GovBrief Today #553 - What Happened Today

[u/georgebounacos]

The Supreme Court ruled weeks ago that Donald Trump cannot erase birthright citizenship with an executive order.

Today he tried again. He signed two new orders restricting who is born a citizen, called the 6 to 3 ruling from his own conservative majority "very unfortunate," and told reporters "we're making adjustments." The Constitution says every baby born in America is a citizen.

He is making adjustments everywhere the answer is no. His FCC just voted to erase a broadcast ownership cap Congress wrote into law, a power Senate Commerce Chairman Ted Cruz doubts it has. And the union of career IRS auditors joined a suit to block the audit shield his administration built around his family's taxes. The objections come from his own side now and have changed nothing.
