From video: The Bar Is in Hell: Why Birthright Citizenship Isn't the Win It Looks Like
Published: April 6, 2026

Video Description

Last week saw oral arguments in the birthright citizenship case, Trump v. Barbara, and listeners, it finally happened: a legal argument so outlandish from the Trump administration that even this Court will have to rule against him. SUBSCRIBE to our channel 👉   @strictscrutinypodcast Leah and Melissa break down the back-and-forth and explain why this case will give SCOTUS credibility it doesn’t deserve. They also cover the President’s firing of the blonde with the binders, Pamela Jo Bondi–pouring one out for her chaotic, destructive reign at the Department of Justice.
