Transcript

SPEAKER_01 0:22

More arguments, more disputes, more drama. It's great.

SPEAKER_00 0:26

Okay, well that's it's all about the conversation and the debate, and you love this kind of stuff because there are so many layers to it. And we were talking about it uh in the last segment that's there were there's a bunch of babies that were born that were in limbo and now they're citizens. I mean basically that's um you know uh what's happened here. But when we're talking about the birthright citizenship, uh is it really about the fact that that an executive order by a president cannot supersede a constitutional amendment rather than actually analyzing the amendment itself?

SPEAKER_01 1:06

Well Washington is an extremely self-serving town. We can convince ourselves that the sun is made of green cheese if we want to. It's really very easy. We've just really got a lot of clever people up here and lobbyists, and we can reinvent history and rewrite anything. And so don't uh don't come to us asking for truth. In what the court decided was I mean, there's nine judges on the court, that's room for at least ten opinions. And so they decided we're going to continue with the current policy of awarding citizenship to any child born in the United States. And that has the greatest advantage of being very convenient and very straightforward. It's like minimum number of rules, minimum number of lawyers, and it sounds very decent. But Washington is just the world is full of people reaching, grabbing, lunging, anything for their advantage. And so, for example, uh more than a million Chinese parents have said, you know, I I'm going to have my child born in the Marianas Island. That's a short flight from China, will land in Marianas, give birth, fly home two days later with a baby and an American passport. No, a million doesn't sound like a loss, but over time you can get several million. And they, of course, will move to America. And down the road, there's going to be an election, and these Chinese people, they will be totally Chinese people, will decide, well, do we want this guy or that woman? And and they'll flip a seat, they'll flip a state, they'll force presidents to change politics. Similarly, we have numerous businesses in the United States. And, you know, it's tough running a business. Competition's tight, people go under, new business, new competitors come up. So a lot of businesses are now advertising jobs abroad and saying, Do you want to work in a Chipotle? Do you want to work in a Wendy's? Do you want to work in a high-tech company? Do you want to work in a bank? Come on over here. And you gotta understand it. We're not gonna pay you much. We really aren't. You're from India, you are gonna be paid $15,000. You're from uh say um Mexico, well, we'll give you $25,000. But if you come and work for us, we'll sponsor you for a visa so you can get legal, and it means you'll win the biggest prize in the world. You'll get to live in America as an American citizen with all your children, and then in a couple of years you'll fly back to India and you'll be the hero of the town. You'll be rich, you'll have a secure future if you if you're an Indian and you get a green card in the US, you can fly back to India. The local will line up women for you to marry under the dowry system. Wow. So there's a massive advantage for many businesses and politicians to give away citizenship. I mean, and the Democrats love the idea of letting illegal migrants have citizenship because migrants are rational and decent people, and they will say the Democrat allowed me into the country, the Democrat legalized me, the Democrat made my children into Americans, I have a moral obligation to vote for the Democrat. So lots of people have an advantage to buy, sell, trade, swap, sneak, steal citizenship. And uh now the Supreme Court has said the US government can do nothing about this. So if you're a Chinese woman who wants to have an American kid, you fly into LA and you give birth. Everybody knows it's a scam. You even write a check for $100,000 to Chinese migrants, and you come out of there with an American citizen, and the government has to stand by with its looking at its fees because it can do nothing about this trade. If you're a legal migrant, you wait just south of Mexico, walk across the border, more difficult now, and give birth on the other side. You have won. And all the mighty forces of the US Department of Homeland Security, all the great national security apparatus in the United States hasn't stopped you from taking a slice of American citizenship. And this is not free. The more citizens there are, the less influence each American has in his town, her library, her job, politics, culture, you name it. So there's plenty of arguments on both sides. Democrats make the argument we're a generous people. America is for the world, we're a nation of immigrants. They don't believe a word of us. Like, that's not fair. It suits them to believe it, so they believe it.

SPEAKER_00 6:09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 6:10

So they support the whole idea. Republicans on the other side say, oh, we don't want to interfere with business, so we're okay with that. But we don't want to lose the election, so we're kind of against that. Um and so they zigzag onwards. Uh and if Americans want to change this, they have to go through an enormous effort. You've seen this in the last couple of years. In order to fix up the border, Americans have had to go through an enormous effort to elect a real estate guy from New York. And they've had to deal with a huge amount of drama and turmoil and media in order to get the border fixed, which which Trump has done. He has stopped illegal migration with South. It's a very simple task, but an extremely arduous one to get government to do.

SPEAKER_00 7:00

Now Trump is asking Congress to to do something, which I think in the long run is a better idea. I mean, executive order is an executive order, and the next president to come in is just going to remove it. So I I mean Right.

SPEAKER_01 7:17

It's the proper way of doing something.

SPEAKER_00 7:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 7:19

So we have laws and regulations.

SPEAKER_00 7:22

But but are they going to do it?

SPEAKER_01 7:24

I mean, no, because because what Congress said, what the court just said yesterday is shut the hell up. You Americans do not get to decide this. We nine judges have said this is the rule. So there's nothing you, Congress, can do. There's nothing regulators can do. Go pound sand, we're in charge, which is preposterous. But fine. So if Americans want to fix this, they're going to have to go through another enormous effort of electing legislators and presidents and having their TV and radio people talk about this, bring it up in the neighborhood cocktail parties, you bring it up at sports events. You just talk and say, this needs to be corrected. And it can be corrected, but the court has set up itself as a huge obstacle. Now, you only have to flip one judge to correct it. The court voted 6-3 against the policy, but it kind of voted 5-4 with one of the judges saying, Look, this is up for Congress to decide. So depends. You don't need you need to move one or two votes in the in the uh Supreme Court. And what you're basically asking is, let us finesse this. Most Americans aggr of course agree with birthright citizenship, but not for the Chinese anchor babies. Not necessarily for the companies that have foreign workers. Not necessarily for um all sorts of for small numbers of others. But Washington wants to control this. The Supreme Court guys want to control this. They feel the Supreme Court guys, they're human too. They feel noble and wonderful. They like gods have descended from the skies, have settled this dispute by these disputatious, angry people. What a crock. So you look, even the Washington Post, which is not a census publication, they ran an op-ed saying, um, gosh, the Supreme Court went too far in this. We should be allowed to debate and discuss this. Because now, if we want to stop birth certificate, birth tourism, you're gonna have to do all sorts of things. You're gonna basically have the feds as standing at the airports saying, Um, that woman looks pregnant and say, invite her over here, please, we need to check with you. Are you pregnant? Uh, take a blood test. So we're going to start checking people all across the border. We're gonna have to do things we don't want to do because the Supreme Court wants to stomach everything with its views. There's lots of things the feds can do. The obvious one is they say to travelers, are you pregnant? If you are pregnant, after denying you are pregnant, denying it, when you land in the airport, we're gonna find you $100,000 and send you home tomorrow. And just make it difficult for these birth tourism businesses to work.

SPEAKER_00 10:21

Yeah, I think that was that's really the answer, um, you know, because it really is a multi-lay-layer issue. You have the person just, you know, maybe six months pregnant, not expecting to give birth on her trip, on her baby moon, you know, before they give birth, and then all of a sudden, that's what you're giving birth, but whatever. But then you have foreign entities that are actually using this to infiltrate us. Maybe not on day one of the babies first, but you know, maybe day uh year 25 when they graduate from our university and then work in our government or vote or whatever. But that's but you know, maybe there are things we can do to um confront the parts of it that are actually harmful to Americans and go after that birth tourism. Um you know, those businesses.

SPEAKER_01 11:18

But now if you try anything, there's going to be a bunch of businesses and advocates dragging you up to the court saying, you're violating this, you're violating that. Yeah, because this is how we solve things in Washington. We fight, we argue, we shout, we yell, we sue. It ain't pretty. And the court doesn't make it easy often. The various groups make it very difficult to solve this. I mean, it you know, it's it's fairly straightforward.

SPEAKER_00 11:46

But they knew, but by doing the executive order, they knew it was going to be challenged. And they knew they knew that it even if it even if it fell on Trump's side, um, you know, or on our side, what would happen is there would be another executive order along the lines coming, you know, to just get rid of his executive order. So we need to do something more permanent anyway. We gotta go the long route.

SPEAKER_01 12:12

Right. And but but to do the long route, it it it makes sense just to make a noise. If if you want to get it into court and have it decided and have it debated by the public, the simplest thing is to sign an executive order saying, this is what we're gonna do. Suddenly everyone has to argue. And now that the court has decided, no, no, you're not, we're gonna do it this way, it makes it much easier for Americans to say, okay, okay, I gotta take out two minutes from my life and think about this. Who do I trust to make the next move on this? And so we're gonna argue it out, and who knows, five, ten, fifteen years, we may actually have some sort of judge say, oh, damn it, okay, you people can decide this. I I let you, just at once, I let you decide it. But, you know, from my point of view, I work in the drama business, I work in the news business. This is great. More arguments, more disputes. But it is a really important issue. Americans are citizens, they have the right that their government represents them and nobody else. And here the judges are saying, we're standing up for everybody, we're working for anybody in the world who wants to have a baby in the U.S. The judges are not working for Americans. Judges are working in this decision. But look, there's uh all sorts of good and bad stuff. And at the same time the judges said that yesterday about birth certificates we're taking over, they also said, okay, we admit it. Transgender doesn't exist, sex exists, and you can't have boys in girl sports because they just say, Well, I'm transgender. So the court does all sorts of good things and bad things as it zigzags forward. And in general, uh, Americans are making progress on some of these issues. And you know, Trump gets replaced and will zigzag forward some other direction.

SPEAKER_00 14:15

He knew this was coming because he sat in on the arguments. So I don't I don't think they were surprised, and I think they are ready for that plan B, like you were saying. Uh Neil Monroe, the Associate Editor of Breitbard, thank you so much for joining us. We appreciate your insight.
