Waiting for Roberts and ACB to fuck this up.
26 USC 4612 mentions the 50 states. It is the section for petroleum excise taxes.
8 USC Immigration and Nationality does not mention the 50 states.
In most cases, 'United States' means only the federal government, federal lands, the border, DC, Guam, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, USVI, etc.
I sent a notarized, sworn statement with my passport application in 2018 denying federal citizenship and having only state citizenship, due to birth in one of the 50 states of the Union. I received the passport.
The United States is a federated union of states and territories, as stipulated in the Constitution. Any fancy argument to the contrary is irrelevant. You can deny citizenship all you want, but unless you have declared yourself a citizen of another country, you are a U.S. citizen if you are a citizen of any state. States do not impose or certify "citizenship." Only residence.
Yeah, that's a plain reading of the 14th amendment.
State v. Fowler, 41 La. Ann. 380
6 S. 602 (1889)
Interesting news. Does this happen anywhere? I'm not sure the reading establishes that one's national citizenship is set aside. Do states declare citizenship for aliens if they haven't been naturalized as citizens of the United States?
The organization that helped me with my passport has some process for using state courts. The owner's wife is foreign born, but I haven't looked into it further.
NBC puff piece against the Bad Orange Man.
Funny how since Trump won the popular vote you don't hear any more whining about "Muh democracy!"
The MSM only care about their definition of "Democracy."
aka "mob rule"
And they donβt even have the numbers.
Prayers up for the court to do the right thing. Our demographic mix is over if they don't end anchor babies. We'll be lucky to get rid of half the invaders Biden let in. If their kids get citizenship, we're on the same path as Europe, just slower.
At the very least it shouldn't be automatic. There could maybe be some exceptions granted - there are always exceptions to almost anything as well as exceptional cases of everything - but that should be case by case and you should not be able to even apply unless there were some obvious - and exceptional - reasons you could show for wanting it.
They could call it "due process"
It was always supposed to be if both parents were citizens already.
I can not wait to see how this turns out, by all intent and purpose, should be ruled for the Trump administration. The founding fathers did not want everyone born here to "automatically" get citizenship-including the entire family. Especially illegals. If you came legally and had children while you were waiting for citizenship then your family would be allowed to also come in legally. I believe my aunt and uncle came in that way. Their father had to wait to come to America as he had to work and earn money to pay for the trip-he sent the wife and two of his children (who were born in Italy). The rest of his family, 3 other children, were born in the US.
Fake news from NBC
Is this part in dispute?
if it was reported by MSM it was lies.
They do lie all the time. If they are panicking that is usually good.
Itβs long obsolete and needs to stop
