It is a feint, designed to distract the unserious from the much more important Constitution that exists exclusively as ideological vapor circulating around conservative legal thought.” #scotus #birthrightcitizenship #14thAmendment #USConstitution #ruleoflaw

Somewhere in this country a baby was born this morning to parents without papers. And that baby is an American. Six justices, 6–3, said the 14th Amendment means what it has meant since 1868: born here, subject to our laws, one of us. Trump signed it away his first afternoon back. The Court handed it back today. #BirthrightCitizenship #SCOTUS #14thAmendment #Citizenship #Immigration #Politics #News #Newspaper #Journalism #Constitution #CivilRights #Resist #Solidarity #LGBTQ
