Clarence Thomas

Blacks were entitled to citizenship because they were Americans.

The Court has repurposed the Fourteenth Amendment to protect its own set of preferred rights … the Court does so again by recognizing a constitutional right to citizenship for the children of all foreign birth tourists and illegal aliens.

Border officers did not have the burden to establish by clear and convincing evidence that Lau had committed a crime involving moral turpitude.

This Court routinely declines to provide relief to law-abiding Americans when it would actually matter, even after lower courts conspicuously flout this Court's precedents in ruling against them.

It is unfortunate that the Court chose to intervene at the request of a convicted murderer to correct the Eleventh Circuit's inconsequential foot fault.

This Court declines to even hear Florida’s claims, even though it has nowhere else to bring them.

The State of Florida moved for leave to file a complaint against Washington and California for defying federal law by providing commercial driver’s licenses to illegal aliens who cannot read English.

This provision sweeps too broadly, interferes with the party-candidate relationship, and has not been proved necessary to combat corruption.

I am hopeful that this Court will soon realize that the conflict its §2 jurisprudence has sown with the Constitution is too severe to ignore.

For over three decades, I have called for 'a systematic reassessment of our interpretation of §2.'

These are the only cases argued this Term in which our jurisdiction is mandatory.

Congress requires this Court to exercise jurisdiction over constitutional challenges to congressional redistricting, and we accordingly have an obligation to resolve such challenges promptly.
