If the 14th Amendment guarantees birthright citizenship then why ...

Then why did we have to pass a law in 1924 granting Native Americans citizenship?

DeSantis just exposed the birthright citizenship myth.
In 1924, Congress had to pass a special law to make Native Americans citizens.
If ‘born on U.S. soil = automatic citizen’ was the rule, why the statute?
The 14th Amendment never meant instant citizenship for everyone dropping a baby here.
This is the real time bomb: Every day without mass deportations, thousands more anchor babies become instant citizens.
They grow up, vote, chain-migrate their families, and permanently shift the country left.
Delay = irreversible demographic replacement, exploding welfare costs, and cultural collapse.
Fix birthright citizenship. Deport at scale.

Was there a question prior as to whether they were actually “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”?

Sounds like an audition for the Supreme Court. I say, hire him!!!

But still ... the question remains.
BTW, FWIW, I served with some absolute stud Native American paratroopers. Good men. Fearless and relentless. The two that are still alive I love like brothers. Incredible men.

I'm not a lawyer but I wouldn't think so given how many Lumbees and Cherokees there were in the South when the 14th was passed.
I dunno if that's the question you were asking or not?

Congress can also pass a law that grants them citizenship
Just like they did for people born abroad to at least one American citizen
And when they granted citizenship to those born in us territories

Today I learned that Yale Law Grad, Ron DeSantis, also moonlights as a “retard on Twitter”.

Doesn’t invoking that provision as to Indian tribal members raise an interesting dilemma in how we might similarly invoke it for other foreign subjects who might happen to give birth on US soil, Learned Hand?

Just thinking here, but wouldn’t it be hard for a nation that spent money, lives and time subjugating a people to the point of making them move to territory foreign to them then turn around and say they are a sovereign nation? More like a subjugated nation.

Indians had an idiosyncratic position as being the only population who could be born in a different nation and the US....plus anti-Indian racism.
Elk v. Wilkins is specifically discussed in Wong Kim Ark and it explains this. It's one of the 3 clear exceptions discussed (to go along with the progeny of diplomats and persons born in areas under hostile occupation).

Worse, they make it a third world country. Import third world people, you get a third world country.

Anything else while I’m here?

No, not exactly the same. Pretty much apples to oranges.
