    1. [The Supreme Court agreed Friday to decide](https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/05/politics/supreme-court-agrees-to-hear-birthright?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=missions&utm_source=reddit) if President Donald Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship with an executive order is constitutional, offering the justices an opportunity to revisit what has widely been considered settled law since the 19th Century.

      By granting the appeal, the court is directly taking on the merits of a controversy that it largely avoided earlier this year, when it sided with Trump on technical grounds dealing with how the challenges to the policy were handled by lower courts.

      Though the legal theories advanced by the Trump administration’s appeal have long been considered fringe even by many conservatives, the case will nevertheless draw considerable public focus to the Supreme Court term that began this fall. It is yet another test of the court’s willingness to embrace a boundary-pushing legal argument from the White House.

      A ruling for Trump would upend a longstanding tenet of constitutional and American immigration law and may have significant practical implications for US citizens who may face new hurdles documenting newborns.

      The court will hear arguments next year and will likely hand down a decision by the end of June.

      Then who the fuck is American? Can a full American citizen with a Hispanic surname have their child deported?

    3. yellowcardofficial on

      Literally already settled they have no basis to take this up other than to overthrow established law

    4. Historical_Bend_2629 on

      He can’t, but unbelievable they give this unconstitutional crap the legitimacy of listening to it.

    5. The U.S. Constitution states, in the 14th Amendment: „All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.“

      How many Americans will this effectively convert into stateless un-humans that the ICEstapo is free to abuse or dispose of to their heart’s content?

      I hate to keep going back to the whole WWII nazi period, but this is some Hitler-nazi era deathcamp shit we are very visibly entering into.

    7. Hey, let’s get some more taxpayer dollars into our lawyer friends‘ pockets!

    8. If the answer isn’t a quick no this court and its decisions can and should be ignored.

      summary:

      The Supreme Court will decide if President Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship is constitutional. The order, which would deny citizenship to children born to undocumented immigrants or temporary visitors, challenges the 14th Amendment’s citizenship clause. Lower courts have blocked the order, citing its inconsistency with established law and the 1898 Supreme Court ruling in US v. Wong Kim Ark.

      This is fucking absurd. I’m sure the justices are hard at work figuring out how they’ll justify the pre-determined outcome.

      The crazy part is once birthright citizenship is ended, no one is safe. Anyone could be kicked out of the country with the justification that someone in their family should not have been a US citizen.

      This pisses me off so much! Fuck this!

      Understand at the basis of this and really the whole deportation campaign is that Republicans don’t like Hispanic people. But even if they deported all the illegals and even if they implemented this birthright citizenship thing, Hispanic people are still gonna be here because they’ve been here since before America was a country. If they try to go back far enough to erase their citizenship, they cut out all the people of European descent too.  Even if they said it applies to births from this date forward it will not meet their racist requirements. And Trumpers are not going to like to have to apply for their new kids’ citizenship. It can never be implemented and even the corrupt SCOTUS is not going to allow it.

    12. When people act surprised that I say I don’t feel any pride in being American I just gesture broadly at this type of shit. This is what people voted for and want to turn this nation into. Fuck that.

    13. Holy constitutional crisis, Batman.

      Surprised? Not really. Disappointed? Always.

    14. GeneReddit123 on

      Ok, so I know SCOTUS justices are politicians in robes, and I know the year’s been crazy, and I know US politics is going down the toilet, but there’s no actual way SCOTUS would literally ignore a black letter Constitutional amendment as-written and which there is no possible fucking way to interpret differently than the way it’s been interpreted since the Civil War, all while jeopardizing the lives of millions of law-abiding Americans, blowing up the social contract, and tearing apart the fabric of the nation in the biggest way since *Dredd Scott*… Right? Right?

    15. RiseDelicious3556 on

      Of course he can’t end birthright citizenship; the fact that SCOTUS would even grant certiorare to this case is abominable. This should not even be an issue.

    16. Anon101010101010 on

      Supreme Court to allow Trump to end birthright citizenship

      Fixed the title for you.

    17. yotengodormir on

      An executive order can’t change the Constitution. What a waste of time. 

    18. Good. He’s going to very publicly lose again. The arguments before the court should be entertaining.

    19. rapidcreek409 on

      Next they’ll re-legalize slavery. With Clarence Thomas writing the majority decision.

    20. Piccolo60000 on

      >“The citizenship clause of the Fourteenth Amendment was adopted to grant citizenship to newly freed slaves and their children – not to the children of temporary visitors or illegal aliens,” Solicitor General D. John Sauer, the administration’s top appellate attorney, told the Supreme Court in the appeal.

      I wonder who they would define as a “temporary visitor”. A tourist? Someone on a student or work visa? The definition is broad.

    21. Imaginary_Pepper6581 on

      So this is all part of the plan to de-naturealize citizens. There whom thing is, there is no due process, no rights, no nothing for illegal immigrants. But once they can de-naturealize you, they say your not a citizen, and now you have no rights.

    22. We all know what they’ll decide. They’re straight up corrupt. More than half at least.

      Fight back. And I don’t mean protesting. It’s time they remember that they work for us. They should be afraid of what we’ll do. Remind them.

    23. SCOTUS declaring Constitutional Amendments to be unconstitutional is a rubicon I don’t want to cross.

    24. weaponjaerevenge on

      The 14th Amendment is unambiguous. All persons born in the United States are citizens of the United States. It’s not even open to interpretation, it’s simple text. If they nullify the 14th amendment then they can nullify ALL amendments, and at that point it’s time to get out or arm yourself.

    25. themadscott on

      Well, its in the constitution, and so is the procedure for amending the constitution. Should be the easiest decision they ever made.

      Should be.

    26. Even if it wasn’t unconstitutional (which it most certainly is), this isn’t something a president should be able to decree by EO.

      The willingness of SCOTUS to even hear this case should make it clear that the conservative majority are all in on project 2025 and fascism.

    27. So they want to be able to kick people out who were born here? Anyone who supports this, there will come a time when it will be used against you. Bet on it.

    28. Ok_Marsupial_8210 on

      Dang I must’ve forgotten the parts in civics class where one of the functions of the SC is to literally rewrite the constitution.

    29. MEDICARE_FOR_ALL on

      If they overturn birthright citizenship, I’d be all for democrats packing the court when they take power to undo that decision.

      It’s literally in the constitution.

      „ALL PERSONS BORN OR NATURALIZED IN THE UNITED STATES“.

      SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED 2nd amendment people should be ashamed of themselves if they support this.

    30. lankyfrog_redux on

      We’ve already decided not to abide by Section 3, where Trump literally couldn’t hold any office.

    31. 14th amendment: „All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.“

      Crooked Supreme Court Justices: „Yeah but like what does that really *mean* tho?“

    32. IAMA_Drunk_Armadillo on

      *Clarence Thomas pulls out a rewritten Dred Scott decision with the 3/5ths compromise added and whispers in Gollums voice* finally they’ll get to see the precious….my precious

    33. Correct_Doctor_1502 on

      The Supreme Court is about to nullify an amendment in violation of the constitution itself. This is the constitutional crisis and our democratic republic is gone

    34. xx_HotShott_xx on

      If there’s no birthright citizenship, then how are any of us citizens? Unless your ancestors were indigenous, at some point in you family tree, your ancestors ain’t from here. So we going by how many generations now? Who decides that? (Lemme guess… depends on much you donate to or kiss the ass of Cheetolini?)

    35. m1kasa4ckerman on

      How far back would they want this to go? So utterly ridiculous (apart from it clearly being unconstitutional).

      My dad is 1st generation American. Would that mean I wouldn’t be American if he’s not? Is this new births? What a cluster fuck. Very rich coming from cankles with his Epstein-ordered bride too.
