wow, how lucky we are that the ultimate deciders on litigation are not a bunch of partisans hacks, right?

My brother in Christ his family were immigrants here at one point, not to mention his wife and her parents..
When they say it's about race, it's about class. When they say it is about class, it's about gender. And when they say it's out gender, it's about race.
Or at least that's how it feels sometimes.
Other races, lower classes and LGBT.
Republican's only need their voters to be two things:
- Hates one of the above.
- Doesn't give a shit about the other two.
So they are incentivised to scatter shot and hurt as many people as possible to get the maximum number of votes... America is fucked.

Yeah but they bought their citizenship, they didn't have it given to them by some stupid thing like the Constitution. Plus, they're the "right kind" of immigrants. Wink wink.

Surprise? He's threatened to throw out the constitution because "we don't need it." And he has SCOTUS and Congress to let him do what he wants. Plus he'll have an AG that will basically be his lawyer. Trump is going to do whatever he wants.
Fingers crossed that we have immortalized the constitution so hard that the military would coup him over this. Crazy that's a thing I'm wishing for. Revolution would be cooler but this is America.
“A mountain of opposition” to the public, maybe, but all the bitching from the ACLU, et al will mean nothing to a Republican majority in Congress.
"Official act." That's all it'll take, I'm calling it now.
'Murica zealots who claim to love the Constitution have elected someone who wants to shred it. This is the darkest timeline.
The Constitution gets shredded regularly. It's a failed document.
Dipshit whose family were immigrants wants to destroy immigration.
Peak 'pulling the ladder up behind him.'
Of all the Supreme Court precedents that are going on the chopping block, I certainly did not expect United States v. Wong Kim Ark on that list.
He wants lawsuits so he can appeal to the Supreme Court and they'll rule in his favor.
New SC Justice Cannon has entered the chat.
We are so seriously fucked.

Genuine question: what happens to someone born in the US to non citizens? If they were born in the states, would they not have the citizenship of their parents country? At that point would they just have no citizenship anywhere?
I'm sure if it came down to it their parents home country might grant their child citizenship, but it probably won't be guaranteed..
I'm not aware of any country where the child would not automatically be eligible for the parents citizenship, even if the child is born abroad.
Basically only people with money would be able to 'earn' citizenship I suspect. Anyone else is left out of school, social programs, etc purposely.
Dude wants to help Musk become president.
