Stripping U.S. citizenship for some is harder than Trump vowed : NPR npr.org/2026/06/02/g-s1-1248…

Trump vowed to revoke hundreds of citizenships. It's proving harder to do

President Trump's vow to revoke citizenship worries immigrant advocates, legal scholars and naturalized Americans — but so far it's proving harder to do than the rhetoric suggests.

Obviously, the tax code has replaced the constitution. There is no other explanation left.

No governmental unit or anyone else may impose any obligation that shifts, cancels, dilutes, destroys, abridges, or affects citizenship. And yet, it's clear that Americans abroad are second-class citizens. Read Laura's full article here: ssrn.pulse.ly/d0jwl8qbfm.

Laura argues that this occurs in violation of the 14th Amendment, which guarantees citizenship to every person born or naturalized in the United States. As the U.S. Supreme Court held in Afroyim v. Rusk, the 14th Amendment completely controls citizenship, placing it beyond the power of any governmental unit or anyone else to destroy.
