Supreme Court Skeptical of Citizenship Order
In an unprecedented move, President Trump attended the oral arguments in person, underscoring the high stakes for his administration's immigration agenda.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett questioned the 'messy' applications of the order, while other justices noted that the right is a foundational element of American identity.
The administration's legal team argued that birth tourism and illegal entry should disqualify infants from automatic citizenship under the 'jurisdiction' clause.
Legal experts suggest the court is poised to rule against the order, which would be a major judicial setback for the White House.
