You want to see obvious,blatant media bias just read the title of this article.

It is "Supreme Court petition to stop Donald Trump approaches major milestone".

They are discussing a petition by the leftist ACLU to prevent the Trump Administration from not enforcing an executive order that has already been suspended pending the Supreme Court's ruling.

This peptition has garnered 193,000 signatures - hardly record breaking - and it claims falsely that birthright citizenship goes back to the founding of the country (it doesn't; it is an interpretation of the 14th Amendment passed after the Civil War guaranteeing citizenship to former slaves. Prior to that there was no such thing as birthright citizenship - but it wasn't a big issue either, largely because the country was mostly empty space and how could you enforce legal status on the frontier?

At any rate this isn't even a story, just a piece of political propaganda pretending to be a story, yet here it i in a CNBC "article".

If the media wants to advocate for one side or another they should be honest enough to admit it. This isn't an editorial.

And the presupposition is that Trump is illegally doing this in a vacuum, even though he's waiting for the Supreme Court to decide the issue and a solid majority of Americans want this.

If CNBC wants birthright citizenship why don't they ask Congress to do it? That's because they fear they will lose and right they are; Conngress dare not pass such legislation. Instead they want to pressure the Court into keeping the status quo.

Now why would a news service want to allow people to simply stroll into the country and become citizens? Why risk losing more customers?

Because they think of themselves as the "fourth Estate" and believe they have a special right to power. And as liberals they want not an America ascendant but a world as one. They are doing exactly what the ancient king Nimrod did when he constructed his tower to Heaven at Babel.

Which is why these clowns sound like babbeling idiots.
