Wow!! Nice analysis. So basically it’s way too involved especially with this supreme Ct than what my one sentence covers. Agreed. Makes me want to put down the wine and read the cases.

In general… your best bet is to always read the actual orders, opinions, etc. Very few people in the media know enough law and history to report things properly.
I can because I’m one of those people… although I don’t do it anymore. I always go for the primary document. I always want to read the actual opinion, the ruling, the EO, etc. There are always nuances that get missed by the media… but it’s in those nuances that the law lives.
This whole thing is going to come down to those magic words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” on a case from 1898. And prior to me (and a few others that spotted what he was up to Monday night as soon as we could read the actual EO) all everyone heard was he was trying to end the 14th Amendment. No, he’s trying to redefine US citizenship by having the Supreme Court do his dirty work and disenfranchise millions of Americans and their progeny in the process. That point has yet to be covered in the press.
If the Court does what I predict… millions of Americans will effectively lose their natural born status as American citizens. Because the law doesn’t operate in a vacuum and it doesn’t operate only for the exception.
