Why Birthright Citizenship Is a Legislative Matter—Not Judicial or Executive

By Michael Taylor | ThaWilsonBlock Magazine The question of who qualifies for American citizenship is not just a moral or political debate — it is a constitutional one. For over a century, courts and executive agencies have applied birthright citizenship in a way that defies the intent of the 14th Amendment and undermines Congress’s constitutional authority. This practice, particularly as it applies to children born to undocumented immigrants, raises a serious challenge: > Can individuals derive irrevocable constitutional benefits from ongoing unlawful presence? And if not, why has the judiciary allowed it? This question strikes at the heart of the rule of law. The answer lies in decades of misinterpretation, judicial drift, and administrative neglect. The issue is not emotional. It is structural. And it belongs squarely with Congress, not the courts or the White House. --- 🔎 The 14th Amendment’s Soft Spot: Jurisdiction The 14th Amendment states: > “All persons born ...

Ancient DNA Reveals Genetic Link Between Early Egypt and Mesopotamia

Ancient DNA Reveals Genetic Link Between Early Egypt and Mesopotamia

New research has uncovered a striking genetic connection between ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, shedding light on the movement of people across early civilizations nearly 5,000 years ago.

Scientists sequenced the genome of a remarkably preserved skeleton found in a sealed burial pot at Egypt’s Nuwayrat tomb site. Dating between 4,495 and 4,880 years ago—around the time the Great Pyramid of Giza was built—the individual’s DNA revealed that about 80% of his ancestry was North African, while 20% traced to the Fertile Crescent, the birthplace of Mesopotamian civilization.

Pontus Skoglund of the Crick Institute, a co-author of the study published in Nature, explained, “It allows us to take a big step into the ancient DNA record of Egypt.” He noted that while the closest genetic match is from modern-day Morocco, links to Mesopotamia suggest migration may have accompanied cultural shifts like the advent of farming.

This discovery supports long-suspected ties between Egypt and Mesopotamia, once inferred only from trade goods and shared pottery styles. The Nile, researchers say, likely acted as an “ancient superhighway” for both people and ideas.

The study not only uncovers ancestry but offers a glimpse into a physically demanding life. The man, possibly a potter in his 60s, was buried in a high-status rock-cut tomb. Scientists hope further ancient DNA analysis will clarify how widespread these cultural and genetic exchanges were across early civilizations.
