158 Years of Law Trump Can’t Override
from Common Sense for America · host Bruce Rutherford
The Supreme Court once ruled a man had no rights any white man was bound to respect. That was 1857. The 14th Amendment was written in the blood of the Civil War to make sure it could never happen again. But 158 years later, that amendment is at the center of a fight most people don't fully understand because neither side is giving you the full history. In this episode, Bruce Rutherford breaks down: What the Dred Scott decision actually said and why it shocked the nation The 38 words of the 14th Amendment and what they were designed to prevent Why "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" is the real legal battleground The 33,000 birth tourism cases per year and why they're a legitimate concern Why an executive order cannot override 158 years of constitutional law What a common sense solution actually looks like without dismantling the Constitution This isn't a left argument or a right argument. It's a constitutional argument and it's one every American should understand before the Supreme Court decides it for them. Follow the money. Follow the history.
