Trump Moves To Shut Down Birth Tourism Industry After SCOTUS Affirmed Squatter Citizenship
President Donald Trump signed two new executive orders to help rein in the birthplace citizenship crisis Thursday in the wake of a Supreme Court ruling that read automatic U.S. citizenship for illegal aliens into the Constitution. It is unclear how large that class is, but the order addressing alien enemies eems to signal a move toward a much more effective way to designate that a child does not obtain American citizenship: declaring ineligible children being born to noncitizens deemed to be invaders.
