#Trump asked #SCOTUS to okay plan to end #BirthrightCitizenship

Trump asked the #SupremeCourt on Thurs to allow US ofcls to begin implementing a limited plan to end birthright #citizenship for #children born in the #UnitedStates to undocumented immigrants & visitors.

Judges in 3 states have issued nationwide orders blocking Trump’s #ExecutiveOrder, which #CivilRights groups & Democratic-led states say is clearly at odds w/the nation’s history & the #Constitution.

Congressional #Republicans are pushing a #Trump backed bill that would make sweeping changes to #VoterRegistration, including requiring those signing up to present documents proving US #citizenship. But tens of millions of Americans say they don't have easy access to such documents, & critics say the proposal would dramatically depress voter participation.

the majority of Venezuelans who have gotten citizenship have, historically been part of the former petroburgeousie. many had the capital to get pay-to-play citizenship. that’s the “reform” passed by neoliberals sometime during the Bush or Obama era (can’t remember): you literally buy up citizenship thru several “investment” schemes.

Venezuelans historically vote REPUBLICAN. they gave Florida to Bush and Trump, TWICE.

now Trump is going after them, looking to take away their #citizenship.

Anticolonial citizenship: from slavery to Windrush

"The histories of European empires are replete with examples of citizenship contestation, wherein colonised peoples sought to leverage their partial ‘insider’ status to advance claims for greater inclusion under imperial rule. In this article, I argue that these examples disclose a hitherto under-theorised form of ‘citizenship as claims-making’, which I refer to as ‘anticolonial citizenship’."

Also, Canada should dissolve its racist economic #slavery #temporaryforeignworkersprogram and build an agreement with Mexico on deeply empowered #workvisas, with #citizenship pathways.

Sooooouch we can do with Mexico withOUT the USA.

Good news!

An online petition calling on the Canadian government to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship has been signed by more than 300,000 people (when told this on X, Musk replied, in a now-deleted post, "Canada is not a real country"). But according to experts, that's highly unlikely to happen. @cbcnews explains why.

While there are more than a quarter-million signatures on the petition to strip Musk of his #Canadian #citizenship - something the government of #Canada cannot do without altering a lot of laws first - there is an order of maginitude fewer signatures on the petition to block #Trump's entry into Canada:
