    This should only be done through an amendment, after winning unanimous public support for it.

    Right now only like 25-30% support it being ended.

    It should be that way.

    But 4 justices disagree. 3 would rather see it handled by executive fiat and 1 would prefer Congress to outlaw it through legislation.

    if a member of an invading army gives birth on American soil, that baby is an American citizen

    Absurd.

    I wish they'd just start saying slurs out loud instead of dressing their hatred up with rhetoric. I think I'd actually respect it a bit more if they dropped the façade

    Same as it's been for 150 years. Something tells me you never cared or complained about this prior to 1-2 years ago.

    Justices Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch do not believe in reading the clear text of the Constitution.

    This argument works so much better for Europe. USA is a nation of immigrants, the ancestral ties are native americans, the cultural ties is a melting pot of so many places, gov was setup to be decoupled from religion/ethnicity, land of the free/opportunity, etc

    This conservative commentator publicizes his willful ignorance, conveniently ignores the 14 th amendment

    The Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees citizenship to virtually every person born on American soil, a principle the Supreme Court has upheld for over a century.
