White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller says birthright citizenship is essentially an “illegal” immigration program.   “One point not made enough on immigration: when you have a national program (an illegal suicidal one) of granting ‘birthright’ citizenship to the child of any and every foreigner who sets foot on your soil, you must be infinitely more cautious about who to allow into your country,” Miller wrote on X Tuesday.   The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Construction established birthright citizenship in 1868, stating: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”   “Birthright citizenship also renders so many statistics invalid or absurd,” Miller continued. “If any foreign national comes to the US and has a child, and that child uses welfare, fails a state test, commits a crime, goes to jail, etc. those outcomes are all recorded in the ‘American’ column.”   One point not made enough on immigration: when you have a national program (an illegal suicidal one) of granting “birthright” citizenship to the child of any and every foreigner who sets foot on your soil, you must be infinitely more cautious about who to allow into your country.— Stephen Miller (@StephenM) December 23, 2025 President Donald Trump thrust the issue into the news on his first day back in office on Jan. 20, when he signed the executive order “Protecting the Value and Meaning of American Citizenship” which aims to end automatic birthright citizenship.  Trump’s executive order focuses on the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” and claims that children born to illegal immigrants are not subject to U.S. jurisdiction and thus are not legal citizens.     Trump’s order further claims that citizenship does not automatically extend to a person whose father is not a citizen or lawful resident and whose mother is in the U.S. lawfully but only temporarily, such as through a visa program.   A coalition of states immediately sued to block Trump’s  order, and on Dec. 5 the Supreme Court agreed to hear arguments in what is expected to be its biggest case of 2026.  The post Top Trump Official Bashes Birthright Citizenship as ‘Illegal Suicidal’ Immigration Program   appeared first on The Daily Signal.

DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Former Republican Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse announced Tuesday that he has been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Sasse, 53, resigned from his second term in the Senate in 2023 to become president of the University of Florida. He later left that position in July 2024, citing concerns about the health of his wife, who was diagnosed with epilepsy. “Last week I was diagnosed with metastasized, stage-four pancreatic cancer, and am gonna die,” Sasse wrote in a lengthy statement posted to social media. “Advanced pancreatic is nasty stuff; it’s a death sentence. But I already had a death sentence before last week too — we all do.” Friends-This is a tough note to write, but since a bunch of you have started to suspect something, I’ll cut to the chase: Last week I was diagnosed with metastasized, stage-four pancreatic cancer, and am gonna die. Advanced pancreatic is nasty stuff; it’s a death sentence.…— Ben Sasse (@BenSasse) December 23, 2025 “I’m blessed with amazing siblings and half-a-dozen buddies that are genuinely brothers,” Sasse continued. “As one of them put it, ‘Sure, you’re on the clock, but we’re all on the clock.’ Death is a wicked thief, and the bastard pursues us all.” Ben and Melissa Sasse are the parents of three children and the former senator highlighted the pain of dying while they are still in the early stages of life. Sasse shared in his post that his eldest daughter joined the Air Force, his second daughter recently graduated from college and his 14-year-old son is learning to drive. “This is hard for someone wired to work and build, but harder still as a husband and a dad,” added the Nebraska Republican. Sasse served eight years in the Senate after being first elected in 2014. He was one of seven Republican senators who voted to convict Trump during his second impeachment trial following the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol. The Nebraska Republican highlighted his Christian faith in his statement announcing the pancreatic cancer diagnosis. “I’ll have more to say. I’m not going down without a fight,” Sasse wrote in the statement. “One sub-part of God’s grace is found in the jawdropping advances science has made the past few years in immunotherapy and more. Death and dying aren’t the same — the process of dying is still something to be lived.” “But for now, as our family faces the reality of treatments, but more importantly as we celebrate Christmas, we wish you peace: ‘The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned….For to us a son is given’ (Isaiah 9),” Sasse continued.

Axios: 60 Minutes Lied About Trump Admin Response

On Tuesday morning, David Bozell, President of the Media Research Center (MRC), joined WMAL’s Larry O’Connor on O’Connor & Company to discuss the latest evidence of media hostility toward President Donald Trump. Bozell revealed a staggering statistic from MRC’s latest study: late-night talk shows have aired over 7,000 jokes targeting Trump alone. “It’s a miracle,” Bozell remarked, citing a recent Newsweek report showing Trump’s approval rating climbing back to 49.5%. “He’s that high with 92% negative coverage in the news media and 92% negative jokes against him.” Bozell noted that conservative guests on shows like The View are rare and often invited only to be mocked. He cited appearances by Cheryl Hines (Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 's wife) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the latter booked solely to criticize Trump. Bozell praised the Trump team’s willingness to engage hostile outlets despite the relentless negativity. “The Trump Team is not afraid to go on any of these shows,” he said, referencing Susie Wiles granting 11 interviews to Vanity Fair and Trump’s first post-election interview appearing on NBC’s Meet the Press. “Don’t be afraid of these guys, go into the lion’s den and get your message across.” He also pushed back against conservative panic over temporary dips in Trump’s polling. “A, they’re back up, and B, he’s undergoing an onslaught from both the news and infotainment media.” Bozell’s appearance underscores a broader point: Trump’s political resilience is remarkable given the unprecedented level of negative coverage and comedic attacks. As the new administration prepares to take office, the MRC president’s message is clear, expect continued bias, but don’t expect it to silence the Trump team. Listen to full interview here.
