I strongly agree with Elie's five-alarm-fire take. And I respectfully but firmly disagree with those who think today's disastrous decision will be fairly easy for lawyers to work around.
Make no mistake, the SCOTUS decision about birthright citizenship IS ALSO ABOUT *birthright citizenship.*
The Court is using nationwide injunctions as the tail, wagging the dog, to take us back to an Antebellum view of citizenship.
That way led to war once.

The Supreme Court's Birthright Citizenship Ruling Is a Five-Alarm Catastrophe
In Trump v. CASA, the court hands the president yet more unaccountable authority—and yanks us into a neo-Confederate legal nightmare.

This is a big deal—not just a process-based ruling, but a holding that Trump’s Alien Enemy Act proclamation is substantively invalid on its face.
This will obviously not be the last word, but it’s a really important step in the AEA litigation.
