DeSantis and Trump Both Vow to End Birthright Citizenship. Can They Do That?

One of the more blood-boiling policies of the Leftists who have seized control of our country is to rake in all the illegal aliens they can with both hands for as long as they have the opportunity. The Biden maladministration has already overseen the importation of 6.3 million foreign nationals, as of last month.

Compounding the issue is the current policy of “birthright citizenship,” a facile interpretation of the 14th Amendment to confer U.S. citizenship onto anyone who is born within the physical, geographical borders of the United States. Thus, the offspring of foreign nationals who are in the country temporarily (for work, study, or a vacation — as well as those who are here illegally) automatically becomes a U.S. citizen.

Those of us who cherish our country and the great gift of our citizenship have long bridled at the practice of rewarding breaking U.S. immigration law with citizenship for children born to illegal aliens. Leftists, of course, love it, because they see an army of future Democrat voters, and they’re keen to breed up a permanent majority for themselves.

On Monday, presidential candidate Ron DeSantis issued his plan for getting on top of the illegal alien crisis. Titled “No Excuses,” the policy is aggressive and clear-eyed. “As president I will put an end to this moral and humanitarian catastrophe by shutting down illegal entries and building the wall, once and for all,” DeSantis promises. “There are more than 600 miles of the US-Mexico border without an effective barrier to illegal crossings: I will use every ounce of my executive power and political capital to get the wall built.”
