The US Supreme Court has ruled that children born on American soil are entitled to citizenship under the Constitution, rejecting President Donald Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship through an executive order. In a 6-3 decision, the court reaffirmed that the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to babies born in the United States, regardless of whether their parents are undocumented immigrants or temporary visitors. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that the Constitution's promise of citizenship applies to every child born in the country. The ruling marks a significant legal setback for Trump's immigration agenda, although the former president pledged to continue pursuing changes through Congress. Civil rights organizations welcomed the decision as a reaffirmation of long-standing constitutional protections, while several conservative justices dissented, arguing the amendment was being interpreted too broadly. The landmark judgment preserves a policy that has remained in place since the adoption of the 14th Amendment in 1868.

00:17I don't know, it's up to them.
00:19But in terms of for the good of the country, it would be great if they did the—they didn't allow
00:24it.
00:25It would be great.
00:26But I can't tell you, the slaughter case was the big case today.
00:31That was really a big case because it gave strength to presidents and strength to the presidency, a very important
00:37case.
