Summary

In this conversation, Carl Jackson and Amy Swearer discuss the contentious issue of birthright citizenship in the United States, particularly in light of Trump's executive order. They explore the historical context of the 14th Amendment, debunk common misconceptions surrounding citizenship laws, and analyze the implications of recent legal challenges. Swearer emphasizes the need to return to the original understanding of citizenship as intended by the framers of the Constitution, while also addressing the role of the executive branch and international perspectives on the issue.
