Deplorables gonna deplorable.
MAGA - Some children of US Troops overseas will no longer get automatic American citizenship
- Thread starter JohnBasedow
- Start date
What could possibly be the explanation for this? Please Cons, enlighten me.
I'm no expert but that would seem to raise some constitutional issues as to who is and who is not a United States citizen.
I wonder if this is the act that Trump wanted to give himself the Medal of Honor for. He is just a patriot who loves this county right...

Yes he is...con man.
Wouldn't that make John McCain a non citizen? thought I heard he was born on a military base overseas?
This! Trump is only a conservative when he’s nominating judges and keeping minorities locked up!!!
Maybe it's to post humorously strip John McCain of his citizenship.
They are his enablers and defenders. They chose him as their candidate, they elected him into office, and 90% of them support him.
He’s yours.
My sister would not have been a citizen at birth. Way to crap on military families, Cadet Bone Spurs.
I spent some time in GTMO working with Haitian and Cuban refugees back in the 90s. By US law any child born on a US registered ship in international waters, such as a US Coast Guard cutter, or on a US military base is to be granted US citizenship. Lots and lots of babies were born. Birth certificates were issued listing parents, DOB, vitals all the same stuff you and I have on ours... with just 1 exception... location.
I read an article on this, something about kids born to non United States citizens or some such.
Right, but shouldn’t service members abroad receive the same benefits as those that serve at home?
[Note Cooch's bald-faced dishonesty at the end of this excerpt.]
"...we will not consider children who live abroad with their parents to be residing in the United States even if their parents are U.S. government employees or U.S. service members stationed outside of the United States.”
Instead of the previously granted automatic citizenship, the service member or government employee will have to “obtain a Certificate of Citizenship, their U.S. citizen parent must apply for citizenship on their behalf under [Immigration and Nationality Act] 322, by filing Form N-600K, and show they meet the qualifications,” the agency said. “As a result, these children will no longer be considered to have acquired citizenship automatically under INA 320,” the current provision U.S. Code of the Immigration and Nationality Act that grants those children automatic citizenship.
The policy announcement generated immediate confusion as to which military dependents would be impacted. The Defense Department did not have an immediate comment on the policy change.
In a tweet following the policy’s release, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Acting Director Kenneth Cucchinelli said: “The policy update doesn’t deny citizenship to the children of US [government] employees or members of the military born abroad. This policy aligns USCIS’ process with the Department of State’s procedures for these children - that’s it. Period.”

Trump is one of the biggest cons in the last 50 years. Maybe not a conservative, but absolutely a con.
They have to apply for citizenship.
You don't have to apply if you already have it. So they don't have it.
If you have to apply, that means you can be denied. So they won't necessarily get it.
Now reread what Cooch said.
I didn’t think you were in that camp. I’m just shouting into the void.
