President Donald Trump's top adviser Stephen Miller suggested on Fox News Tuesday evening that now the Supreme Court has struck down the executive order abolishing birthright citizenship, the administration could retaliate by prohibiting all foreign pregnant women from entering the country as a means of preventing the right from being granted.
"If you have birthright citizenship, it means that if a person comes here nine months pregnant to go look around at some things, in a couple of weeks, that is the mother of a lifetime American citizen and a direct line into cash and welfare for the rest of that child's life," said Miller.

(26,965 posts)I am thinking of my nephews who were born abroad, but both parents were Americans in their case.
My brother was in the Navy. One nephew was born in a US hospital in Tripoli when my brother was stationed in Greece. The other was born in Japan when my brother was based there for operations on Vietnam.
So, technically, they were born on American soil at US bases.
But many cases of people entering the US from other countries are not so clear cut.

(6,746 posts)airlines require a doctor's permission from 36 weeks and up, though. Wonder if Miller and the WH cabal will pressure the airlines to stop pregnant women from flying at all -- not just those that they label "tourist pregnant" ladies.
Miller/Trump are obviously doing everything possible to turn the USA into a "whites only" nation.

They lied to the airlines about how far along she was. My nephew was born in SC just under a month after they reached the US.
That was in the 1960s. Don't know what the rule is today.

Her citizenship was a gift to the country, believe me. Her descendants have also benefitted the country.
This is America. Unless you are a member of an indigenous tribe, you're descended from immigrants, and very few of them would "qualify" with today's restrictive laws.

My grandfather was born in Buffalo 2 weeks after they reached the US.
Must have been one hell of a boat trip for her while also caring for children ages 5, 3, and 1.
They were political refugees in 1888.

wnylib
(26,965 posts)listening to it. I have no talent for playing an instrument and don't know them very well except for the obvious ones like piano, violin, clarinet, tuba.
So I don't remember the names, only that he played two different horns. Sousa required his musicians to be able to play at least two instruments.
I do remember that he said that one of the horns was similar to a French horns, but modified for a band because the sound of the French horn did not suit a marching band. So that modified horn has its own name but I don't remember what it is.
By the time I was born, Sousa's band no longer existed and I never got to hear grandpa play.

As Republicans eye new restrictions on pregnant travelers coming to the United States, a question hangs overhead:

How, exactly, would U.S. officials go about determining whether someone entering the country is pregnant or not?

So, I have a bill; it will be called Anchors Away, which, look, if youre not a U.S. citizen, if youre not a green card holder and you have a child on U.S. soil, today, that child will be a U.S. citizen, Ogles said in a video posted to social media. Under my bill, under my legislation, we fix that. So in short, what this bill does is, if you are a pregnant woman, you cant come into this country. You got to be a citizen, be here, you have to be a green card holder. So if youre pregnant and you dont have one of those statuses, no admittance allowed, he continued.
As HuffPost noted, The anchor part of Ogles bill refers to the pejorative term, anchor babies, used by many conservatives to describe children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants.....
As the day progressed, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller also appeared on Fox News, and when asked whether the U.S. is prepared to start banning pregnant women, Miller didnt say no, replying instead that there are a lot of things the Trump administration will take a hard look at.
Stephen Miller says the Trump administration will take âa hard lookâ at banning foreign pregnant women from the country

On Wednesday morning, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin also said the administration is prepared to look at restrictions on pregnant travelers to the U.S.
I wont pretend to know what, if anything, will come of this, but I do have a question for proponents of these restrictions: How exactly would U.S. officials go about determining whether someone entering the country is pregnant?
