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.

The 6-3 decision, handed down on the court’s final day of session, saw Chief Justice John Roberts writing that all children born on U.S. soil “to parents unlawfully or temporarily present” are “citizens at birth” under the 14th Amendment.
Conservatives have sought a way to move forward against birthright citizenship in the days since the ruling, with some saying a constitutional amendment may be necessary.

Others have pointed to arguments from justices like Bret Kavanaugh, who sided with the majority, but did not outright state that the Constitution enshrines birthright citizenship.
Kavanaugh argued in a concurring opinion that Trump’s mistake was imposing limits via executive order, but said those limits might rightfully be imposed by an act of Congress.
