Supreme Court Justice Roberts Drags His Feet on Trump Request to Intervene in Birthright Citizenship Fight

Supreme Court Chief Justice Roberts showed no urgency when he set a leisurely schedule in response to President Trump’s request to intervene in the birthright citizenship fight.

Rather than responding to Trump’s emergency appeal right away, without explanation, Roberts set an April 4 deadline for opponents to respond.

Last week President Trump asked the US Supreme Court to intervene in the birthright citizenship fight.

Four federal judges have blocked President Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order.

According to President Trump’s order, the 14th Amendment is being misinterpreted by the left to give citizenship to ‘anchor babies.’

“It is the policy of the United States that no department or agency of the United States government shall issue documents recognizing United States citizenship, or accept documents issued by State, local, or other governments or authorities purporting to recognize United States citizenship, to persons: (1) when that person’s mother was unlawfully present in the United States and the person’s father was not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person’s birth, or (2) when that person’s mother’s presence in the United States was lawful but temporary, and the person’s father was not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person’s birth,” Trump’s order stated.

Trump’s order argued the 14th Amendment has always excluded babies born to people in the US illegally.

“[The] Fourteenth Amendment has never been interpreted to extend citizenship universally to everyone born within the United States. The Fourteenth Amendment has always excluded from birthright citizenship persons who were born in the United States but not “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” Consistent with this understanding, the Congress has further specified through legislation that “a person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof” is a national and citizen of the United States at birth, 8 U.S.C. 1401, generally mirroring the Fourteenth Amendment’s text,” the order stated.

The Appeals Court last month said it couldn’t end birthright citizenship so President Trump took the fight to the US Supreme Court.

President Trump asked the Supreme Court to stay the nationwide injunctions issued by the federal judges.

“These cases – which involve challenges to the President’s January 20, 2025 Executive Order concerning birthright citizenship – raise important constitutional questions with major ramifications for securing the border,” Acting Solicitor General Sarah Harris wrote, according to Fox News.

Justice Roberts made wave when he defended the rogue judiciary and slammed Trump’s call for impeaching judges in a rare rebuke on Tuesday.

Chief Justice Roberts said Trump call for impeaching judges is “not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision.”

“For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose,” Roberts said in a rare statement.

“But at this stage, the government comes to this Court with a ‘modest’ request: while the parties litigate weighty merits questions, the Court should ‘restrict the scope’ of multiple preliminary injunctions that ‘purpor[t] to cover every person in the country,’ limiting those injunctions to parties actually within the courts’ power,” Harris wrote.
