It's almost as if the whole Trump administration is trying everything in their power to alienate not just independents, but their own supporters as well. Last week a Department of Trump lawyer was asked by a SCOTUS justice if Native Americans had birthright citizenship, and the lawyer couldn't answer. This week, Native Americans are selling gasoline to white people that is cheaper than the gasoline being sold by white people. Who looks bad here? #USpol #Trump #Iran #oil #BirthrightCitizenship

#Republicans have highlighted allegations of birth tourism as a reason to limit access to #US #citizenship, which has long been conferred at birth under an amendment to the #Constitution.
#Trump issued an #ExecutiveOrder on his first day in office that instructed US agencies not to recognize the citizenship of children born in the US if neither parent is a US citizen or legal permanent resident, a sharp break from legal precedent spanning more than a century.

People who engage in birth tourism schemes could be prosecuted for #fraud or other related #crimes under #Trump’s federal #regulation.
There are no official figures tallying the number of foreigners who come to the US for the purpose of giving birth & obtaining #citizenship for their children, or what the cost is to taxpayers.
…There were 3.6 million births in the US in 2025 & birth tourism likely represents a tiny fraction of the total births.

President Trump attended Supreme Court arguments on Wednesday, a rare event. Justices seemed unsure about his birthright citizenship order.

https://newsletter.tf/trump-attends-supreme-court-birthright-citizenship-wednesday/ -
Noting that Trump is the first sitting president ever to attend a Supreme Court hearing, Simon Rosenberg says,
"Unsurprisingly, Trump - who can barely make it through one of his own press conferences without falling asleep - left as soon as arguments against his position began. This guy’s skin is so thin you could read the Constitution through it, if you still believed in it."

"Earlier this week, he started out by raging at the Supreme Court over the birthright citizenship case, calling the courts “stupid.” That, plus him showing up at the court, seemed like an effort to bully it into siding with him. His very act of showing up was an act of rage and hostility toward the court."

"His presence was not celebrated, maligned, or even acknowledged. He simply sat there, then — perhaps realizing he would not be filmed or applauded — stood up and left."
~ The Contrarian
-
"The Republican-appointed justices at the center of the court remain happy to hand him a victory whenever his agenda aligns with theirs. But when those agendas conflict, these justices seem to relish the opportunity to remind the president that they can still tell him no anytime they please."
-
"On Wednesday, Donald Trump became the first sitting president to attend Supreme Court arguments in person. It must have been a brutal morning for him. ...
If Trump sought to intimidate them by showing up in person, his strategy failed miserably; they sounded just as resolute as they did when assessing the president’s erstwhile tariffs."
~ Mark Joseph Stern
-
"Sometimes showing up is a mistake.
Donald Trump made that mistake today, becoming the first president to sit in on an oral argument before the United States Supreme Court, which heard the birthright citizenship case, Trump v. Barbara, today. ... Trump’s brazen attempt to intimidate the Justices is the worst possible way he could go about it, and it showed."

"to observe arguments in the case of Trump v. Barbara, a case under which Trump hopes to end the birthright citizenship guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment.
But one judge after another has sided against him on this issue, and he apparently showed up at the Supreme Court today to try to intimidate the three judges who owe their seats on the bench to him" (continued in /3)

"Today, for the first time in U.S. history, a sitting president attended oral arguments at the United States Supreme Court. President Donald J. Trump broke precedent to take a seat in the front row of the Supreme Court’s public seating area, alongside Attorney General Pam Bondi and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick," (continued in /2)
