President Donald Trump’s push to end birthright citizenship hit yet another legal roadblock on Friday — and the White House is not staying quiet.
In a fiery ruling, U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin blocked Trump’s executive order aimed at stopping the automatic citizenship of children born to illegal immigrants. This is now the third time a court has stepped in to defend the broken status quo — despite a Supreme Court ruling last month that was supposed to limit these sweeping injunctions.
🔹 Trump’s Order Under Fire — Again
The Trump administration’s executive action was clear: no more automatic citizenship for children born in the U.S. if neither parent is a citizen or legal resident. It was a move widely supported by patriotic Americans fed up with illegal immigration and system abuse.
But liberal judges keep fighting it.
Judge Sorokin claimed there was “no workable, narrower alternative” to blocking the entire order nationwide — a move that drew immediate backlash from the Trump team.
“These courts are misinterpreting the purpose and the text of the 14th Amendment,” said White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson. “We look forward to being vindicated on appeal.”
🔹 Legal Games and Political Bias?
The Biden-appointed judge accused the administration of failing to provide an alternative plan — yet offered no real path forward himself.
Sorokin argued that the administration’s stance “fails to align with either legal standards or common sense,” and declared the executive order “unconstitutional” at this stage.
He admitted the Supreme Court will ultimately settle the issue, but until then, the judge’s own opinion takes precedence.
🔹 Third Judge to Block the Order
Sorokin’s ruling follows two other court decisions this month that blocked Trump’s executive action. A federal judge in New Hampshire paused his ruling to allow time for appeal — which the DOJ chose not to pursue, letting the block take effect.
A U.S. appeals court also recently ruled against the order, calling it unconstitutional.
All of these rulings fly in the face of the American people’s demand for stronger borders and immigration enforcement.
🔹 What’s Next? Supreme Court Showdown Looms
Legal analysts believe this battle is far from over. With a 6-3 conservative majority on the Supreme Court — thanks to Trump’s own appointments — the case is expected to return to the high court, where the odds are finally in favor of the Constitution.
New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin, a Democrat leading the charge against Trump, claimed: “American-born babies are American.” But critics say that sentiment ignores how birthright loopholes are exploited by illegal immigrants.
🔹 Bottom Line
This is not just a legal battle — it’s a fight for America’s future. President Trump isn’t backing down, and millions of patriotic Americans are standing behind him.
👉 Stay tuned as this high-stakes showdown heads to the Supreme Court — where the rule of law might finally prevail.
