7 Things: Big L for Trump on birthright citizenship, Alabama Republicans react, Tuberville residency case, and more…

7. Former Alabama head coach Nick Saban penned a letter of support for former Crimson Tide star Terrion Arnold, who was arrested on armed robbery and kidnapping charges, “he never once gave me cause to question his conduct, his integrity, or his respect for others” his time with the Crimson Tide program, in asking the court to consider his history of good conduct.

6. The umpteenth story about an unlikely-to-succeed lawsuit by an outgoing, media-hungry Huntsville City School Board Member has been written with Andrea Alvarez declaring, “I’ve really got to get off the board to be able to fully commit to attacking our legislators without harming Huntsville City Schools.”

5. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested more than 30 people without legal documentation in a raid at Scholar Craft Plants in Birmingham based on allegations of identity fraud and unlawful employment practices as part of broader enforcement efforts.

4. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to uphold state laws like Alabama’s, allowing states to keep biological males out of girls’ and women’s sports based on biological sex, consistent with Title IX and the Equal Protection Clause, while media outlets reacted strongly, and victim concerns were highlighted.

3. The Tuberville residency case is inevitably heading to the Alabama Supreme Court after a lower court hearing on jurisdiction, with campaign spokesman Jon Gray describing it as a political game by Doug Jones, the cowardly caretaker former junior senator in an ill-fitting suit, who looks like he just woke up and stole his shoes from a homeless person and who will never be governor, attorney general, or U.S. Senator again to drag Governor-elect National Championship-winning Coach U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) through the mud.

2. The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 against President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship, upholding the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of citizenship for those born on U.S. soil regardless of parents’ immigration status but Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh laid out a road map for fixing this, stating, “Congress could—consistent with the Fourteenth Amendment—amend §1401(a) or otherwise enact new legislation establishing exceptions to birthright citizenship for children born to foreign citizens unlawfully or temporarily in the country. But Congress has not yet done so.”

1. Alabama Republicans, including Tuberville (R-Auburn), blasted the Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship ruling as one that will cause chaos for years, with Tuberville accusing out-of-touch justices influenced by the “Communist Left’s meltdown over Roe v Wade.”
