• MEDIA: Tracking Birthright Citizenship Is Harder Than It Seems

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Mon Apr 7 10:34:33 2025
    Newsweek's Dan Gooding on whether Little Marco Rubio has a plan to
    stop State.GOV from issuing American passports to the America-born
    children of non-Americans: <URL:https://www.newsweek.com/birthright-citizenship-tracking-numbers-trump-administration-2052392>
    | President Donald Trump signed an executive order on January 20,
    | aiming to redefine birthright citizenship. The president wants to
    | narrow the definition of the right enshrined in the 14th Amendment,
    | so that it only applies to children with at least one parent who is
    | a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident.
    |
    | The move is facing multiple legal challenges, which have halted the
    | plan for now. Opponents argue that birthright citizenship has
    | applied to nearly all babies born in the U.S. for over 150 years.
    | Only children of foreign diplomats and military tend to be exempt.

    Has Donald Trump ordered Elon Musk's DOGE.GOV to recommend a solution
    for Rubio's State.GOV and RFK Jr's SSA.GOV?

    "Step one begins as President Trump, Elon Musk and Scott Bessent
    each noted. First, admitting there's an institutional problem.
    Patel and Bongino are denying they have an institutional problem." -
