I'm late to the party.
Reason Balogun can play on #USMNT #WorldCup is #BirthrightCitizenship. Parents from Nigeria (One of the shithole countries)..."We have had very serious problems w/Christians who are being murdered in Nigeria,"Trump said.
They came to the US when mom was pregnant. Not allowed to return bec too close to term. They've never lived in US #Loophole #Corruption
..Trump called Infantino to urge FIFA to review the red card..

“The written Constitution is for the public. It is a feint, designed to distract the unserious from the much more important Constitution that exists exclusively as ideological vapor circulating around conservative legal thought.”

A president cannot edit the Constitution with a Sharpie. The soil does not check your parents' visas before it decides you belong to it.
When did a court last surprise you by holding a line you'd braced to lose?

Somewhere in this country a baby was born this morning to parents without papers. And that baby is an American.
Six justices, 6–3, said the 14th Amendment means what it has meant since 1868: born here, subject to our laws, one of us. Trump signed it away his first afternoon back. The Court handed it back today.

⚡"The Supreme Court in a 6-3 vote UPHOLDS birthright citizenship, affirming the default rule that all persons born in the United States (with narrow exceptions) are U.S. citizens at birth.
A⚡total LOSS for President Trump and the effort to rewrite the 14th Amendment."

Die News zu #BirthrightCitizenship ist nicht, dass #SCOTUS das Rechtsprinzip gehalten hat, sondern dass es nur mit 6:3 gehalten wurde.
Next attack vector: „under the jurisdiction“
He's completely right. I don't celebrate this decision; we should be centering court reform.
I *do* celebrate the context, though: our amoral SCROTUS is starting to fear the people more than Trump, which is the most you can hope for out of a bunch of fascists. And it's the only way out of this mess without mass violence.

#SCOTUS upholds #BirthrightCitizenship, rejecting #Trump proposed limits
SCOTUS Tuesday upheld a broad conception of birthright citizenship, rejecting Trump’s EO declaring #children born to parents in the #US illegally or temporarily are not US #citizens. The decision, in line with the longstanding judicial interpretation of the #14thAmendment, comes on the final day of a SCOTUS term that has centered on Trump’s expansive claims of #PresidentialPower.

#SCOTUS’ #BirthrightCitizenship opinion is looong.
Mostly the #dissent by Justice #ClarenceThomas & joined by #Gorsuch. The majority opinion is 26 pages long, Thomas’s dissent runs to 91 pages.
Imagine being that freaking #racist.

Everyone hold onto your hats.
It's almost Friday afternoon, almost time for the #CorruptSCOTUS to end #BirthrightCitizenship
Big expansion of round ups and mass detention centers right after the World Cup.
#ThisIsAmericaNow
(I hope I'm wrong. But I always expect the worst from this SCOTUS)
If the current #US administration can successfully cancel #birthrightcitizenship, I’ll be among the next group they cancel.
Even though this is basically the only country I know
