“Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship”—better known as the birthright citizenship executive order —attempts to cancel the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution. Getting rid of constitutional amendments via executive order is new, and, for me at least, “the worst.”

People claiming the U.S. government would revoke the second lady's citizenship did so with a misunderstanding of a January 2025 executive order.

Only hours after being sworn into office, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that would end birthright citizenship. Can he do that?
