I feel like that overseas one is to distract us from the other one,but idk
sum potato my thoughts exactly
You’re probably right
So the courts can strike down that part but not all of it and still look like they’ve done their job, maybe?
Doesn’t Congress have to vote on this BEFORE this becomes law?
I’m sure this presents a constitutional challenge.
@Enthar Gaming Daca was an executive order and President Obama didnt have the right without a vote from Congress he really shouldnt of promised the Dreamers papers when they were illegally here
@Tom O I dont think the 14th amendment was written for illegal immigrants from other countries and the 14th ammendment was fought for by black people so hmnn what rights have the Brown people fought for?
So we dont have a problem stepping on the first second fifth amendments but somehow this is too unconstitutional lol
No more anchor babies, Maria. About time, too.
As a Republican, I am against this law… Our 14th amendment clearly goes against it
You obviously don’t understand the 14th. Don’t feel bad though, neither did the lawmakers when they extended birthright citizenship to the children of illegal aliens.
Did anyone on this thread hear what was said? AMERICAN SERVICE MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE BABIES OUTSIDE THE US- THEIR BABIES WILL NOT BE US CITIZENS. Holy crap. The constitution means absolutely nothing. Might as well just burn the thing.
Don’t vote Republican 2020
all the things trump did another president is gonna come and whipe out I can’t wait for that to happen
*14th Amendment has left the chat*
@Bill Macy you just contradicted youraelf hill billy. “When abuse outweighs the purpose” gun problems in the u.s alone are a big thing.
@Bill Macy nah you’re a fool
@Wall Chicken we’ll see.
@Bill Macy to make statements like these requires incredibly high levels of complete ignorance and delusion
@jghgiroot I know the left is out of control
I’m I the only one noticing the pattern when a president’s term is almost over, new rules and laws come out???
@Zombie Turd Yeah, we’re the new Roman Empire, aren’t we? As long as we have our bread and circuses we won’t think about what’s really going down, will we?
@David Thaler you’re a dumbass pole smoker
@DouglassRobert we’ll just keep looking down at our phones… Facebook has all the answers…or is it Google…or Alexia….o wait…it’s Twitter
Is it an executive order? Or threat to US citizens?
a military base is as USA territory
@Rose No, it’s not.
Both?
well for Mc Cain he born on a military base in another country and it was said military base are considered as USA territory
Both!!
When the most powerful nation in the world sees babies as a threat, we’re in trouble.
@bob brown ah yes as soon as someone mentions your precious second amendment you’re nowhere to be found. Typical trump voter. Run! They’re making sense! Lol
@nassim zway LOL! Tell that you your buddies who got MOAB’d!
lambdachi493 shall not be infringed, nothing more to say on it
Seems like he doesn’t like babies except his own!! President with the biggest heart!!
@Neb STHINK OF THE CHILDREN!
The left is literally the religious right of the 80’s
What the Trump administration is proposing and undoubtedly will implement (or try to) requires an act of Congress in the first case and a Constitutional amendment in the second.
This sounds like an onion article
the entire policy of the us sounds like an onion article
Most of Trump’s proposals sound like an Onion article to be honest.
Nah, the Onion would actually do research about the topic.
You all collect zero points
Trumps entire presidency is an onion article
Mr Ambassador, I’m sure your son/daughter shall have no issue applying for a US Visa.
@Pat Micucci No, Mr ambassador, I don’t recommend your wife leaving the embassy. No, she should not use a local hospital. Or your son/daughter will lose their US citizenship.
@Pat Micucci Some people live in a delusion that think embassies, are some kind of self contained city with all services.
@Pat Micucci So should the ambassadors child need to be born on the embassy grounds to qualify as a US citizen? What are you smoking ?
They Law said they won’t automatically obtain citizenship so most likely they will implemene a clause for it. This is a 1 minute soundbite that gave little information on the complete law so lets not jump to conclusions and assume they cant be citizens.
I can get behind the tourist for citizenship but two parents with citizenship? Really?
@Just Sayin’ but they’re citizens soo doesnt say illegal
@LIN TRAN you have to be specific not all foreigners…because people from mexico try to come dont make it great…you dont expect people in norway,finland,sweden,Australia and some great countries to come to the USA when they pay more in their counties and they got free health care…you only got people from third world countries coming into America and thats why you all feel you are great
@LIN TRAN , only for work, they have steady works. But and their ows Countries Better Lives, Family Oriented, Respect, Love, Humanity.
@John Smith When a US citizen has a child outside of the US, the parent has to have a certain amount of physical presents in the US. Its something like they must have lived in the US for at least 5 years and 2 of those years after their 14th birthday before the child can derive citizenship from them. This isn’t really a new law. Children born on a military base outside of the US is actually considered being born in the US. so it will not affect military members. Just US citizens that haven’t lived in the US for many years.
E9 Greatness You forgot that the US is a nation of immigrants and not only do they know how much the rest of the world sucks, they moved to the US because it sucked less than you.
Uh, the Constitution is clear. ICE has no ability to change this.
I would just prefer to be a being living on planet Earth. At birth I don’t have a choice to be any where else.
CosmosPrivateer exactly, everyone saying “if you don’t like it, then leave” as if we all have the capacity to just go anywhere from our birth country.
@Lotus Auer you do, your like, free man to go anywhere.
lambdachi493 yeah, if you have a decent living, and the money, and the time spent learning another language, and the permission of the other country. Unless your insisting people illegally immigrate out of America? And if you think every human on earth has the ability to leave their country or continent if the “try hard enough” that’s just delusional, just like in capitalism even though everyone has the chance to work hard to make more money, only some people will actually end up getting more while others stay stuck at the bottom.
@Lotus Auer oh no! You mean you actually have to work! No no no that just won’t do at all!
That’s called sovereign citizenship; a legit thing you can apply for.
For someone who cares a lot about the 2nd amendment they seem to be ignoring the 14th
@Pat Micucci Finally! Someone who has sense!
A friend of mines went through hoops to make sure his daughter was born on US soil. He was part of the security detail at the embassy in China. He met a Chinese woman and ended up marrying her. His superiors made arrangements to have a helicopter take him and his wife onto a US carrier for the birth of his daughter. He’s now back in the US and working here for a few years while his daughter is pursuing her college degree. Then it’s back to China were he and his wife have property. He was covering any potential problems and protecting his daughter.
@Jay 156 Actually they did… but didn’t.
Nah, the constitution only applies to citizens.
And yet again attacking our troops and their families.
Smh.
The other visitor yes make sense.
The reason we are not voting for him in 2020
Disrespectful to my my grandfather who served in the us air force..
What a enormous slap in the face to all in the armed forces and citizens abroad. They all pay taxes don’t they?
Christian Burns no they don’t.
@Christian Burns not anymore
@Christian Burns So, what if that family is off-base and the mother goes into labor? Does it become an issue then?
Christian Burns please check your facts before you start commenting on policy.
@Lisa Lotwin My brother is in the Navy and had a child on base, the child is an American citizen and her parents didn’t need to do anything special for documentation, so I rely on actual experience in this, and not on vague rules no one actually has dealt with.
So how’d you end up in this country?
Man: Idk …..but I was told that both my parents are American .
Well if you were born in the Americas continent you are a American . US citizen is another thing brother .
I’m American Central American😶☺😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Al Yi Don’t know if sarcasm, but many people in Latin American call US Citizens Estadounidenses and not Americans. I think, though I’m not sure, that it might have something to do with United States Citizen not rolling off the tongue as easily in English and American being the de-facto and preferred name in. Then, being adopted by the rest of the world as an anglicism.
@comochinganconesto itl it’s not sarcasm it’s actually correct geographically speaking you guys are United states “we do use that Spanish word which specifically means individuals from the United States but it’s not a form of disrespect not at all but if they call you Gringo that’s another story geographically speaking we are all americans
This means NOTHING… You can’t change the 14th Amendment genius…
What makes you so sure?
@Brandon Fontenot Article V of the Constitution prescribes how an amendment can become a part of the Constitution. While there are two ways, only one has ever been used. All 27 Amendments have been ratified after two-thirds of the House and Senate approve of the proposal and send it to the states for a vote. Then, three-fourths of the states must affirm the proposed Amendment.
The other method of passing an amendment requires a Constitutional Convention to be called by two-thirds of the legislatures of the States. That Convention can propose as many amendments as it deems necessary. Those amendments must be approved by three-fourths of the states.
“The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.”
I like how he glossed over the rule about kids BORN TO U.S. CITIZENS who work for the Government or in the military won’t be automatic U.S. Citizens.
Right? He kept emphasizing the part his viewers might be happy with, because the other part is the most unpatriotic, disrespectful thing that could be done to service members–basically deny their blood because of their sacrifice.
Because nothing says “Thank you for your service.” quite like putting your children at risk for deportation.
@lambdachi493 He talking about our vetererns and service members dumb dumb
the conservative way
This will not affect military members at all
I don’t believe it applies to our service men and women, Trump isn’t that stupid. I believe it only applies to citizens who our in a different country on vacation or just just moved to a different country all together. The news just clumped it all together like this to make you assume service members are included.
Military bases outside the US are considered US land. If a baby is born from a service member on an out of country base, that child becomes a citizen just as it would on the main land
