Fox News: NYT opinion piece concedes 'Trump might have a case on birthright citizenship'
Two law professors argue in a New York Times essay that President Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants may have a strong legal basis. They assert that the historical and legal context of the 14th Amendment could support Trump's position.
The professors question whether parents who enter the U.S. illegally can claim allegiance to the country, suggesting that their children may not be entitled to citizenship under the current interpretation of the law. They note that this issue remains contentious in federal courts.

Fox News: Florida’s move from 2000s vexation to 2020s role model a blueprint for Arizona, lawmakers say
Arizona is looking to reform its election process, drawing lessons from Florida's past issues during the 2000 presidential election. State Senate President Warren Petersen emphasized the need for changes to improve efficiency and public trust, including restricting late ballot drop-offs and on-site tabulation.
However, the proposed reforms face opposition from Arizona Democrats, who argue that the changes could disenfranchise voters. Governor Katie Hobbs has criticized the bill as partisan, while some Republicans assert it enhances election integrity without making voting more difficult.
