President Donald Trump follows the decision of the fourth judge who blocked his executive order to end birthright citizenship for illegal immigrant children, and founder He says that he is “rotating in their graves,” and says that the 14th amendment was not for the sake of ex-slaves, but for the illegal one.
“Our lawyers and judges must be strict and we must protect America!” the president chided.
“The 14th amendment to American citizenship had nothing to do with the modern “gate crusher” who breaks the law by being in our country. It had something to do with giving citizenship to ex-slaves,” he wrote.
“Our founders are “spinning in their tombs” with the idea that we can take our nation from us,” he added.

Among his most controversial moves, Trump returned to his oval office to end the practice of granting birthright citizenship to illegal immigrant children. An executive order was issued on the day.
The order, entitled “Protection of the Meaning and Values of American Citizenship,” states that “the privilege of US citizenship does not automatically extend to those born in the United States.” Parents are legal, but temporary.
Since he signed the order, the lawsuit has been filed by 20 democratically-led states and cities and several civil rights groups. Four federal district judges issued a ruling that temporarily blocked the order when it worked through a lengthy judicial process.
The latest ruling issued last week by US District Judge Leo Sorokin said “the Constitution broadly includes birthright citizenship, including those within the listed categories.”

In response, several Republican states and the American First Legal filed an Amicus brief in favor of Trump's order, which is entirely constitutional and within the original meaning of the 14th Amendment. It claims to be in line with previous rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court.

The 14th Amendment was passed in 1868 and was designed to extend citizenship to former African American slaves. The amendment states that “every person born or naturalized in the United States is subject to that jurisdiction and is a citizen of the United States and the state in which they live.”
After submitting two Amikos briefs in support of Trump's orders, first Vice President of America Dan Epstein told Fox News Digital that the phrase “is subject to its jurisdiction” was a statement that citizens were forced to have foreign powers. He said it means that he must bear political loyalty to the United States, not culture.

Epstein believes Trump's order restores the constitutional principle that those subject to US jurisdiction (faithful and law-abiding Americans) are citizens. He believes that the case will likely go to the Supreme Court, where he is confident that he will ultimately be endorsed.

“My expectation is that this is simple. The law is clear and subject to its jurisdiction, “it has to mean something,” he said. “So, that's not a very difficult question. It's a very clear question, and the law has a very clear answer.”
