Justice Brett Kavanaugh sounded like a fired-up prosecutor last year as he shot off a withering series of nuts-and-bolts questions about how President Donald Trump would carry out his plan to rewrite of the way birthright citizenship has been understood in the United States for more than a century.
It being a “problem” isn’t the question. It’s whether or not birthright citizenship goes against the Constitution and this exact question was already answered in the last Century.
No no. I’m absolutely certain that the Trump administration considers birthright citizenship to be a problem—when it’s non-white babies that are getting citizenship.
They need to stop beating around the bush and just say that.
