Trump’s birthright citizenship attack the latest effort in obsessive campaign

For more than a decade, president has been fixated on trying to undermine a key constitutional right With a pair of executive orders on Thursday, Donald Trump has tried – once again – to undermine the guarantee of birthright citizenship, a right enshrined in the US constitution and reaffirmed by the supreme court just

Trump called the Supreme Court decision "very unfair," and said the new orders were an attempt to end birthright citizenship by other means. The orders come after the Supreme Court ruled June 30 that President Trump’s previous efforts to end birthright citizenship were unconstitutional. President Trump vowed "big crackdowns" on birth tourism on Thursday after he signed two executive orders placing new restrictions on birthright citizenship and banning birth tourism.

While less sweeping than the one invalidated by the Supreme Court in Trump v. Barbara, it still denies birthright citizenship to many people protected by the earlier Supreme Court decision.

Los Angeles Times reported the story as "After Supreme Court loss, Trump again targets birthright citizenship with new orders." Gateway Pundit reported the story as "(VIDEO) Trump Says "Very big Crackdowns" on Birth Tourism "in a Much More Forceful Manner" Incoming After Executive Orders on Birthright Citizenship."
