SCOTUS birthright ruling makes challenging president harder

June 27, 2025, will go down as the day the Supreme Court took a sledgehammer to the 14th Amendment and handed it to the forces of white supremacy on a silver platter.
In a 6–3 ruling, the Court didn’t even bother to decide whether Trump’s vile executive order ending birthright citizenship is constitutional—which I guess wasn’t really the point in this case.
But they declared that lower courts can’t block federal policies nationwide.
The result?
Chaos.
Legal uncertainty.
And the return of a two-tiered system of citizenship that reeks of Jim Crow rot.
Now, whether you’re a citizen of the United States depends on the damn state you were born in.
A baby born today in California might be granted citizenship, while one born in Alabama under the exact same circumstances could be denied.
That’s not justice.
That’s not rule of law.
That’s apartheid by geography.
Make no mistake—this is the endgame of Trump’s war on America.
This was never just about immigrants.
It’s about erasing Black and Brown people from the national narrative.
It’s about avenging the South’s loss in the Civil War.
It’s about gutting the victories of the Civil Rights Movement.
And it’s about putting Christian nationalism in the driver’s seat to finish the job that Jim Crow started.
Trump and his judges—handpicked for their allegiance to white grievance—have now opened the door for a fractured, racist legal landscape where your worth as an American is determined by where your mother gave birth.
That is monstrous.
That is un-American.
That is treason against the idea of equal protection under the law.
This is Confederacy 2.0 with court robes instead of gray uniforms.
This is the gospel of white supremacy wearing a flag pin and holding a Bible it never bothered to read.
This is what happens when we let the architects of hate back into the halls of power.
If you’re not furious, you’re not paying attention. Because the next birth they strip of citizenship might not be in another state.
It might be in yours.
