Supreme Court Showdown: Is Birthright Citizenship on the Chopping Block?

(00:00.578)

Supreme Court and birthright citizenship. Okay, this is very interesting. It’s a hot button topic without a doubt. the president went yesterday and sat in, sat in the front row and listened to various different arguments. Fact is 9%, 9 % of all babies born in the United States getting citizenship based on either birth tourism, which is mostly coming from China or whereas the mother smuggled herself into the country illegally, that’s 9%. That’s a problem. That’s a problem. Ron DeSantis put out a tweet. said, we are supposed to be a country based on we the people, but that is supposed to be we the American people allowing foreigners who are either violating the law.

or abusing the law to birth us citizens, especially in such large numbers does not square with the idea that we are supposed to be governed by the consent of the people I am. Again, I understand why that this, you know, this has to end, I listened to some of the arguments back and forth. I don’t know how this is going to turn out. I really don’t.

Yeah, there’s arguments being put up and leaving a lot up to what the intent was and what they were talking about. And, you know, other arguments being made by other lawyers. Well, it’s not in the actual document. I think it was Chief Justice Roberts was responding, saying something like it’s a new world, but it’s, you know, the same old constitution. So I’m not confident.

quite frankly, I’m not confident that they are going to change this, but it needs to be changed. And the constitution allows us to do that via constitutional amendment. we almost have to get back to that point in time. I mentioned Ron DeSantis, he’s actually been going around the country trying to work a constitutional amendment, talking about, know, balanced budget term limits, various different things. There’s things that we really need right now.

that idea that it’s a new world, things have changed. And that was, that was Sauer’s argument. That was the president’s lawyer’s argument, talking about, you know, the founders couldn’t envision, couldn’t envision a world of, you know, eight, nine million, billion people and airplanes that could drop people off every single day. And he’s not wrong. And, you know, again, it’s part of the genius of the founders of the constitution allowing us to amend

certain things and I have a funny feeling that’s the direction we’re going to have to go in but that’s going to be a long tough slog. It’s going to be a real real hard thing to do because the left in this country benefits from open borders. They benefit from it. I have made the argument here that what Joe Biden did

And again, he was what Joe Biden and what Joe Biden is what his people did. These people allowing the entire world to just run. I mean, it wasn’t that long ago. Caravans of people like we’re just coming in. Come in, put us up. You’re going to put us up in hotels. You’re going to feed us. You’re going to take care of us. You can put his kids school, you know, just open up the borders. We’re all. Yeah, we’re all want asylum. We’re all, you know, all asylum seekers and allowing that to happen. Quite frankly, treasonous.

in my opinion. I have discussed this before and I’m curious, everybody’s thoughts out there when it comes to citizenship. It’s easy. And again, I don’t have any problems. I see some of the rhetoric by people thinking that you’re somehow less of a citizen because you came here legally and became a citizen. No, I’m sorry.

Okay, I don’t care if you, you know, you just got your citizenship papers and you pass a citizenship test five weeks ago, you’re just as much of a citizen that I am. It’s not like you, the longer you’re here, you become more American. I’m more American than you are. No, that’s, that’s nonsense. We want people to come here, we want them to assimilate to our culture, but we don’t even ourselves, we don’t really don’t even, you know, value our citizenship, we take it for granted.

(04:42.978)

We do. I’ve made suggestions here on the show about, you you want to graduate from high school? You want to get a high school diploma here in the United States? You better be able to pass a citizenship test. And if you can’t pass that citizenship, not only you’re not graduate, you don’t get the vote either. Simple things like that that would help bind us and bring us together.

quite frankly, it does need to have a little bit more value. And again, you know, we’ve done it to our ourselves. I think another real shot at the foundation, like chipping with the foundation this country was was actually in Bill Clinton’s motor voter law this he allowed for when I really allowed to just registered to vote.

at the DMV, but also I think it was in that same bill, if I’m not mistaken, if it wasn’t, he still passes, you know, forcing any institution getting federal dollars having to have documents and paperwork and translators for all of these various different languages. Are you crazy? No. No, assimilation is key.

It’s key that, you know, that we have, you know, an American way of doing things. And even though we bet we know the reality is, is, yeah, we’re a new culture and we’re a mix of many different cultures. There’s still something about being an American. We do not want to lose that. And you erode at it little by little, you press one for English, you know, all of these various different things.

It doesn’t strengthen America by any stretch of magic and I don’t have any problem with foreign languages And I think it’s great to learn as many languages possibly can I’m one that loves to travel and see other cultures and other places. I think that that’s fantastic but Assimilation again, I go Teddy Roosevelt talked about this too I agree with Teddy Roosevelt everything but he was right in a lot of things but you know, this was one of them

(07:05.506)

You know, we can’t balkanize the place and we’ve managed to do that. And again, to be honest, who does that actually serve? Who’s it serving? If people long time listeners of program, it serves the serves of people in power. You’ll divide and conquer. Have us in various different groups, different classes, people against one another. It serves their needs. Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
