NB This is the comment of Ultra-conservative Professor John Yoo -- he of the (in)famous Bush Waterboard memo: “I think this issue has been settled for another 100 years,” said John Yoo, a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley, who was a top Justice Department lawyer during the George W. Bush administration. Chief Justice Roberts’s opinion, Professor Yoo said, “is very confident and declaratory about the meaning of the 14th Amendment.” It was a sign, he said, that affirming the principle of birthright citizenship for almost everyone was “never in doubt.” https://newyorkgazette.com/the-birthright-decision-was-surprisingly-close-some-legal-scholars-say/
