The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to intervene and allow a narrow version of his executive order banning birthright citizenship to move forward, challenging three nationwide injunctions brought in Maryland, Massachusetts and Washington state.

Judges in those states immediately moved to block President Donald Trump’s order banning birthright citizenship, which he signed on his first day in office.

All three courts blocked the ruling nationwide – something lawyers for the Trump administration argued in their Supreme Court filing is overly broad.

In the court filing Thursday, acting U.S. Solicitor General Sarah Harris said the courts had gone too far, and asked the Supreme Court justices to limit the scope of the rulings to cover only individuals directly impacted by the relevant courts.


quote:

"These cases – which involve challenges to the President's January 20, 2025 Executive Order concerning birthright citizenship – raise important constitutional questions with major ramifications for securing the border," Harris wrote.

"But at this stage, the government comes to this Court with a 'modest' request: while the parties litigate weighty merits questions, the Court should 'restrict the scope' of multiple preliminary injunctions that 'purpor[t] to cover every person in the country,' limiting those injunctions to parties actually within the courts' power."

This is pound for pound the dumbest thing about the United States. Jump a wall and fart out a kid on US soil and it’s a citizen?

That sounds retarded because it’s retarded.

Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch and Kavabaw will rule with the Trump administration on this case.


Conservative justices AOC and John Roberts will rule against the Trump administration with the three liberal judges, Kagan, Sopaipilla, and Jackson.

No, it in fact aims to move the bar in the exact opposite direction

The question is not whether it is good policy. I personally think it is very bad policy.

The question is “what does the Constitution say,” and it takes a VERY strained reading to come up with anything other than “birthright citizenship”

You can either be a Textualist or a Democrat. Sometimes the text just does not produce what you consider to be the “best policy.“

No, they will not.

8:1 with Thomas all by his lonesome.

You act as if any knowledgeable attorney would be surprised, when this case comes down exactly as everyone (who knows anything about the Constitution) is predicting.

The language in question was ratified more than 150 years ago, by the usual processes.
