In another bold ruling, SCOTUS proclaimed that it’s not sure about whether birthright citizenship is constitutional or not.

“Well, it could be, maybe or maybe not,” Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the majority, presumably with a straight face.

While legal analysis will take months or years, the early consensus of liberal legal scholars is that SCOTUS has declared birthright citizenship constitutional. At the same time, conservative legal scholars are confident that SCOTUS just ruled that birthright citizenship is not constitutionally guaranteed.

“It was a Solomon-like decision,” Larry The Lawyer Guy declared on his podcast. “You see, the justices are saying that birthright citizenship might be constitutional or it might not. Get it?

No one did.

The closest thing to wisdom in the entire ruling was the line, “When a court concludes that the Executive Branch has acted unlawfully, the answer is not for the court to exceed its power, too.”

For some, this SCOTUS “wisdom” was the equivalent of saying, “Master your fears, or your fears will master you.” Meaningless claptrap.

SCOTUS watchers are already looking forward to June 2026 in hopes that Supreme Court Justices might, possibly, inch closer to actually making a decision.
