What does it mean to be born in America—and can a president take that away? In this episode of Waxing Confidential, Steve Wax unpacks the Supreme Court’s ruling in Trump v. CASA, a case that may gut the power of federal courts and put birthright citizenship at risk. We explore the dangerous legal gamesmanship at play, the rise of a patchwork nation, and why this decision may be a turning point for American democracy.
