@keithziegler8881 His entire point is for the courts to take it back up. And hopefully, interpret it correctly this time.

@krisokobah5149 Senator Howard, a framer of the 14th, clarified the citizenship clause, stating that it would include every person born in the United States and subject to its jurisdiction, excluding only those who were foreigners, aliens, or belonged to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers. He emphasized that this clause was intended to address the citizenship status of individuals, ensuring that those born in the United States, except for specific exceptions, would be considered citizens.

@sparkzbarca During a debate on it, Howard clarified the citizenship clause, stating that it would include every person born in the United States and subject to its jurisdiction, excluding only those who were foreigners, aliens, or belonged to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers.

@sparkzbarca Its original meaning refers to the political allegiance of an individual and the jurisdiction that a foreign government has over that individual. The fact that a tourist or illegal alien is subject to our laws and our courts if they violate our laws does not place them within the political “jurisdiction” of the United States as that phrase was defined by the framers of the 14th Amendment. This amendment’s language was derived from the 1866 Civil Rights Act, which provided that “[a]ll persons born in the United States, and not subject to any foreign power” would be considered citizens. Sen. Lyman Trumbull, a key figure in the adoption of the 14th Amendment, said that “subject to the jurisdiction” of the U.S. included not owing allegiance to any other country.

@tameyiery7447 Check out the guy who wrote it. He clearly said not foreigners. The law it is fashioned after said the same. It has been misinterpreted. And DT is a citizen. So all of his kids are.
