China’s Infiltration of America: Part 2, Birthright Citizenship

In Part 1 of China’s Exploitation of America, we wrote about election fraud. In a July 16 address to the nation, President Trump reviewed several areas of election compromise, one of which is China’s acquisition and exploitation of American voter data. Read Part 1 here.

Like Part 1, Part 2 is inspired by Dr. Tenpenny’s recent interview with T. Casey Fleming about his book Red Tsunami. Part 2 covers birthright citizenship. Let’s begin.
 
By now, you’ve probably seen Spain being overrun with thousands of migrants from Morocco. It’s visually stunning, immediately giving a real image of a country truly being overrun.
America is also being overrun. We also saw the visuals during the Biden open border era, but the truth is that we’ve been taken advantage of in a far more insidious way for far longer than most people realize. 
The mechanism? Birthright citizenship.

Americans feel even more taken advantage of since the latest SCOTUS ruling upheld that basically any baby born on American soil is a citizen. So, even if the father has raped and murdered several women, that baby still gets to call himself an American.
 
Prior to this year’s July 30 ruling, SCOTUS had not heard a birthright case since 1956, Reid v. Covert, considered a landmark case because the court granted a rehearing and ultimately reversed its own earlier decision—a rarity. The Court ruled in 1956 that American civilians accompanying the military overseas could be tried by military courts. After granting rehearing, it reversed itself in a 1957 decision, holding that U.S. citizens abroad remain protected by the Constitution and generally cannot be tried by military tribunals in peacetime.


Recent Events

On July 30, President Trump said that the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on birthright citizenship costs the country “trillions and trillions” of dollars. The June 30 SCOTUS ruling addressed the constitutional question directly and held that children born in the US to parents who are in the country unlawfully or temporarily are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the Fourteenth Amendment and are therefore US citizens at birth. The ruling rejected Trump’s previous executive order that sought to deny automatic citizenship to those children. 


The Origins

The 14th Amendment of the US Constitution contains a citizenship clause. This amendment was ratified in 1868, after the Civil War, but it has much older origins. It started with the English Common Law principle of jus soli (“right of the soil”) which basically said that anyone born within the King’s dominions was generally considered a natural-born subject. Naturally, this principle influenced the American colonies.

Prior to this Amendment, the Constitution did not clearly define who was a US citizen. Each state differed, but there was no uniform national citizenship. The famous Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857) Supreme Court case held that people of African descent could not be US citizens, even if they were born in the United States. The Dred Scott case decision became a principal driver for Congress seeking the amendment after the Civil War.

That decision became one of the principal reasons Congress sought a constitutional amendment after the Civil War. Basically, the 14th Amendment says that all persons born in the United States are citizens, but there is a catch phrase, or an “out” that has long been legally debated: “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”

At its essence, the 14th Amendment was intended to ensure citizenship for formerly enslaved people and their children. The original amendment originally excluded some tribal Native Americans, but Congress later granted birthright citizenship to all Native Americans through the Indian Citizenship Act in 1924. The amendment also excluded children born to enemy forces occupying US territory.


The Debate

Whether the phrase “enemy forces” applies to children born to parents who are unlawfully present in the United States is the subject of ongoing legal and political debate. Thirty years after the amendment, the Supreme Court case of United States v. Wong Kim Ark decided this matter.  The case concerned a child born in San Francisco to Chinese parents who were lawful permanent residents, but not eligible for naturalization/citizenship under laws at the time. SCOTUS ruled the child was a US citizen by birth because the child was born on US soil. The court relied heavily on English common-law principles of jus soli.

The 1898 case set the precedent that is still followed today, meaning that nearly everyone born in the US is a citizen, with a few exceptions (foreign diplomats, enemy occupiers, etc.) But here is where the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” comes into play; under this view, children of parents who are unlawfully present or owe primary allegiance to another country may not automatically qualify for citizenship.


Infiltration From Within

Bleeding heart liberals will tell you that classifying these kids as “enemy forces” is simply too harsh. Certainly, it’s not the kid’s fault, but their parents are at fault because they are knowingly here in our country illegally. How many of you have traveled to Japan? Austria? Pick any country. If you had your baby there, would he be a citizen?

Actually, the US is one of 30 countries that have similar birthright citizenship laws following the jus soli principle. Most are in the Americas, including Canada, Mexico, Argentina and Brazil. Some countries used to have fairly open birthright laws, but have since tightened regulations or abolished it altogether due to exploitation by illegal immigrants. Examples include Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. Most countries on our planet follow jus sanguinis (“right of blood”), meaning citizenship is inherited from one or both parents rather than determined solely by birthplace.

America is being infiltrated in two ways. Women in their third trimester enter the country illegally, give birth, and voila! the child is an American citizen. We can refer to Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas. By the way, this has been going on for a long, long time. In 2009, Parkland hospital reported approximately 15,000 births, and 11,000 of them (75%) were to women who could not provide proof of US citizenship. Most of these women were believed to be in the country illegally. Today, there are 320,000 illegal immigrants just in Dallas County alone, and 44% are women. Nationwide, about 300,000 of these births occur each year (the latest figures are from Pew Research Center in 2023), and represent about 10% of all US births.

Secondly, we have birth tourism, where someone travels to the US legally on a temporary visa (or under another lawful entry mechanism) specifically to give birth so the child acquires citizenship.
And it is a BIG business. And it has also been going on longer than you may think. In 2019, Dongyuan Li, 41, a Chinese national pled guilty to federal criminal charges for running an Orange County-based birth tourism business. It catered to wealthy pregnant clients and Chinese government officials, charging each client $0,000 to $80,000 to help them give birth in the US so their children would gain citizenship. She was one of 19 defendants charged in a series of indictments. The group maintained 20 apartments, and Li raked in $3 million in international wire transfers from China in two years.
Birth tourism is also rampant in the five inhabited US territories, where children born their gain automatic citizenship regardless of a parent’s nationality. Only American Samoans are not automatically conferred US citizenship upon birth.


Congress, Do Your Duty

Trump’s Executive Order has been nullified, and SCOTUS has spoken. Justice Kavanaugh basically laid out the roadmap for Congress. They must legislate. It is their job after all. Senator Banks has introduced the Citizenship Act, citing the 1898 law to end this once and for all. Brandon Gill has been investigating companies that help foreign nationals travel to the US to give birth. He says they are likely engaging in a criminal conspiracy. “Right now, under current law, birth tourism is illegal. You cannot come into the United States for the purpose of giving birth,” Gill said.

State Department regulations prohibit foreign nationals from obtaining visitor visas when consular officers determine that their primary purpose is traveling to the US to give birth so their child obtains citizenship. Gill has quietly been looking into several companies since at least 2025. He has cited examples like the Women’s Center at Mission Regional Medical Center in Mission, Texas, right across from Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico. The Spanish-language billboard advertised a now-defunct “Have My Baby In Texas” website, and quoted Mission Regional as providing births for $3,950 and Cesarean sections for $5,525. It also displayed a phone number that included “001,” the country code required for international calls to the US.

It is astounding, and this is certainly a far cry from the “Give me your tired, your poor,
your huddled masses” from the Statue of Liberty. We are being overrun. It’s intentional, and it’s been going on for a long, long time.

Meet Jamie Walden, of Omega Dynamics. Imbued with matchless passion for all things “adventurous” and “fun”, Jamie’s teen years were filled with significant tumult (injuries, arrests, and choices of near life-long consequence). However, amid the rebellion and ruckus, Jamie continually endeavored to one day earn the title, “U.S. Marine”. After being nominated to attend the National Youth Leadership Forum on Defense, Intelligence, and Diplomacy in Washington, D.C., where he subsequently secured a nomination to the US Naval Academy, Jamie made the determination to simply enlist in the Marine Corps Infantry and achieve his childhood dream.

After leaving the Marines Corps, Jamie obtained a double major B.S. in Law Enforcement and History. Pursuing a career in Federal Law Enforcement, Jamie was selected as an Intern for the United States Marshals Service, and subsequent recruitment to a “Three Letter” agency. It was then, when Jamie received “the call”, that the Lord began testing and affirming the genuineness of his faith.

After again returning to Iraq in 2014 to serve the Christians suffering under the savage campaign of ISIS, Jamie and his wife Virginia were compelled to surrender their paradigm and follow the Lord into full-time ministry.

“The Mission of Omega Dynamics is this: to teach, train and equip “Those with ears to hear” to stand anew in their rightful place as more than conquerors in a kingdom that cannot be shaken…this generation is literally, eternally dying for us to”
