This is an absurd and pernicious anti-American ruling by the Supreme Court in defense of geography-based citizenship:The Supreme Court slapped down President Donald Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship in a major blow to the administration’s radical vision for the composition of the country. In a landmark 6-3 decision, the Justices halted the President’s attempt to end birthright citizenship – calling it blatantly unconstitutional and out of bounds.The constitutional guarantee was enshrined by the 14th Amendment, and ratified in 1868 to guarantee citizenship to freed slaves, but has since applied to every person born on US soil or its territories.It impacts an estimated 150,000 children born in the US annually to noncitizens.The ruling is a major defeat for Trump, and comes as the high court has ruled against him in a handful of major cases – including invalidating his sweeping tariff regime, and blocking his effort to fire Lisa Cook from the Fed’s board of governors.As one diehard liberal recently pointed out, the use of liberal democratic institutions to defend the indefensible and defeat the will of the people is only going to guarantee the eventual destruction of those institutions.There will not be any independent judiciary in the governments that replace the corrupt governments of the West when they fall, because, as with so many Enlightenment concepts, their supposed value is net negative to society.DISCUSS ON SGThe post Supreme Court Upholds Paper appeared first on Vox Popoli.
