Multiple lawsuits challenge President Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship for children of undocumented or temporarily residing parents. The lawsuits, filed by Democratic-led states, cities, and the ACLU, argue the order violates the 14th Amendment and existing federal law. The White House defends the order, asserting that the 14th Amendment's "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" clause excludes children of undocumented immigrants from birthright citizenship. This legal battle could become a major Supreme Court case during Trump's second term, with opponents anticipating a lengthy and complex court process. The order itself aims to prevent federal agencies from issuing citizenship documents to affected children born after a specific date.

This executive order from January 20, 2025, declares a national emergency to address the threat posed by international drug cartels and other transnational criminal organizations like Tren de Aragua and MS-13. These groups are deemed to pose a national security risk due to their violence, drug trafficking, and infiltration of governments. The order initiates a process to designate these organizations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations or Specially Designated Global Terrorists, allowing for sanctions and other actions. It also directs preparation for potential use of the Alien Enemies Act. The ultimate goal is to eliminate these groups' presence and ability to threaten the U.S.

Get ready for an exciting breakdown of a blockbuster Supreme Court decision on former President Trump’s indictment! 🚨 The Court tackled the big question: What protections do former presidents have against criminal prosecution? We’ll dive into their ruling—absolute immunity for actions within constitutional authority, presumptive immunity for official acts, and zero immunity for unofficial ones. Plus, we’ll cover the fiery dissenting opinions, the case’s return to the lower courts, and what it all means for the balance of power. Don’t miss this fun and fascinating look at presidential immunity and the limits of executive power! 🇺🇸🎧.

In this episode, we break down the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Bouarfa v. Mayorkas, where the Court affirmed the Secretary of Homeland Security’s discretionary authority to revoke approved visa petitions under 8 U.S.C. §1155. We’ll explore how this decision limits federal court review of such actions under 8 U.S.C. §1252(a)(2)(B)(ii) and why the Court rejected claims that a prior sham marriage determination made revocation mandatory. Tune in for an engaging discussion on what this unanimous ruling means for immigration law, judicial oversight, and the power dynamics in visa adjudications. Don’t miss it! 🎧

The Supreme Court case TikTok Inc. et al. v. Garland addresses the constitutionality of the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, which restricts TikTok's operation in the U.S. due to national security concerns about its Chinese ownership. The majority opinion affirms the lower court's decision, finding the Act's restrictions to be content-neutral and narrowly tailored to address the compelling government interest of preventing data collection by a foreign adversary. A concurring opinion agrees with the outcome but emphasizes the Act's clear implication of First Amendment rights. Another concurrence expresses reservations about the "content-neutral" designation and the use of classified evidence, while ultimately concluding the Act is not unconstitutional.

Join us as we explore the consequences of the Laken Riley Act as we expect it to be signed into law within the first hours of the Trump administration. This law has far reaching effects on the practice of immigration law and the process for immigrants with new grounds of inadmissibility and grounds of removal and even an expansion of mandatory detention.

“Join us as we explore the contentious world of H-1B visas - are they a pathway to innovation or a threat to American jobs? Tune in for an in-depth examination of this complex issue, featuring expert analysis and insights from all sides of the debate. From the tech industry’s reliance on foreign workers to concerns about job displacement, we’ll delve into the facts and figures behind this polarizing topic. With Trump’s sudden shift in stance causing a stir among his supporters, we’ll examine what’s driving the controversy and where this issue might be headed next.”
