Assessments
evidence-backed verdictsThese are sourced verdicts from fact-checkers or community evidence reviews — not opinions.
Trump signed Executive Order 14160 on January 20, 2025 — Day One of his second term — declaring that citizenship does not automatically extend to U.S.-born children of unlawfully present mothers, which is the specific act this promise named. Federal courts enjoined the order before its effective date, it never operated, and the Supreme Court struck it down 6-3 on June 30, 2026 (Trump v. Barbara). Rated on the promise as stated — signing that executive order on Day One — which was completely fulfilled; the underlying policy never took effect and is now definitively invalidated.
