“The language in America’s Constitution makes it clear: If your mom’s not here legally, you ain’t a citizen.’’ – Lars Larson

The Northwest Nonsense
I have waited three decades for the end of the ridiculous “birthright citizenship” scam in America.
President Trump banned the unwarranted gift on his first day in office last year by signing an executive order.
Just because you sneaked into my country and gave birth does grant your baby anchor status in the United States.
Today, for the first time in history, the president sits in the gallery of the U.S. Supreme Court to listen to the oral arguments for what promises to be an historic decision.
Only a couple of dozen countries on earth still grant “birthright citizenship” and most are places you wouldn’t want to live in anyway like Nicaragua, Honduras and Guatemala.
The language in America’s Constitution makes it clear: If your mom’s not here legally, you ain’t a citizen.
Ask Americans what THEY think, as pollsters did last year, and only 31 percent favor this gift to illegal aliens.
The only other supreme court decision on this subject, 128 years ago, decided you ONLY get citizenship with parents who are legally present.
I’m confident this court will decide the same in a few months … and, predictably, liberals will lose their minds.
So, what else is new?
