Birthright facts

Posted July 07, 2026 4:38 pm

On Monday, Glen Taras claimed the Daily Herald showed bias and TDS relating to the reporting on birthright citizenship. His claim that most countries don’t have this citizenship can be disputed with a little research.

Over 30 countries allow birthright citizenship, including all of North America, Central America and all but one country in South America. Additionally, at least as many bestow citizenship if one parent is a citizen or legal resident.

This has nothing to do with hating Trump and America and more to do with following the Constitution.
