Trump may already be deporting newborn Americans while the Supreme Court dawdles on birthright citizenship:
pregnant teenagers in immigration detention having been giving birth to U.S. citizens
but those girls and their babies are now missing

Observers saw ICE agents detain a man attending a scheduled immigration court hearing in NYC yesterday, in defiance of a judge's court order blocking most arrests inside the city's three immigration courthouses. The man has since been released and is reunited with his family, observers said.
The judge's order forbids ICE from arresting immigrants inside courts at 26 Federal Plaza, 201 Varick Street and 290 Broadway unless there's a public safety or national security reason. But they're stalking the halls anyway and still making arrests.
BREAKING MS NOW:
ICE has detained over 500 babies and toddlers under Trump.
On an average day, ICE has 25 children aged 3 or younger in custody, according to joint research by MS NOW and The Marshall Project.
They detained someone the very next day after the judge's order dropped, saying "we don't care."
The Trump administration is refusing to answer questions about the health and safety of undocumented young mothers—and their newborn U.S. citizens—in its custody.

What people need to understand is that this is solely in response to an executive order. No law or regulation has changed. If Trump writes another executive order targeting adults tomorrow, trans people cannot trust that our state and local governments will fight for us when they won't for youth.
