President Trump announced Wednesday that he will ask the Supreme Court to rehear the birthright citizenship case after it ruled against him last month.
The high court quashed Trump’s day-one executive order to end automatic birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants and birth tourists, ruling that it violated the Constitution.
“Signs and Billboards are being put up all over our Southern Border, and Mexico, advertising BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP with ‘Deliveries starting at $4000.'” Trump fumed on Truth Social Wednesday.
“Not sustainable. NOBODY SAW THIS COMING!!!” he added. “AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP IS NOT FOR SALE! In fact, that is a crime, and therefore, the Supreme Court’s ruling is wrong. I will be asking for a Rehearing by the United States Supreme Court, IMMEDIATELY.”
It is very rare for the Supreme Court to rehear cases.
The last time the justices opted to rehear a case they previously decided was in 1965, and that was to address a technical issue, not to issue a full reversal.
The Supreme Court has only reversed a merits ruling once, in 1956’s Reid v. Covert. In that case, the justices initially ruled that American civilians accused of crimes on overseas US military bases could be tried via court-martial before finding the following year that they could not. --->READ MORE HERE

House Speaker Mike Johnson says Republicans are also exploring a congressional fix under the 14th Amendment
President Donald Trump will ask the Supreme Court to reconsider its decision on the birthright citizenship case, he announced on Wednesday.
Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social that the court's decision to uphold birthright citizenship, even in the case of children of illegal immigrants and those in the U.S. temporarily, was "absolutely insane."
The president said he was already seeing examples of the ruling being exploited.
"Signs and Billboards are being put up all over our Southern Border, and Mexico, advertising BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP, with 'Deliveries starting at $4000.' Likewise, similar signs going up all over our Country. Billions of Dollars will be illegally made by this SCAM, with Citizenship going to anyone willing to pay," Trump wrote.
"I will be asking for a Rehearing by the United States Supreme Court, IMMEDIATELY. This miscarriage of justice will destroy America if they don’t change their absolutely insane decision," he added.
The court's ruling allows the losing party to file a petition for a rehearing within 25 days of the ruling being handed down. However, a majority of justices on the court would have to agree to rehearing in order for it to be considered again. --->READ MORE HERE
