Your daily reminder that quite literally everyone is scamming Americans:
When the Civil War ended and we adopted the 14th Amendment to make children of slaves automatic citizens, we also apparently wanted scammers from North Africa to send pregnant ladies across the ocean to birth new Americans. It only makes sense.
But, at least in this case, the fraud was caught.
Here are the latest details from the State Department on this newest birth tourism scam and the fraud being perpetrated out of Africa:
Of course, if you come legally from India on an H-1B or F1 visa, or if you illegally jump the border and give birth in El Paso, then your children are still as American as apple pie.
But at least the most obvious fraudsters are being stopped. We are now doing the BARE MINIMUM, so that's good.
Here's more from the Daily Wire:
A U.S. embassy in Europe found that more than 400 suspected birth tourism cases had occurred since 2024. In this case, investigators traced the birth tourism to at least six companies that were coaching applicants on what to say in their visa interviews, arranging housing, and setting up delivery plans. State again shut down the process, revoked the visas, and permanently banned 'several fraudsters from traveling to the United States ever again.'
An embassy in North Africa revoked more than 100 visas for 'birth tourist' parents who came to the United States specifically to give birth to children who would get U.S. citizenship. State Department consular officers worked with law enforcement and used data analytics to identify the networks abusing the visa system in this case.
We're just scratching the surface on the birth tourism scams.
SCOTUS, please overturn birthright citizenship so we still have a country in 50 years.
