Judge to weigh blocking Trump on birthright citizenship despite supreme court ruling – US politics live

A federal judge is considering whether to block former President Trump’s efforts to challenge birthright citizenship, even though the Supreme Court has already weighed in on the issue. Meanwhile, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is calling out Democrats and climate activists for being too soft on the fossil fuel industry, accusing it of running a massive propaganda campaign to deny climate change.
Editor’s Note: Birthright citizenship is a foundational part of U.S. immigration law, and any attempt to undermine it could have huge ripple effects—especially for families with newborns. At the same time, Whitehouse’s fiery critique highlights the growing frustration among progressives who believe the Democratic Party isn’t doing enough to confront corporate climate denial. Both stories reflect deeper political battles over who gets to be "American" and how aggressively the U.S. should tackle climate change.
