HOLY CRAP! President Trump’s attorney John Sauer just wrapped his opening argument on birthright citizenship and absolutely schooled Justice Ketanji Jackson.
Jackson tried to trap him with an emotional hospital-birth scenario involving illegal migrants.
JACKSON: “Are we bringing pregnant women in for depositions?!”
SAUER: “No. The executive order depends on lawful status. If a baby is born, a birth certificate is issued, and the system checks immigration status through existing databases.”
Jackson then pushed again, asking whether parents would get a chance to prove they intended to stay in the U.S.
Sauer shut that down too.
He said the exact opposite is true: if someone believes they were wrongly denied, there are ways to challenge it, but those cases would be rare.
When Jackson asked if that challenge only comes after a baby is denied citizenship, Sauer made it crystal clear:
The system already verifies the parents’ status automatically, using robust databases, and for the overwhelming majority of parents, the process would look no different than it does now.
