hey @jedshug.bsky.social we made the Catholic press www.americamagazine.org/news/2026/02...

Great brief, really enjoyed reading through this - Very nice work @nbaron.bsky.social and team.

First up, CASA et al explain how any child of their client Monica subject to the EO would likely be rendered stateless. They explain how byzantine process outlined by the Trump Admin for how the EO would be implemented only increases that risk. 2/

Yesterday I filed an #AmicusCuriae brief at #SCOTUS in the birthright citizenship case. It presents stories of 3 families of Japanese ancestry--w/o legal allegiance to the USA--to show citizenship derives from birth on US soil, not parental loyalties. #lawsky #skystorians tinyurl.com/3hy76638

Two amicus briefs I enjoyed reading in support of birthright citizenship at the Supreme Court: @kewhittington.bsky.social’s: www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25... @evanbernick.bsky.social and @jedshug.bsky.social’s: www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25... I highly recommend them if y’all have time.

this is a great brief and it appropriately ends with a killshot: the simple observation that if trump's meaning held, the birthright clause would not have overturned dred scott, the one thing it was absolutely meant to do.

Brief day on the feed: I really appreciated @jedshug.bsky.social and @evanbernick.bsky.social’s brief because it grounded its originalism in clear and thoughtful method.

Another superb amicus brief explaining why the Trump administration's argument against birthright citizenship is bunk--this one on explicitly originalist grounds. Thank you @jedshug.bsky.social @evanbernick.bsky.social and the rest of the team for this sharp brief

Pretty straightforward from here
