Among the worst of his quickly-lengthening list of outrages, say critics, is Donald Trump’s vow to end “birthright citizenship”, by which women who enter the U.S. illegally and give birth there claim U.S. citizenship for their child, themselves and, in many cases, other family members. While the Constitutional jurisprudence is admittedly complicated, John Daniel Davidson writes in the Federalist that Trump is right to try to stamp out this “pernicious” practice.

Palestinian Culture: Unique in its Own Destructive Way
Although the Palestinian Authority enjoys an array of cultural departments and programs, A.J. Caschetta in Jewish World Review finds that all of it – art, education, literature, poetry, music, education and film – is oriented to two goals: the vilification of Jews and the destruction of Israel. Caschetta notes this is in sharp contrast to Arab and Muslim traditions, which include myriad aesthetically normal cultural works. Palestinianism, Caschetta finds, is “a very sick culture”, driven by resentment and fuelled by hate.
