Donald Trump's birthright citizenship executive order is unconstitutional and must be invalidated. If you were born in America, you are a citizen. It's what the Constitution says, no matter what Trump does.

Don't let Donald Trump extending the TikTok ban distract you from the fact that his Administration is about to conduct mass deportations across America in a matter of days.
