Children of gay American parents born abroad are not citizens

The Daily Beast - Trump State Department to LGBT Couples: Your ‘Out of Wedlock’ Kids Aren’t Citizens

Quote:
But Kessem was about to become the latest victim of a government policy that effectively de-recognizes her parents’ marriage, granting her no automatic rights to American birthright citizenship despite the fact that both her fathers are U.S. citizens. That policy, Kessem’s fathers told The Daily Beast, poses a unique threat to LGBT families, and could change the decades-old legal understanding of what the word “family” even means.
How do we march to this one?

Just how can that be?
Both parents needing to be citizens in order for a child to be one?

What about any single parents with a child born overseas?

Divorced?

Noway this will be legal.

It's obviously going to be challenged. Just like the Alabama abortion law us going to be challenged. Trump is using the Presidency just like he used his business...weaponizing the fucked up US legal system to fuck over people. Because fucking over as many people as possible is what he lives for.

With the help of Pruneface, the SCOTUS has been loaded, weaponized to make it all possible. Trump and every Republican in the Congress have been able to put two white men on the high court who despise the authority of legislative branch, and will do everything in their power to strip the legislative branch of any control over the occupant of the Oval Office.

But we should be using every legal means possible to kick his ass to the curb as quickly as possible.

"Because fucking over as many people as possible is what he lives for."

I think you've got that dead right.

Both immediate harm, and long term damage to the Constitutional system, are occurring.
