Debate Over Isis Bride's Citizenship Not About Trump
Townhall, Feb 24, 2019, Debra J. Saunders

Muthana's family is suing to prompt Washington to get her out of a Syrian refugee camp and back into the United States.

"This shows us to be a nation of laws," attorney Charles Swift argued on CNN Friday. Swift also said that Muthana "understands that she's going to be prosecuted." I'm not so sure she does understand, given her assertion that jail time is less likely to help her when she really needs help to recover from the trauma she experienced.

Muthana family attorney Hassan Shibly told the Daily Mail that Trump would use the case to undermine birthright citizenship in a way that affects "mostly Latino Americans."

There is one little problem with that argument. According to Swift's petition to establish Muthana's citizenship, as well as that of her son, the U.S. government sent a letter to her in care of her parents' address on Jan. 15, 2016 informing Muthana she was not a citizen. January 2016 -- that's before Trump was elected.

It was the Obama administration that determined Muthana was not a citizen.According to Swift's brief, the United Nations did not notify the U.S. government about the father's diplomatic status until months after the daughter was born. And if there is one thing President Obama was not known for, it was working to end birthright citizenship.

But there are even some here who will try to MAKE IT "about Trump".

The woman is a traitor.

Furthermore, it appears she was never entitled to "citizenship" (wasn't her father a foreign diplomat, or something like that?).

Leave her where she is.
Or send her to Guantanamo.

Her original passport was issued by Clinton, and erased by Obastard.  Suck it, Rats.
