I'll be blunt; if we're wrong and they overturn birthright citizenship then my biggest fear is that we're on the path to a new civil war. After all, that's what happened with Dred Scott 1.0, and this would be Dred Scott 2.0.
I don’t necessarily disagree with this prediction, but I do think it would be helpful for people if litigators and legal scholars wrote about what happens if they’re wrong and the court does rule in the administration’s favor
To give some sense of why I am so confident about this, I have talked to MANY other litigators on these issues, some of the top people in the country, and my views are almost universally held. The broad consensus among pretty much everyone I know is that the Court will rule against him on this.

Listen, Tig Notaro already had me on board, but as long as Paul Giamatti gets to live his best life voraciously eating the scenery, I'm a stan.

Does Heritage Support Discrimination Against Women?
The organization’s recent hiring reveals a willingness to countenance views decisively outside the American mainstream.
