Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee is once more taking aim at birth tourism, reviving her Ban Birth Tourism Act and pushing the battle over American citizenship back onto Congress now that the Supreme Court has shut the executive door.

Recent trends aren’t exactly vindicating this rhetoric. A recent study done by the website Axios showed that the number of Hispanics in the United States describing themselves as religiously unaffiliated rose to 23% in 2025, up from 18% in 2013. The shift was particularly pronounced…

His efforts enacting the “Donroe Doctrine,” which has resulted in a renaissance as nation after nation rejects socialism and chooses freedom across Latin America, have been particularly impressive, especially considering the fifth column working within the State Department to undermine him.
