@pbsnews: Supreme Court hears Trump’s challenge to birthright citizenship and judicial constraints The Supreme Court heard arguments in one of the most consequential cases of the year. It involves the ability for President Trump to carry out his executive order ending birthright citizenship and the power allowing a federal judge to issue a nationwide block on those orders. Geoff Bennett discussed the arguments with law professor Amanda Frost and News Hour Supreme Court analyst Amy Howe. #pbsnews #newshour #pbsnewshour #supremecourt #judiciary #news #districtjudges #birthrightcitizenhip #immigration #trumpadministration

if Trump can overturn any part of the Constitution that he chooses there will be serious consequences to this country

Wait... Donald Trump's parents were immigrants, right? Then revoking birthright citizenship means he's no longer a citizen, which means he can no longer legally be President. 🤔🤣

How is it seismic? Most countries don't have it, and many that did have ended it.

why are we even pretending that an executive order is able to overturn the constitution.

Where does this end. If people born here are not citizens then none of us are citizens. If this is the case the only citizens are the indigenous people of this nation. … the people whose land the colonists stole!

Well then, I guess tRUMP's son will have to be deported, because his mother was NOT a United States Citizen when he was born!! Hell his grandparents and mother weren't a United States Citizen ... So let's deport tRUMP and all his family!!! What's good for everyone else, is good enough for Diaper Don and his gang of thieves!!👍👍😆😅😂🤣💯❤️❤️

Anne Frank also lost her birthright citizenship due to the Nuremberg laws. This is America's Nuremberg laws.

Question if that law was to pass then wouldnt that effect the fact that you have to be a natural born citizen. So in turn any person from any country could run for President. Am I wrong ? Or is that just me over thinking ?

To everyone saying, how's this going too far? It's because the Republican party is the party of Trump. And they're all fucking cowards. And there are no checks and balances. They just let Donald Trump do whatever he wants. Because Trump is controlled by the heritage foundation and this is all in project 2025.

We all are utilizing birth right citizenship. It's why employers can use your BIRTH certificate OR your SS card...

The day that government picks and chooses whom is qualified to have birthright citizenship is the day that weaponization of government versus a certain ethnic group will be targeted based a whim of an administration. 🤔👀🙉🙊🙈🤯🫨

The point of the judicial branch is to stand up to unconstitutional factions, even if it’s the majority, James Madison wrote about this in the federalist papers…..

It's like last time with the impeachment, this process is to see how much he can get away with without facing consequences of his actions. if he wins then it shows him that he can become a dictator and no one can stop him😡 I pray this ends differently than he wants because I can't afford to move. my only saving grace is I'm white but I'm 3rd generation born in America when my great grandparents fled eastern Europe in the early 1900s.

for all of you screaming about the constitution, nobody is trying to change the constitution, what the Trump administration is saying, is the wording in the constitution has been mis read and interpreted the wrong way, that in order for someone to become a citizen when there born here from immigrants, the parents have to be in the care of the united states, such as working on citizenship, etc. women can not just come over the boarder as soon as their water breaks and the baby is automatically a citizen, that's the fight, I hope that made some sense.
