MSM Makes A Sudden Discovery About 'Anchor Babies'
2019-07-29
[Townhall] Conservatives have long said one of the major issues with illegal immigration is the number of pregnant women who come to the United States solely so their child can be born on American soil. They know that a child born in the United States automatically makes the child an American and, because of that, the parents are allowed to stay in our country. And all of them are able to reap the benefits of being an American, including access to various welfare programs.

Liberals and the mainstream media typically ignore that fact, no matter how much it is presented to them. NBC News, however, did something shocking: they actually did an "exposé" on that very scenario...and acknowledged what conservatives have said for years.

Because of President Donald Trump's agreement with Mexico, those who file asylum claims must remain in Mexico while their case is decided. It's part of the "Remain in Mexico" plan that was recently established.

Only because SCOTUS says so. The line in the 14th Amendment was there to prevent southern states at the time from excluding blacks as citizens in the post civil war era. It was never intended as SCOTUS has chosen to 'interpreted' it.
