Great, now ask AI to tell you whether 4 is more than 5, or not.


4 or 5 on an EO is not the same as Congressional "by appropriate legislation" that the Amendment specifically gives Congress the power to pursue.

And folks here unlawfully are still under American law. We arrest them, prosecute them, detain them, deport them, and punish them under our jurisdiction. You don’t get to count them inside the fence for penalties, then outside the fence for citizenship.


They are not subject to all our laws….because they are not under our jurisdiction. Or visitors over 18 would be eligible for the draft and jury duty.

From Fox news:
quote:

EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Jim Banks will introduce legislation Monday aimed at ending birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants and birth tourists by defining them as children of "invaders" under federal law after last month's Supreme Court ruling dealt a setback to President Trump's executive order on the issue.
Banks said the proposed Citizenship Act is based in part on Justice Brett Kavanaugh's concurrence in last month's Trump v. Barbara case, which suggested Congress could amend federal law.
The bill would define anyone who enters the U.S. illegally or for birth tourism as an "invader," declare that the children of such statutory "invaders" are not entitled to birthright citizenship under federal law, and codify President Trump's 2025 executive order using that definition.

I'll go back to being 30 years old again before they get 60 votes in the Senate for that one.
