On today’s show, Josh Hammer breaks down the Supreme Court’s decision to take up the birthright citizenship case, explaining why this is a debate America must have — and why President Trump may have far stronger legal footing than the media wants to admit. Josh walks through the real history behind the 14th Amendment, revealing how the Civil Rights Act of 1866 is the key to understanding what “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” actually meant to the framers.
Josh then turns to another major case being argued before the Court today — a fight he says is fundamentally about government expansion versus constitutional limits. He lays out why Trump is right to push back against Washington’s ever-growing control and how this legal battle could reshape the federal government’s power for years to come.
