The U.S. Supreme Court questions Trump's attempt to revoke birthright citizenship

BlockBeatNews

BlockBeats message, April 2, according to Bloomberg, the U.S. Supreme Court “raised questions” about Trump’s attempt to overturn birthright citizenship, suggesting that a core part of his immigration plan could be rejected. Trump is seated in the front row of the public gallery of the court and is holding oral arguments.

Trump has long argued that the current U.S. system of birthright citizenship is being severely abused, and that it is one of the main loopholes in the United States’ immigration problems. He has repeatedly stated publicly that birthright citizenship (i.e., anyone automatically receiving U.S. citizenship just by being born in the U.S. mainland) is not a “gift” for illegal immigrants or temporary visitors, but was established after the Civil War to protect the descendants of enslaved people.

According to PolyBeats monitoring, on the prediction market Polymarket, the probability of “the U.S. Supreme Court rejecting an executive order related to Trump’s birthright citizenship” has risen from 81% to 95%.
