INGRASSIA: President Trump Doubles Down On Pledge To End Birthright Citizenship, A Policy Backed By The Overwhelming Majority Of American People
by Paul Ingrassia Dec. 10, 2024 7:45 am
 


America, since its inception, has been a place of opportunity for aspiring, high-skilled people.

The geniuses and artisans of Europe of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries flooded to these shores, enriching the society in many cases and making invaluable contributions to American culture – from our culinary traditions to newfound architectural styles – that continue to be influential through the present day.

This custom of selecting only the best and brightest is not anomalous to great nations throughout history.

All nations are only as good as the people which compose them: thus, any worthwhile nation would desire to enhance the quality of its people overall in order to elevate its global standing.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

What is that old liberal saying?  Government of, by, and for the people doesn't apply to democrats!

...and subject to the jurisdiction thereof...

Doesn't start just because you can b arrested for being here, or because you have a tourist visa. It happens because at least one of your parents is a citizen.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

So, birthright citizenship is conditional, not automatic?

So, many anchor babies should not have neen granted citizenship just because their mothers came ashore in time to give birth?

The 14th says "..and subject to the jurisdiction thereof...".

Foreign citizens are subject to the jurisdiction of their home countries. Children to their parents countries of origin, as well.

When you read the debates surrounding passage of the 14th amendment it becomes crystal clear that they were talking about former slaves and their offspring only. People subject solely to the jurisdiction of the United States and no others.
