Episode Details

The Trump administration missed its final chance to challenge the Supreme Court’s landmark birthright citizenship ruling—after a frantic 25-day window closed with no petition filed. The Court had decisively struck down the executive order denying citizenship to children born in the U.S. to undocumented parents, 6-3, with Justice Kavanaugh’s dissent offering a legal loophole the White House hoped to exploit. President Trump had publicly vowed to seek a rehearing, but with no action taken by the deadline, the door to legal recourse through the Court is now shut. Experts say it’s nearly impossible to get the Court to reconsider a decision without a majority justice changing their mind—something that didn’t happen. The administration’s hopes now rest on Congress, but the clock has run out on the Supreme Court.
