the table for 2026 and 2028.
The late arriving BALLOTS being counted … until the desired results are achieved.
Defining Birthright Citizenship as anybody birthed inside the US despite the status of their parents.
Impact: Consider that Joe Biden’s Auto-Pen legitimized the RESIDENT and GREEN CARD like status of every immigrant … legal and illegal who was in the US as of 20 January 2025. The Courts have delayed decisions on President Trump’s efforts to remove the Auto-Pen EO’s (that’s right NO legislation was ever put in place supporting the Auto-Pen).
So …. for 2026 there are NOW 15-25 MILLION Obama-DACA’s and those who entered before 2020 are now VOTING US Citizens. (25 Million is Schumer’s number)
For 2028 … all those who entered and still in the US .. as well as here LEGALLY per the Auto-Pen become Voting Citizens … and kids of the DACA’s start reaching VOTING AGE … another 15-25 MILLION VOTERS-BALLOTS more join the DACA BALLOTS. This is nearly a 40-50 MILLION BALLOTS distributed across the US.
Plus, now consider the impact on reallocation of seats in the House of Representatives … this alone counters any redistricting by the “republicans” … because ALL are counted .. not just voters … it is no exaggeration to say this includes nearly 100 MILLION Residents.
This is why now is the time to fight! Let’s not take this anymore.
Cue the stories about visiting futbawl fans amazed at how great we are.🤯
GOPe does not want elections to be determined by actual physical votes of US citizens. And SCOTUS is in support.
In other words, the IC demands that they continue to select our leaders

Barrett and Roberts are traitors.
Barrett? Nothing good comes out of South Bend.
Aggie I did not see her devout Catholicism as a positive at all- given the state of the Catholic church today- especially after these most recent Popes we’ve endured.
And I say this as a Catholic that is disgusted with the Church from watching the sex abuse scandal unfold locally- and that is just ONE reason.
I’m not one bit surprised at how she turned out -she’s likely owned by the Vatican itself for cripes sake.
ACB’s two warning signs…
A: Adopted two Haitian children.
B: Cried when George Floyd died.
We were warned! ⚠️
I agree, all the bad signs were there.
She has been indoctrinated with social teaching promoted by Dom Helder Camara. The same priest George Soros brought to Davos, and admired by Francis. The archbishop in our area frequently quotes him.
The kids and staff at Catholic schools are saturated with it also.
Her virtue-signaling adoption of Hatians told us all we needed to know about her. As did her vote to allow lockdowns of churches while liquor stores, pot shops, and strip clubs got to stay open.
I’m still waiting for the first pro America female justice. I’m picking up a pattern.
That word no longer means anything.
I won’t live to see the USA celebrate 300 and I doubt if the USA will live to see it too.
Thankfully I will not either, Would Hate to live to see it.
My Granddaughters will be here to see it.
As will mine.
God protect them because their gubmint will not.
I’m not sure the USA has survived to 250 after this huge betrayal.
I know we hate doomers here, and I hate to be one. We also are realists.
In addition to ending birth tourism by restricting visas for countries pushing this, there should also be an end to chain immigration, which came in in the 1965 Immigration Reform Act.
This Act, one of which’s advocate was then Dem Rep from MA Teddy Kennedy, allowed citizens here to bring in family members, who, when they got citizenship, would bring in…
Even if the birth tourism babies show up from their parents’ countries in 18 years , they should not be allowed to sponsor family members who would not qualify under merit immigration by themselves.
Yeah, “Family Reunification” with people that create families the size of a small village- what a great idea that all was.
/heavy S
Roberts and Barrett again.
What are the dangers to a nation of women illegally in that nation or present as a tourist or on a temporary visa being able to birth children who are automatically deemed to be citizens of that nation even when the fathers are also not citizens of that nation?
Grok:
The primary concerns center on sovereignty, incentives for uncontrolled migration, fiscal burdens, demographic pressures, integration challenges, and national security. These are debated fiercely, with data varying by source (e.g., restrictionist groups like CIS/Heritage vs. open-migration advocates like Cato/MPI). Most countries worldwide reject unconditional *jus soli* (birthright citizenship by soil) for children of non-citizens, favoring *jus sanguinis* (by blood/parental citizenship) or conditional versions.
1. Erosion of Sovereignty and Immigration Control
Granting automatic citizenship to children of illegal entrants, tourists, or temporary visa holders (e.g., students, workers) bypasses a nation’s ability to control its membership. Parents not “subject to the full jurisdiction” of the host country (owing primary allegiance elsewhere) can still confer citizenship benefits.
– This creates “anchor” effects: Citizen children complicate deportations (though parents remain deportable legally). At age 21, the child can sponsor parents/siblings for legal status, creating chain migration outside normal quotas.
– Birth tourism: Foreign nationals (often from China, Russia, etc.) enter on visas specifically to give birth, securing citizenship advantages (passport, future benefits, education). Estimates for the US: ~22k–36k annually from tourist visas alone, plus more from illegals/temporary stays. Industries in source countries advertise packages costing tens of thousands.
– Nations lose consent-based membership. Historical intent (e.g., US 14th Amendment post-slavery) targeted those under full political jurisdiction, not transients or violators. Most of Europe, Asia, and elsewhere reformed away from broad *jus soli* (UK 1983, Ireland 2005, Australia/NZ shifts, Dominican Republic restrictions).
Critics argue this undermines rule of law: illegal presence is rewarded, encouraging more crossings/overstays.
2. Fiscal and Economic Burdens
Citizen children access public benefits (education K-12, emergency Medicaid, etc.), while parents may draw indirect support or stay longer. Low-skilled migrant households often show net fiscal drains over lifetimes (taxes vs. services), per National Academies and CIS analyses—education and welfare costs hit early.
– Taxpayer costs for births, schooling, healthcare. Opponents highlight uncompensated hospital care and long-term entitlements.
– Counter: Proponents (e.g., some economic models) project high lifetime GDP contributions from citizen children (~$7.7T cumulative in one US estimate), citing education access and workforce participation. However, this assumes successful integration and ignores opportunity costs or displacement effects on natives.
– Broader strain on welfare states in high-immigration contexts. Temporary visitors impose costs without long-term reciprocity.
3. Demographic and Cultural Cohesion Risks
Unrestricted policy accelerates population change via migration + higher fertility among some migrant groups. Without strong assimilation, this can create parallel societies, reduced social trust, and political fragmentation (Putnam’s diversity research, European examples of integration failures).
– Children may identify with parental culture/nationality, especially if dual citizenship is allowed. Large-scale inflows (hundreds of thousands annually in big nations) challenge language, values, and national identity.
– Evidence from Europe: Pre-reform *jus soli* linked to “parallel societies,” higher crime/radicalism in some non-citizen cohorts; conditional reforms sometimes improved outcomes.
– Long-term: Shifts voting patterns, policy preferences (e.g., toward more open immigration), straining cohesion in homogeneous or high-trust societies.
4. Security and Exploitation Risks
– Hostile actors: Birth tourism from adversarial nations (e.g., China, Russia) could create sleeper networks with citizen passports for travel, banking, influence. US Senate probes found organized schemes with visa fraud.
– Statelessness/underclass counter-risk: Ending it could create undocumented children (potentially millions projected in US models), raising humanitarian issues, enforcement costs, and a marginalized population prone to exploitation.
– Dual loyalty or divided allegiance in conflicts.
5. International Context and Alternatives
Only ~30–35 countries grant unconditional *jus soli*, mostly Americas (US, Canada, much of Latin America). Europe/Asia predominantly use parental citizenship + residency requirements. Nations like Germany added conditional *jus soli* for better integration. Reforming (e.g., requiring legal permanent resident parents) aligns with global norms, deters tourism/illegal incentives, while protecting genuine cases via naturalization.
Empirical trade-offs exist: Proponents emphasize humanitarian/economic upsides and assimilation; critics focus on perverse incentives, costs, and loss of control. Data debates persist (birth tourism scale, net fiscal impact). Many nations manage migration better by tying citizenship to parental status and integration, avoiding automatic transmission to transients. Unrestricted policy maximizes openness but risks long-term sustainability in welfare democracies facing mass low-skilled inflows. Policy depends on a nation’s values, capacity, and goals for identity and resources.
so the court ruled yesterday that states can count ballots until the cows come home. That’s the clickbait headline, but under that contained in the ruling was a simple solution….. congress can fix this easily with a new law. Ditto for electronic voting machines, ditto for mail-in voting, ditto for ballot drop boxes and vote harvesting. Ditto for all of the fraud techniques that have been slowly deployed over the past 20 years in nearly every state.
The GOP won’t even pass a simple, sensible voter ID law. Anyone really think they will fix these other fraudulent processes? Of course not. We have the house and the senate and the WH and nothing has been done except business as usual and even that is iffy.
You still think your GOP is the “lesser of two evils”? If you do why? For people that say we just need to elect more MAGA. True on the surface, but the timeclock isn’t infinite here. The 2026 midterms will likely totally blunt Trump and the 2028 presidential election might finish the job on our ability to ever take back the country.
If you don’t already hate the GOP, you will on Nov 4th…… they are much worse than you have ever thought they are…….much worse
The SAVE Act would require all ballots be received by election day to be counted.
Save Act greatly limits those that can send in those ballots.
True. But really, it is more that the GOP isn’t real; simply doesn’t exist.
It is just a group of Democrats with a different name plate.
<so the court ruled yesterday that states can count ballots until the cows come home. >
It will be pasture bedtime 🙂
Udderly ridiculous. I am not a-mooosed.
You also, you wordsmiths are so much fun 😀 😀
😀 I see what you did there 😀
I agree. And while everybody likes to point out that it was Democrats who supported slavery and Jim Crow, it is the Republicans who essentially eradicated the 10’th Amendment, established corporatism, and ratified this abomination known as the 14’th amendment – via which garbage like ‘birthright citizenship’ and abortion were/are justified. A pox on them.
The Court was right to kick the ball to Congress, where it belongs, and to not legislate from the bench.
The legislation is sitting before the Senate, which does not want to pass it because so many of their “unopposed” members are sitting there only because of fraud. Institutionalized fraud.
And the voters “hero’s” are not worthy of that moniker. They are just as guilty as the rest !
Trump is already going after the birth tourism racket.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/trump-admin-puts-alleged-birth-233547674.html
He should do something about the Chinese going to the Northern Marianas. Obama waived visas for Chinese for this US terriory.

Not surprised at all. This was coming because the SC did not want to be the ones to deny this nor to be the instrument that sends home immigrants of any status. They are cowards of the first order, but we knew that. How Roe ever got overturned is a mystery.
Now the question is will the Congress pass legislation tightening the requirements for birth right citizenship. So the child born here has automatic citizenship but there can be a lot of additions and restrictions on that.
Child must be accompanied by immediate family (mom and dad and siblings) who do not get automatic citizenship but must apply for it and go through the entire process and live here with the child from birth. Child must live in the USA from birth. Child must NOT have dual citizenship. Child has to live in USA for so many years, say 20, after age 21 before they can run for any federal office but cannot run for VP or P as stated in the Constitution because they are not NATURAL BORN citizens(another thorny issue that needs defining by the SC). No extended family can come and be US citizens with the child. No special entry for Grandparents, aunts uncles cousins.
Many things can be placed onto this birth right citizenship horrible ruling. The only issue is making it stick if a democrat is Pres. or if the Dems control Congress. The SC really gave the middle finger to America and the Constitution with this one and the one yesterday. Don’t give up though. There are solutions and remember God must have a plan for all this to work out. Meanwhile, those justices who voted for this now will pay a heavy price for harming this nation with a huge hit by them today.
KEEP FIGHTING.
So let me get this straight-
The Supreme Court just basically gave the green light to mail-in ballot fraud by allowing blue states to count votes as long as they deem necessary After election DAY?
AND
People who break the law and illegally enter our country or are just visiting our country and have a child- the child is automatically a US citizen ?
Seems like a one-two punch to destroy our sovereignty as a nation.
And our only recourse is a feckless Congress.
Just wow…..
Yup, As long as someone from the Post Office provides the DNC with “official” rubber stamps so they can stamp all the ballots with the election date on them and it will be called “the most secure election ever”.
Retired Magistrate here: States have the power to set their own election laws with some oversight from the Supreme Court and Congress could pass election laws if they wanted to but they don’t. The Save America Act should be a no brainer but there it sits. As for birthright citizenship that has been in place 158 years, not saying that it is right, but I didn’t think that the Supreme Court would over turn something that has been in place for 158 years.
Regardless of these recent Supreme Court decisions my husband and I are getting ready to celebrate the 250th birthday of this great, albeit flawed country. I was here for the 200th birthday and thank GOD I am here for this one but I certainly won’t be around for the next since I am 78 years old.
Best wishes-always appreciate your comments
Election Day definition has been in place since the Constitution was written and certified in 1789 I believe.. That’s at least 237 years or so and has been implemented as ONE DAY for much of that 237 years until recently. Yet the SC just refused to define the word DAY that is the Constitutional defining word for holding elections in America.
They apparently didn’t think it was important to take that clause into consideration in their decision even though it’s been the law of the land for all that time. They played with the word ‘received’ and states election rights and Congressional actions needed to make it work in their favor. Time implemented didn’t matter in that election changing decision of theirs.
I am more concerned about the SCOTUS Election Day decision than the Birthright Citizenship decision. If we cannot conduct fair elections, our ability to vote out an unpopular or even tyrannical actors/regimes becomes impossible.
The rampant abuse of the “birthright citizenship” clause has really only been a thing since the 60s, the change in our immigration laws, and the Johnson induced welfare state. Not for 150+ years/
That was when La Raza began their plan to replace us – and make us pay for it.
Today’s decision is their de facto victory.
I usually agree with you on most points, but this no, birthright citizenship has not been in place for 158 years. Birthright citizenship of those subject to the jurisdiction of the United States as been in place for 158 years.
Retired Magistrate here; The 158 years goes back to the 14th amendment and the Supreme court in U.S. vs. Wong Kim Ark (1898) applied the 14th amendment to children of foreign born parents who were born on U.S. soil regardless of their nationality or immigration status.
So while I am certainly not happy with the Supreme Court’s decision on birthright citizenship this really is nothing new. The court ruled 6-2 in that decision and I believe the court relied on the 1898 case in their ruling issued today.
This abuse of the XIVth Amendment really started in 1982-83, giving American birth certificates to the babies born to people who had stolen into the US started in CA and worked its way through the country, state by state. I think Texas held out the longest. Perhaps if we’d had an American First president who objected sooner it would not have become such an ingrained thing.
My point was only to distinguish birthright citizenship as it is unconstitutionally applied today, from the constitutional definition of birthright citizenship as ratified 158 years ago in 1868, in which jus soli by itself proscribes birthright citizenship; it must also include the element of jus sanguine that is only received through the citizenship of the parent, which is defined by the phrase “…subject to the jurisdiction thereof…”
There is no ambiguity regarding the definition of that phrase in 1866 when it was passed by Congress. The debates of Congress on that matter are clear. It is irrelevant that it is nothing new, except in highlighting the unconstitutional method of legislating from the bench that has gotten completely out of hand, whether from Wong 128 years ago, or worse, from Brennan slipping in a footnote in Plyler 44 years ago that gave us anchor babies.
My point is law means what it says, when it is said; moving away from that is to our great detriment.
It was not understood as providing birthright citizenship until recently. No one would have heard of birthright citizenship in the late 1800s. LBJ began imposing it by executive order, and legal “scholars” twisted the meaning of the 14th Amendment to justify it.
We are cursed by both Roberts, and that lady with three names….no, the white one…
And no other country in the world allows either to occur in their country. I think France allows some restricted mail-in voting, but that’s it, I think.
It just shows how absolutely corrupted our legal profession is, from the bottom to the top. The way laws are written then subsequently interpreted by political legal hacks allows for many really stupid judgements.
So these birthright citizens can have a child (which would make him natural born), raise him here for 14 years, let him spend the next 21 years in a foreign country, bring him back here where he can become President.
Or they can fly in on a six-month tourist visa, with the woman in her second trimester, have the kid, get the birth certificate, fly home, and 18 years later the kid claims US citizenship. Or imagine the number of military academy-trained males that show up at age 18 who just want a peaceful life in the US…
This has been going on for so long that there are now over a million “American citizens” adults in China who have grown up as Communists.
With this ruling we’ll probably end up with one of them will be president soon.
God help us all.
Has there been birth tourism of Chinese into the US who then return with their children to mainland China?
Grok:
Yes, there has been documented birth tourism involving Chinese nationals traveling to the US (and US territories) to give birth, with many returning to mainland China afterward.
This practice, often called “birth tourism” or “maternity tourism,” leverages the US’s birthright citizenship (14th Amendment) to secure US passports for children. It has involved organized businesses, “maternity hotels,” visa facilitation, and high costs, primarily targeting wealthier Chinese families.
Key Evidence and Scale
– Organized industry: Federal investigations and raids (e.g., 2015 in Southern California) targeted operations catering mostly to Chinese clients. One scheme (You Win USA) served over 500 customers, charging $40k–$80k each, with apartments in Irvine, CA. Operators pleaded guilty to immigration fraud. Similar companies advertised packages including visas, housing, medical care, and coaching to conceal pregnancy at borders.
– Motivations: During China’s one-child policy (1980–2015), it helped evade restrictions (overseas births often weren’t counted). Other drivers include access to better US healthcare, future educational/economic opportunities for the child, and a “hedge” against uncertainty in China. Some families planned bicultural upbringings.
– Return to China: Reports consistently note that after birth and obtaining US documents (often within weeks), many mothers and families return to China to raise the children there. The children grow up as Chinese citizens (under PRC rules) but hold US passports. Concerns include potential future use for education, voting, or sponsoring parents at age 21.
– Numbers: Exact figures are hard to track (no official US stats), but estimates from investigations, media, and officials suggest tens of thousands of Chinese births annually at peak, with cumulative figures in the hundreds of thousands to over a million over years/decades. Chinese media reportedly referenced ~500 birth tourism companies in China. High-profile claims (e.g., Peter Schweizer) cite 750k–1.5M, though these are debated and not fully verified by federal data.
– US territories: Saipan (Northern Mariana Islands) saw heavy use due to visa-free entry for Chinese; over 70% of some years’ births were to PRC parents, who often returned home soon after.
Enforcement and Context
US authorities have cracked down via raids, visa scrutiny (e.g., at LAX), and prosecutions for fraud (lying on visa apps about trip purpose). The industry reportedly declined after 2015 enforcement but has persisted in various forms. It has drawn bipartisan and national security attention, with debates over birthright citizenship reforms.
Similar patterns exist with other nationalities (e.g., Russian), but Chinese cases received outsized attention due to scale and commercialization.
In short, this is a well-documented phenomenon supported by law enforcement actions, congressional reports, and media investigations—not just anecdotal or speculative.
——–
Can the children in China vote in US elections via absentee ballots once they reach the required age for voting?
Yes, these US citizen children (born in the US) can generally vote in US federal elections via absentee ballots once they turn 18, even while living in China.
Key Details
– Eligibility: US citizens aged 18 or older can vote absentee from abroad under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA). This covers federal elections (President, Vice President, US Senate, and US House). Many states also allow voting in state/local elections and referendums.
– Process:
1. Register and request an absentee ballot using the Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) — available online via FVAP.gov. It serves as both registration and ballot request.
2. Submit to the election office in their “voting residence” (typically the last US address of a parent or where the family was connected; for those never resident in the US, it follows parental last residence in eligible states).
3. Ballots can often be received/sent by mail, email, or fax (varies by state). They must meet state deadlines, often earlier for overseas voters.
4. Renew the FPCA annually or when moving.
– Special case for those never lived in the US: Since these children were born in the US but raised abroad, they are treated similarly to overseas citizens. Most states (around 38 + DC) allow them to vote based on a parent’s last US residence. A smaller number of states have restrictions — check via FVAP.gov for specifics.
Practical Notes for China
– The US Embassy/Consulates in China provide guidance and sometimes assistance (e.g., dropping off forms), but voting is handled through US state election offices.
– Challenges include mailing times, time zones, and ensuring ballots arrive on time, but email/fax options help in many states.
– No requirement to have lived in the US as an adult — citizenship by birth is sufficient.
Resources: Start at FVAP.gov (Federal Voting Assistance Program) for state-specific guides, or VoteFromAbroad.org. US embassies in China also post annual voting reminders.
In practice, participation rates among overseas voters are low, but the legal right exists and is actively supported by federal and state systems.
The Chinese don’t even have to come to the US. They can go to the Northern Marianas, a US territory in the Pacific, and get a US birth certificate there.

Make that illegal to do somehow. It’s a different deal than the mainland or a state right? Tweak the language somehow or take away the option somehow. It’s considered US owned but with an asterisk as to certain rights correct? Make this one of those asterisks.
Trump can rescind Obama’s visa waiver. Require a nine-months wait after a visa application.
Require visa applications to any US territory by more countries. Make them wait months. Airlines are hesitant to board extremely pregnant women in case they give birth in flight.
This can be changed by laws and tightened down so much they can never do it without great restrictions. Trump can do EOs but those would be challenged immediately and probably shut down. But the regulations fall under whose jurisdiction again? Immigration and the Executive branch correct? There’s where something might be done. Didn’t the SC give Pres. Trump some nice wins on what he can do with immigration? Use those.
That’s what they are setting up-our gederal judiciary is loaded with foreign born persons without connection (or fidelity) to American founding structure and principals. Soon all theee branches pf government will be thus compromised.
No they are NOT natural born if neither parent is not a citizen.
Right.
But the SCOTUS ruled that they ARE citizens by birthright.
It seems that there is at least the possibility that some members of the SC in order to appear to be non-partisan and set the future judgement about them in the direction of ‘an independent jurist’, might be going a bit out of their way to fashion their decisions on certain matters against the grain of expectation/hope constitutional law. I am far from an expert, but along the lines of the famous phrase, ‘I think he doth protest too much’, a few members may be compromising constitutional duty ever so slightly to push their decisions to the ‘other’ side.
I’m worried about the election machines and mail in ballots. If the elections are not stolen, better people are elected and we can fix the bad Supreme Court rulings through legislation
Rix rule #1, Do not post comments when I’m angry or when I have been drinking.
I don’t drink.
Thanks for taking a “deep breath,” Rix. I’m sure you’ll weigh in a bit later with a thoughtful comment🙂
Ultimately…’It’s a big club and you ain’t in it….’
All five woman on the Court voted to openly invade America with their hostile wombs today.
Even the illegal child adopter with the seizure problem, who was captured and controlled by the Deep State long ago.
Seizure prob? Who are you referring to in your 2Nd sentence Older?
I’d like to know who the 5th women is.
But they are probably one and the same.
Thomas adopted a relative. Roberts adopted kids.
But I’d never describe Thomas as invading America with his womb.
Provided hysterectomies have not been necessary, there are only 4 wombs hostilely assaulting us.
Unless that is why Roberts needed to adopt.
There are many who suspect that Roberts’ adopted kids were the original reason he was so easily controlled. I do not know why or have any details.
Many believe his kids were adopted illegally. Apparently, Obama knew about it and holds it over Roberts.
The Chief Justice has had a problem with seizures over the years. He was given medication at the time to control them.
There are only four women on the Court.
5 including Roberts.
I concede the point.
Today’s Supreme Court decisions are what I expected.
I think we all were.
Hostile lawfare, sticking it, once again, to “WE THE PEOPLE”.
Don’t invite any pregnant women into your home; if they drop a baby on your couch you will be required to PUT THEIR NAME ON THE DEED TO YOUR HOUSE.
Because they now have part ownership and decision making rights over what used to be your home.
Over at BB and TGP, each site already has over two thousand responses to this horrible USSC ruling, outcome.
And the comments are not happy ones.
Ha, BB is now at over 4000…
This decision on birthright citizenship…and endless mail in ballots leaves no doubt that we are a National Security Crisis….and as such PT should call for extreme measures in order to counter what this means.
As Root said in an interview this AM, if the President calls up such an order, he can not be challenged in court. This is the Washington…Lincoln ….moment of our time. If only.
Think of it, we have a handful of visible people deciding the fate of our nation and the fate of 360 million people. How is this possible. How can we let this stand.
Unfortunately its more that a handfull. The fact that foreign pregnant women have been coming to the US at (9 months – 2 days) to give birth to American citizens has been going on for at least 20 years. Every congress has known about it and decided to do nothing. So while this decision does not help, many more people before made a decision to allow it to occur. Like immigration reform, health care reform, elections reform – congress is a whole lotta do-nothing people.
The irony of this decision, based on the XIVth Amendment?
It was never needed. At the time it was passed it was already completely superfluous. And the writers of this legislation ensured in their recorded discussion that what has happened to us would never happen.
Supposedly ICE has been prioritizing illegal criminals.
Today that changes – they should prioritize each and every female of arguably child- bearing age. TODAY.
Change visa requirements for countries that are the source of birth tourism.
End Temporary Protected Status for more countris, and start deporting them.
Probably some Haitians and Syrians who will stay because of an anchor baby even thought their TPS ended.
They’re all criminals.
Amy Comey Embarrassment does it again.
Pragmatic.
President Trump is a fighter. And that’s why we love him.
Never pessimistic. Always seeking an alternative.
I don’t see how legislation can alter an actual Amendment to the Constitution. One is now an official part of the Constitution, passed by the country, and one is only passed by Congress.
And our current corrupt Congress, many members of whom are dual citizens and virulently anti-American, will never pass anything helpful. They won’t even pass the Save America Act, which is already too little too late.
They REFUSED to save America.
He explains it here:
“The biggest and most consequential Decision issued by the Court, by far, is the Slaughter Case, which overturned the very famous Humphrey’s Executor Rule. This whole concept of “Power” has been fought over for nearly 100 years, going all the way back to Franklin Delanor Roosevelt, where a large slice of his Power was taken away. He fought to regain it, even wanting to “pack the Court,” but was unsuccessful in doing so. This Decision gives tremendous additional Power back to the Presidency, where it belongs. It is an Honor to be the sitting President who, after all these years, WON this very important, and hard fought, Case. We had other good Victories, too, and we also had the Birthright Citizenship loss, which we will work to correct in Congress, but the big SLAUGHTER, was SLAUGHTER. The Republican Party was treated very fairly by the United States Supreme Court. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/116840065501020055
If this was even remotely possible an EO would not have been needed nor would taking it to SCOTUS. Even many of the far less consequential EOs have been nixed by judges far below SCOTUS. To think that a Uniparty Congress would touch this with a 10 foot pole is laughable.
He’s our greatest cheerleader.
Coney Barrett, who cried with her two adopted black daughters whilst binge watching George Floyd videos.
Fill in the blank:
Can’t do it. It would all be four-letter words.
@$%# or &#%$?
😁
She’s indefensible at this point. Roberts equally so.
Nothing good comes outta South Bend.
agreed. Barrett got up there quoting the Federalist Papers and whatnot, hoodwinking the conservative base in this country on her originalist bonafides. A totally dishonest woman.
Same with John Roberts, although I never thought he was ever a constitutionalist – you could tell that during his confirmation hearings that he was a slimy slippery weasel, in spite of Ted Cruz’s ‘shepherding’.
Here’s a suggestion, from the comments on GP.
Now it means nothing to be a US citizen.
SCOTUS effectively deleted “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” from the 14th Amendment.
– – –
US v Wong Kim Ark established four exceptions to birthright citizenship including “enemies within and during a hostile occupation of part of our territory”
Isn’t that what illegal immigration is???
Trump should reissue the same EO with a declaration that illegal immigration is an invasion and illegals still here are occupiers. Cite the above exception and revoke their children’s citizenship.
“The biggest and most consequential Decision issued by the Court, by far, is the Slaughter Case, which overturned the very famous Humphrey’s Executor Rule.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/116840065501020055
Probably been said or asked before-why did they insert “subject to the jurisdiction therof” ?
What was the purpose of adding that? Otherwise it would have been clear that any person born in the U.S. is a citizen, but they added that qualification. What does it actually mean?
Did any of the supremes answer why that didn’t affect the meaning as they interpreted it to be.
🤬
At the time it was meant to exclude the children of citizens of a foreign nation – the Indian tribes.
Oh, I just saw that Robert’s stated tha “Subject to the jurisdiction thereof” meant that when in our country they must follow our laws therefore they are subject to the jurisdictions of our country.
BS-they didn’t need to add that because without it it says any person born in the U.S. becomes a citizen of the U.S.
Roberts is a corrupt parasite who doesn’t know history or the Constitution. He just made it up out of thin air.
Anyone who watched the daily caravans during the Divider-in-Chief’s reign and during the tenure of the Corpse-in-Stolen-Office could not deny that what happened was an actual invasion.
Every time the Kenyan said “that’s not who we are” GAGGG I thought, “who we are now seems to be a peoples too stupid to recognize an INVASION.”
And I wondered what more it would take for the American populace to see it. Then we had a large incursion of Chinese men of military age literally wearing camouflage and bearing arms … and … nothing. Still no recognition by the public at large, those people who read NYT and listen to NPR never noticed that America is not America anymore.
I miss it.
Being a relentless optimist, or a tell me what’s working, not what isn’t, kind of person, I’ll take a different tack to the majority of posters here, regarding the birthright citizenship issue, by saying strategically it’s a long-term defeat but it’s a short-term win. What do I mean?
Long-term defeat: because overtime this will impact the demographics of the country and the political landscape, but only if the legislative status quo is maintained.
Short-term victory: because the Mid-Terms are a battle about motivation and freezing and fixing your opponent so that you can portray them in the worst possible light. The Democrat Party have done the work for the Republicans with the DSA (Democratic Socialist Amateurs) premature victory lap and following ego fuelled blab-fest, revealing the monster behind the K-12 constructed mask. A victory for Trump here would have been a huge motivational boost to the Left and allowed the MSM to run a 24/7 campaign that demonised Republicans for denying citizenship.
The logical, legal arguments would have been immediately swallowed up and replaced by a purely emotional response, potentially influencing swing voters, and drowning out the murderous anti-American Communists who would have time to replace their mask. Every extreme candidate would have their campaign schedule planned till election day, week, month? and their Republican challenger would have to run the conservatives-only gauntlet of public condemnation of the policy, or be condemned.
This totally artificial energy and impetus would force the Republicans onto the defensive, as SC members would be threatened, possibly assassinated at worst, and at best trigger ‘massive’ demonstrations (don’t think the DS handlers weren’t ready to go at the drop of a hat, if the result had gone a different way).
This way, frustrating though it is, the Left are denied their outrage machine, an artificial boost in the polls and a story that cedes the initiative, and instead have to be content with gloating headlines about ‘a serious defeat for Trump’ that can be reheated a few more times before it becomes an unpalatable, easily forgettable stodge, edible only for the true cultist.
Contrarian thinking; I like it.
Okay, I’m with you.
We haven’t heard the last from President Trump on this yet.
There is only one way out of this bad decision by the SCOTUS today.
In the midterms we need a massive wave of Republicans to storm the polls and attain a filibuster proof Senate (at least 60 Senators) in addition to winning the House. Then we can pass laws that will make this SCOTUS decision effectively impotent.
And if RINOs try to stop it, fire the parliamentarian, and pass it through reconciliation. We’re through playing around.
Blake on The Charlie Kirk Show just mentioned the possibility of giving every woman who enters, as a non citizen, diplomatic status.
While she would be immune from prosecution for any crimes, at least any children she bore in the country would not be given part ownership of our country.
I think the trade off would be worth it.
I can’t believe that SCOTUS affirmed Birthright Citizenship
Sure, the 3 libs were assured to vote in favor of it, maybe even Roberts was a given too. But I was CERTAIN the others would vote it out.
I was wrong.
This is ridiculous!
Despite how you feel about immigration, the SC got it right today.
For those of you not familair with the Constitution – there is a constitutional guarantee (bolded and underlined for emphasis) that anyone born within the United States automatically becomes an American citizen. This is protected by the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, which dictates that all persons born in the U.S. and subject to its jurisdiction are citizens.
I haven’t read yet who dissented, but those judges should be removed immediately.
The 14th Amendment regarding birth right citizenship was meant to affirm that children of slaves WERE citizens at birth. All of the writings around debate of the amendment state this. It did not apply to anyone else. The justices who changed the meaning of the amendment were too scared to opine correctly. It will now have to be dealt with by Congress.
Go do some research, commie.
It was granting rights to former slaves. Nothing else.
This says your understanding of the 14th Amendment is flawed.
https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc30867/m1/12/
This is what I thought a legitimate SC decision would be based on, why I dared to hope they would do the right thing. Because what tells you the original intent better than the original intent? And this is not ambiguous.
The word is Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a 91 page dissent to the ruling. Normally he is much more concise, something tells me the majority opinion infuriated him. I will have to read it myself of course to know for sure.
You are a historical illiterate. The 14th Amendment was specific to slavery, not anyone else, and certainly not illegal aliens. You are a commie troll, and you should be removed immediately.
What part don’t you understand with “irrespective of race, ethnicity, or national origin of their parents.”
That’s not what it says genius.
AMENDMENT XIV
Section 1.
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. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
I’ll say it again, you are a historical illiterate.
Remind me to stay out of the hospital he works in.
With statements like this “doc” has made here, as someone who decides actions in emergencies, they should have their judgment scrutinized.
“I haven’t read yet who dissented, but those judges should be removed immediately.”
Though you have not read the dissents, you are convinced the judges should be removed. Do you also treat patients without finding out what their symptoms are first? Because that is every bit as stupid as what you stated.
Judges have an obligation to uphold the Constitution, not a President’s wishes.
I wasn’t expecting the court to outlaw birthright citizenship just because it would please President Trump; I had hoped that the enough justices would be knowledgeable enough about the Constitution and history, and rule against this insanity.
And what law applies to removing judges simply because people like you don’t like their opinions?
So what category of people that come to the U.S. are not subject to our jurisdiction. Probably foreign diplomats, but who else?
Illegal aliens are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States in the context of the 14th amendment. Are they subject to our laws? Yes, but that’s a completely different question. They don’t mean the same thing.
Illegal aliens and diplomats are subject to the jurisdiction of their home countries, not the U.S.
Umm… no:
Despite the author of the 14th Amendment’s citizenship clause, Senator Jacob Howard, specifically stating it did NOT apply to persons born in the United States to aliens:
Every person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States.
This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons.
One should remain silent and thought a fool, instead of opening one’s mouth and removing all doubt.
Too late.
The 14th amendment was adopted by more than 2/3rds of the members of Congress and thereafter ratified by 3/4ths of the states. Yet, nowhere can the Court or its proponents point to all those elected representatives at the federal and state level who argued for birthright citizenship for the children of aliens — illegal aliens of all matter! In fact, it wasn’t even on their collective mind. They were dealing with Reconstruction, which was going poorly.
No, this is not a constitutional decision. It’s a cowardly decision. An abomination giving constitutional protection to what is illegal conduct.
https://truthsocial.com/@marklevinshow/116840189059289005
Actually, they did deal with aliens – they were trying to craft it in such a way as to exclude the children of the various Indian tribes. Those tribes at the time did not want to be citizens of the United States and the amendment was written to accommodate that.
It was a purely political decision.
The SCOTUS has long-since been compromised by the CJ.
Let’s be honest, Mary McMord Snook, and her Flying Monkeys of IC wanted it decided this way.
Ergo… 🤷♀️
All roads…
… and from there you will need a boat.

Bingo.
Stop the visas, stop the traveling to breed like rodents.
Supposedly, Secretary of State Rubio could immediately change this specific policy without any Congressional or Presidential permission needed. If that is correct, then it needs to happen TODAY!

“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. …”
By today’s decision the SC has definitely determined that La Raza has won. They’ve won their original written declared goal of outproducing and outnumbering the American people.
The SC gave them the win. Done. Fini.
Anyone who knows about Clarence Thomas dissents knows they are almost always short and sweet.
The fact that he wrote a 91 page dissent for this monstrosity of a decision on birthright shows how absolutely infuriated he is.

The birthright citizenship ruling is a bummer, but we have lived with this for years. The advantage now is that it is out in the open and POTUS can push to get changes especially restricting birth tourism. Remember we lived with Roe vs Wade for 50 years, we can overcome.
Two republican nominated SCOTUS justices voted down the mail-in voting and birthright citizenship cases, both of which are genuinely existential to preserving the nation under the Constitution. Is this the ultimate national betrayal and worst judicial irony?
Add the scuttling of the SAVE Act and you have the trifecta of doom for the Republic.
Three fastballs right over the plate and the Republicans refused to swing the bat. The final out is recorded and the DS wins the future.
No hyperbole intended.
PRESIDENT TRUMP

If this travesty of a decision by the Roberts court on birthright citizenship teaches us anything, it’s that we cannot survive another “celebrity” appointment to the court like the execrable Barrett. She was to be the golden girl of originalism, one of the top contenders, endorsed wholeheartedly by the establishment Federalist Society. The gold has worn off and we see now the dross underneath.
This one decision ensures that one of the chief magnets for coming to the U.S. remains – that of automatic citizenship if you happen to give birth to a child here, along with the ensuing chain migration of family. The dissent in this SC decision made powerful arguments, but at the end of the day majority rules and the majority didn’t have the will to make other than a political decision, all out of historical context, a decision that would have horrified the proponents of the 14th amendment.
Roberts’ “legacy” is already cemented – he deserves the despite that he’s earned. But Justice Amy Coney “hold my beer” Barrett proves time and again that she’s a contender. In the battle for chief judicial reprobate (and I use that term carefully), she has signaled, once again, that she is never to be counted out.

Well we knew the three women on the left would not decide based on the actual words or the law, we hoped ACB would.
This whole thing brings up the issue of the radical activist “I’m not a biologist” illegally placed into high office by virtue of the STOLEN election in 2020.
Yes people, the stolen election has greatly contributed to the national suicide of the once magnificent Republic bequeathed to us by those willing to pledge their lives, fortune, and their sacred honor. What they endured to give us what we so blithely squandered is sacrilege.
I pray he is right. Virginia has this very case signed into Law by Spanberger to take effect tomorrow, July 1 which includes the sale of magazines. Two Injunctions have been issued in the past few days to stop it because it is unconstitutional. Various Sheriffs and AGs are saying they will not enforce the new Law. The Senate Head, Dem Lucas, is threatening to have them removed from their positions. “Two Bullet” Jay Jones, the AG, is appealing both cases. It is a mess.

🚨 The Supreme Court to Decide if Second Amendment Protects AR-15s
People are freaking out over this thinking SCOTUS will rule against it since they agreed to hear it… I highly disagree.
I fully expect the Supreme Court to rule 5-4 or 6-3 that AR-15s and similar semiautomatic rifles ARE protected by the Second Amendment.
Kavanaugh’s clear signal
Last year, when the Court skipped a similar case, Justice Kavanaugh wrote that bans on AR-15s are “questionable” and that there is a “strong argument” these rifles are protected because millions of law-abiding Americans own them for lawful purposes. The Court took these cases right on his timeline.
Based on past sessions, Justices Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett are very likely to vote to protect these rifles. Roberts… I’m not sure.
The Key Supreme Court precedents to be referenced:
• Heller (2008): Guns in “common use” by ordinary people are protected.
• Bruen (2022): Modern gun bans must have a historical tradition. There is no history of banning rifles that millions of Americans legally own and use.
This has major implications on precedent for other laws. Everything is on the table:
– state laws
– large capacity magazine
– feature bans (grip, stocks etc)
The Court took this case to SETTLE IT once and for all… and it will be settled in our favor. Bank on it.

This sums it up:

And This:
Today’s devastating decision should have immediate consequences:
Expedited removal of all non citizen females – of any category, including students – who could be of child bearing age.
Stoppage of Visas through outposts which do not vet, how should Chinese babies be given American citizenship whose mother never even set foot here.
Complete closure of entry into the US until we’ve determined how not to give away more of our country.
End public benefits on a large scale, despite the political screams. At least minimize the magnets.
Very quickly reassess those who’ve been given green cards or other options to enter which might result in further diminishment of our citizenship.
If only it were that simple to implement.
There will be lawfare holding up every action and enforcement to that end until which time President Trump is not longer in office and a more amenable subject to the globalists once again occupies the Oval Office.
There will be blood.
One wonders whether there could be a Request for a Rehearing.
Failing that, I think President Trump should do as much as he can as fast as he can. We know Lawfare will sue him; if something is deemed possibly unconstitutional might we not get the issue to the SC again?
As we know, incorrect SC decisions have been overturned by a subsequent Court. This one is on its face incorrect.
What could it hurt to try again?
And you can push the envelope because the evil Lawfare people might not want to take a chance that they would lose the next time.
I really thought the SC’s decision not to allow the Texas case on the Stolen Election, as the Court of original jurisdiction for disputes between the states was an incomparably terrible decision; this decision is many degrees worse.
Normally such intrinsically wrong rulings linger around for quite some time, decades even, until is it stricken by a succeeding Court by which time the damage has been done.
This one will rank up there in notoriety alongside the Dred Scott, and Plessy vs. Ferguson rulings.
An AWESOME start! The USA could end all VISAS today…that would help.
I surely miss the America I was born in….
enjoy the fourth Treepers.
Sickening.
Wow, my sentiments exactly. I want that America back… that is what I voted for however, the anti-American SC had different ideas.
The entire world is upside down…this SC decision just put a major damper on what would have been a tremendous weekend and celebration.
I think there will be a lot of flags flown upside down on Saturday…seen a few already.
Me too.
Inviting those World Cuppers who offered kind words and videos of praise and respect to us here in the US, come back when she gets pregnant. Remember us.

From state-of-the-art hospitals to expert obstetric teams, your comfort, safety, and health are the top priorities. You will receive world-class prenatal and postnatal care tailored to international guests, ensuring a smooth, welcoming, and safe experience for you and your newborn.
Language assistance in health care facilities is required for JCH certification…based on the ‘gubmint’….been in effect for a long while…
Its made to sound like a ‘welcoming perk’. Its not. Its a box to check on a ‘gubmint’ audit form, so the facility will continue to get federal dollars.
These translation services are mandatory and often remove the nurse from the critically ill patient, your mom? your dad? your own child? while trying to explain the admission process or some other basic needless item.
