Foreign Citizens Should Never Be Allowed To Serve In American Government
Breccan F. Thies


It does not matter if individuals become naturalized citizens of the United States, so long as they retain the citizenship from wherever they came, they should not be allowed to serve in the American government.

Either they renounce their foreign citizenship, or stop serving in our government. And, it is more preferable that they self-deport if they feel strongly about keeping the other citizenship.

As founder John Jay expressed in 1787, “Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government.”

Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali and Sparkle Leah Sooknanan, two far-left appointees of former President Joe Biden, are perfect examples. Both are federal judges, both issue judicial decrees well outside what is in America’s best interests, and both are still citizens of foreign countries.

Sooknanan is a citizen of Trinidad and Tobago, while Ali is a citizen of Canada.

Note to self ... one more Constitutional Amendment to get passed

Certainly in any role where they make or influence policy, forbidding foreign citizens (including dual citizens) from serving in government would be a good idea.  However, many foreign nationals have served with honor and even distinction in the US military, and I would not want to see that possibility foreclosed.
