What this episode covers

00:00 All right, let's go to the WRD talk line. We'll talk to Will in tailors. How you doing, Will? Charlie, I'm excellent. I had tried to call Bill Brady's show earlier. Excuse me. Get my throat clear. My main mission is to ask people to call Senator Graham's office at 202. 00:32 224-5972 and ask him to resign and not stand for reelection. Yeah, I don't know if you've met Lindsay, but I don't think that's going to happen, Will. But it would be nice for him to let, you know, everybody let him know that that's what they want. Appreciate your call. Well, President Trump is went to the Supreme Court today and the liberals lost their minds. They did. were like, is the president? 01:00 doing at the Supreme Court. He's not supposed to be there. We've got separation of powers here in this country. The president's not supposed be in the Supreme Court. 01:15 These people are so stupid. Did you know that they have a chair in the Supreme Court that is reserved for the President of the United States? Exclusively reserved for him to come and witness oral arguments? Yeah, it's there. It's for him. So if 01:43 The president is not supposed to be in the Supreme Court. Why would you put a chair out for him? Just because nobody's done it in a long time doesn't mean he can't. So he was in the Supreme Court today for oral arguments. And this is pretty amazing. Even the Wall Street Journal, this is from Randy's commentary from Randy Barnett. Trump is right on birthright citizenship. The 14th Amendment, 02:12 grants citizenship to persons who meet two conditions. Number one, birth in the United States and number two, subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. Now the dispute is going to come over the meaning of that term. Everybody agrees that that excludes at least three different classes, children of diplomats, children of soldiers from an invading army, 02:41 and Native Americans maintaining tribal relations. In each of these categories, the status of the child depends on the status of the parent. 02:53 The debate is about the original concept in the text that explains these exclusions and whether that concept embraces or excludes children born on U.S. soil to parents who are unlawfully or temporarily in the U.S. See, the court has never squarely addressed this question. Before President Trump's executive order, what originalist, the 03:20 The scholarship that existed on the original meaning of the subject of jurisdiction was sporadic and it wasn't really tested at all. The past years produced an explosion of originalist scholarship on both sides. The justices are now in a good position to decide which side has presented the stronger originalist case. Kurt Lash of the University of Richmond has examined the congressional debate over the 14th Amendment and the Civil Rights Act of 1866. 03:48 That act declared that all persons born in the United States and not subject to any foreign power are citizens. The 14th Amendment was intended to constitutionalize, not alter, the Civil Rights Act. Congress reenacted the same language after the 14th Amendment was adopted, suggesting an identical operation, but the drafters of the 14th Amendment 04:13 saw a need for constitutional language that more clearly excluded the children of tribal Indians. Senator Lyman Trumbull, who managed the Citizenship Clause in the upper chamber, explained that subject to the jurisdiction meant not owing any allegiance to anybody else, whether to a tribe or to a foreign power. Representative John Bingham of Ohio, the moving force behind the 14th Amendment, used the same framework referring 04:43 After ratification, the persons born in the U.S. has not owing allegiance to any other power. These statements and others, Mr. Lash identified, demonstrate how leading Republicans explain the concept of the text, and they're absolutely right. 05:01 opponents. 05:04 Don't agree with it. 05:06 The Supreme Court endorsed the concept of jurisdiction in Elk v.
