Foreign AffairsU.S Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump's Citizenship Birthright Executive Order by Moony45(op): 4:45pm On Jun 30
The justices rejected President Trump’s executive order that tried to end the practice of automatically granting citizenship to the children of undocumented immigrants and some temporary foreign visitors.

As we have been following this order since 2025 https://www.nairaland.com/8335630/judge-issue-more-permanent-block

The Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down President Trump’s executive order limiting birthright citizenship, reaffirming the long-held principle that the Constitution guarantees that nearly all children born on U.S. soil are citizens.

The ruling, which was 6 to 3 to strike down the president’s executive order, was a significant blow to a policy long pursued by Mr. Trump to prevent babies born to undocumented immigrants and temporary foreign residents from automatically becoming Americans.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., writing for the majority, explained that Mr. Trump’s executive order violated the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. Children born in the United States to undocumented parents or to parents temporarily in the country, he wrote, are citizens at birth.


“Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights — to freely participate in our political community,” Chief Justice Roberts wrote. “The framers of the 14th Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land.’”

He added: “We keep that promise today.”

The legal battle over birthright citizenship began on the first day of Mr. Trump’s second term, when he announced an executive order titled “Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship.”

In the order, he declared that citizenship would no longer be automatically granted to babies born on U.S. soil. In particular, children born to immigrants who entered the country illegally would no longer be citizens, nor would those born to parents here on a lawful but temporary basis, such as those on student, work or tourist visas.

The president’s order faced immediate legal challenges, as civil rights organizations, immigrant advocacy groups and expectant parents sued, successfully winning in court to block the order while lawsuits unfolded.

It never went into effect, and there were few signs the administration had been preparing the dramatic overhaul of the citizenship system that would have been necessary were it allowed.

234Love:
I am surprised you will say something like this. Really surprised. The problem with Peter Obi is he allowed himself to be made into a god and now he is stuck in it. He is now a victim of his doing. Buhari never allowed himself to be viewed as a god and I was a big Buhari supporter.
2027 is exactly the same scenario as 2015. Probably worse. Atiku and Buhari were from the same north but APC made it abundantly clear that it’s Buhari. Very very clear. There was no ifs and buts. Give Tinubu credit. That’s why he has no respect for any politician because he knows they are beneath him.
Now in 2027. It’s clearly the turn of the South. CLEARLY. Peter Obi asked them what are we doing with zoning when he could have clearly told them I want the same Buhari treatment. Any other politician would have said that but Peter Obi the god was playing nice and you cannot blame the ADC for playing games with him and saying oh we can even send it to the north. Oh let’s talk about it later. Talk about what? If it was any other politician the cannot try it. Talk about what really? It is the turn of the south and we need to talk about it? Everybody in Nigeria knows it’s the turn of the south but the ADC wants to talk about it later. Good luck!
True

The funny thing is that everyone is an expert until they find themselves in a similar situation. It's evident that there are a lot of externalities to these insecurities and incessant attacks, especially in the run-up to a general election, and all Peter Obi can do is sing as though he is the messiah. Empty-headed Messiah!
