The Trump administration wants to end automatic birthright citizenship as enshrined in the Constitution’s 14th Amendment.
The Supreme Court on Friday allowed the Trump administration to take steps to implement its proposal to end automatic birthright citizenship, handing a major win to the government.
The court granted a request by the Trump administration to narrow the scope of nationwide injunctions imposed by judges so that they apply only to states, groups and individuals that sued. That means the birthright citizenship proposal can likely move forward at least in part in the states that challenged it as well as those that did not.
The court was divided on ideological lines, with conservatives in the majority and liberals in dissent.
More bad behavior from the Roberts Supreme Court. Write it down, Democrats.
I’m just going to keep putting “bad behavior / bad behaviour” in the thread of each new piece of SCOTUS’ deliberate ignorance of democracy, constitution and the rule of law. You’ll be able to search my profile for it, and maybe Democrats can do something about it if they can retake power.
How optimistic you are, to assume that the token opposition party will EVER have any power, ever again.
It’s also a very bold assumption of mine that they would try to do anything more than the status quo even if they did manage to retake power, predicated on the Democratic Party being massively reformed. If there was ever a time to reform the Dems, that’s right now, years before midterms or a US general election.
And that you know, they’ll see this person profile in a niche social network.
