A disgraced attorney who tried to help President Donald Trump overturn the 2020 election has been revealed as the secret driving force behind the administration’s effort to end birthright citizenship.
John Eastman has been working for decades to convince the Supreme Court to take up his fringe legal theory that the Constitution doesn’t automatically confer citizenship on virtually all people born in the U.S., despite the 14th Amendment’s explicit guarantees.
The justices will hear oral arguments on the subject Wednesday in a case challenging a Trump executive order that seeks to end birthright citizenship.
