#SCOTUS #BirthrightCitizenship case

One of #Trump's most contentious policies - his attempt to restrict automatic #birthright #citizenship - arrives at the #SupremeCourt this week with a predictable twist: The justices may focus on something else entirely.

Federal judges in #Washington state, #Massachusetts & #Maryland issued orders blocking Trump's January #ExecutiveOrder nationwide, finding it violated language in the #Constitution.

The #Trump poster-person for the first Afrikaner #refugees from supposed anti-white racism in #SouthAfrica.

She is not a #refugee by any definition, yet she is being flown here at #taxpayer expense & handed a path to #citizenship while actual refugees are turned away.

Also Trump claims he’s granting "refugee" status to "white farmers”, but this woman lives in Cape Town, isn’t a farmer, & it doesn't seem like she's #Afrikaner since her bio says she was born in Zimbabwe.

The #Trump admin has, for the first time ever, built a searchable national #citizenship #data system.

The tool, which is being rolled out in phases, is designed to be used by state & local election officials [sure] to give them an easier way to ensure only citizens are voting. But it was developed rapidly without a public process, & some are already worrying about what else it could be used for.

NPR is the first to report….

"Trump🚨isn't hiding his fascist dreams. In just the past 24 hrs:

*Threatened to deport US citizens “born in our country” *defines as “bad ppl."

*Vowed to investigate NYC’s Dem mayoral nominee Mamdani *if he’s in the US “illegally.”

*He'd look into whether Musk was legally in the US.

*Joyfully visited the new fascist spectacle: #AlligatorAlcatraz” +vowed to build even more such camps."

*He/Noem threatened to criminally prosecute CNN rptrs.
