What should the average law-abiding citizen think about the highest court in the land vandalizing our Blessed Constitution whenever, especially when they represent our last defense against its political prostitution or any destructive attempts? This birthright citizenship decision joins with the Court’s no-no on Bible reading in schools and its rendering natural birth into a conditional right! It does not surprise, just infuriates!
This recent 5-3 support in this “birthright citizenship” case was such a hideous finding that serious thoughts of impeachment are being heard. This may be wishful thinking, given the communist fraction and wimpy Republicans, but the business of importing pregnant foreigners will rapidly increase and assure America’s demise!
In 2005, Bush nominated Roberts for the Court, but then withdrew his nomination after Chief Justice Rehnquist died. Two months later, Bush renominated Roberts, only this time his nomination was to fill the Chief Justice’s slot! This really stands out since how is an outsider qualified to become the Chief Justice? Especially with Thomas having 13 plus years and Scalia almost 20 years on the bench? Bush, the Republican, snubbed both highly qualified jurists for a rookie? Obvious was his jab at neutrality and original intent.
Then, there’s Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who couldn’t define “what a woman is” during her confirmation hearing, yet gained a seat on the bench! Biden’s disrespect for judicial integrity was obvious in his political preference for race and gender over merit.
More to the point, the “birthright” case pivots upon the words and meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment’s opener with “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens….” What outlaws Roberts and his four cohorts is that little ditty “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” A pregnant female alien, who enters America illegally, or a foreign national, who flies in from wherever to give birth, CANNOT BE “subject to the jurisdiction thereof!” Case closed!
Rooted back in 1866, Sen. Jacob Howard’s words explaining his proposed citizenship clause to the Fourteenth Amendment condemn this latest ruling with: “this will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens,[or] who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers…”
If the average citizen can understand this Amendment’s original intent, as cited by its authors, just how is it feasible for these jurists to intentionally violate its clear meaning? Following our Civil War, the Amendment was to legitimize and protect the American citizenship of those recently freed. The protection provided by this Amendment was specific to a certain generational period, so it may well have had an expiration date.
Not only will flights of pregnant foreigners increase, today’s in house population will also, which in twenty years could affect our “free” elections! The Constitution’s purpose is to restrict the government that it authorizes. This includes every black robe at every judicial level! Our laws are not made to benefit those damn foreigners!
