Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett continues to stab President Trump in the back on behalf of the left.

But Barrett didn’t count on one response.

And Amy Coney Barrett thought she crippled Trump’s agenda but never saw this bold move coming.

Barrett and Chief Justice John Roberts thought it was mission accomplished when they joined the court’s three liberals to install birthright citizenship for illegal aliens into the U.S. Constitution.

Roberts claimed that opening up a loophole in the 14th Amendment, so Democrats could flood America with anchor babies, represented the “promise” of America.

“Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights— to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land,’” Roberts wrote in the majority opinion. “We keep that promise today.” 

President Trump and his supporters were outraged by Barrett and Roberts’ assault on the concepts of American sovereignty and citizenship.

But Barrett, Roberts, and the rest of the pro-open borders crowd shrugged it off as venting since they wrote their opinion in such a way that only a Constitutional Amendment, which is impossible since Democratic states and members of Congress will never provide the votes to reach the two-thirds threshold for ratification, is practically impossible.

The Trump administration still had a few tricks up its sleeve.

Just because the Supreme Court said babies born to illegal aliens on American soil get citizenship doesn’t mean the administration has to allow pregnant illegal aliens onto American soil in the first place.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told reporters that Trump’s first move was instructing the Department of Justice to crack down on birth tourism schemes,

“Well, from a Department of Justice standpoint, it’s obviously focusing our prosecutors and our law enforcement partners on birthing tourism,” Blanche said at a press conference. “It’s a booming industry, and it will continue [to be], given the Supreme Court’s decision yesterday.”

Blanche also hinted that the administration could block pregnant women from obtaining visas or block entry into the country for noncitizen women of childbearing age.

“There are other things that DHS can do, and the federal government can do in the visa process and the application process to try to minimize or limit the opportunity of folks coming here not to visit, not to do what they’re saying on their tourist visa, just to have a baby that can be a U.S. citizen,” Blanche added.

Blanche made it clear that President Trump considered this a fundamental fight and that the administration intended to pull every lever at its disposal.

“From our standpoint, it’s focusing on what is improper. Everybody should agree that it’s a violation of our laws if your intent in coming here, if you’re pregnant, is to have a child to become a United States citizen because of our laws,” Blanche concluded.
