Rep. Andy Ogles on the Birthright Citizenship Ruling and the Anchors Away Bill

At 1:03:17 · chapter starts 1:00:40

Rep. Andy Ogles opens by reacting to an ICE confrontation — a man who rammed ICE vehicles rather than submit to arrest — as a symbol of the broader immigration dysfunction. He then addresses the Supreme Court's birthright citizenship ruling directly, calling it a serious error. Ogles argues Congress has spent decades abdicating its legislative responsibility, kicking these questions to the Supreme Court rather than writing clear law. His proposed remedy is the Anchors Away bill, which would redefine 'alien' under federal statute so that pregnant non-citizens and non-green-card-holders cannot give birth on US soil to confer automatic citizenship. His legal foundation is Jacob Howard's own Senate testimony from 1866, which explicitly stated the 14th Amendment 'will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners or aliens'. Ogles also previews his companion Assimilation Act and Remigration Act, the latter of which would allow denaturalization of people who lied on their N-400 citizenship applications. The segment includes a lighthearted digression: what happens if a non-citizen gives birth on a plane over US airspace?

Rep. Ogles' 'Anchors Away' Bill: Redefining Alien to End Birth Tourism

The Preliminary Hearing Plan + DSA’s Democrat Takeover · Jul 2, 2026 Government

Rep. Andy Ogles' Anchors Away bill would redefine 'alien' legislatively, so that pregnant non-citizens and non-green-card-holders cannot use US soil to confer citizenship on their children. Ogles cites the original author of the 14th Amendment, Jacob Howard, who explicitly said it would not cover foreigners — Congress just failed to codify that intent.

A Million Chinese Children — Born American, Raised Communist

The Preliminary Hearing Plan + DSA’s Democrat Takeover · Jul 2, 2026 Government

Approximately one million children of Chinese nationals have been born on US soil — mostly in places like Guam and Los Angeles — and are being raised in China. Rep. Ogles, as chair of the Cyber Infrastructure Protection subcommittee, says classified briefings confirm China, China, China as the top threat. Every one of those children is constitutionally eligible to run for the US presidency.
