“A $5 million gold card. A reality show for migrants. A birthright under assault. Let us be very clear: the Trump Administration does not want citizenship to be a right. They want it to be a reward for the loyal, the rich, or the compliant. To this end, President Trump’s bid to unilaterally end birthright citizenship for children born in the United States to undocumented immigrants is a modern-day Trojan horse masquerading as a concern for national security. This is not about protecting America—it’s about redefining America from the top down. That redefinition is already underway.” (05/22/25)
