The U.S. Constitution requires that anyone running for President of the United States be a natural born citizen. Additionally, they must have been a resident of the U.S. for at least 14 years, and be at least 35 years old.
However, the same rule does not apply for members of Congress, as they are not required to have been born in the U.S.
To serve in the U.S. House of Representatives, a person simply must have been a U.S. citizen for at least 7 years and be at least 25 years old. To serve in the U.S. Senate, the person must have been a U.S. citizen for at least 9 years, and be at least 30 years old.
There are a number of foreign-born people serving in Congress. Some are Republicans, but the majority are Democrats. There are also many foreign-born state legislators, and several mayors.
Last week, Democrat Rep. Shri Thanedar of Michigan file articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. Thanedar, 70, was born in India, and did not even grow up in the United States. He came to the U.S. in 1979 to attend the University of Arkron in Ohio, became a U.S. citizen in 1988, and still speaks in very broken English. But he wants to impeach a duly-elected American president.
Shockingly, the U.S. Constitution does not specify that federal judges, including Supreme Court justices, be U.S. citizens. Therefore, in theory, a noncitizen could be appointed to these roles.
Many federal judges have ruled against President Trump, as Democrats attempt to thwart his agenda by filing lawsuit after lawsuit. Multiple judges blocking Trump’s executive orders have been foreign-born.
For example, U.S. District Judge Amir H. Ali, who is overseeing a lawsuit against the Trump administration over its decision to suspend foreign assistance, was born in Canada, and only obtained his U.S. citizenship in 2019. He was one of the last group of radical judges appointed by Joe Biden and confirmed by Senate Democrats just two months before Biden left office. Ali became the first Muslim and Arab American federal judge to serve in D.C.

Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin was literally born in Mexico. The judiciary is a hotbed of foreigners ruling tyrannically over the American people. https://t.co/Vr7vJjWwpM pic.twitter.com/JaCVgWcGuk

One-third of Washington, DC, judges were not born in the United States and have no experience prior to their appointment.

🧵This is Candian-born, Biden-appointed U.S. District Judge Amir Ali. He is forcing President Trump to extend foreign aid to American-hating NGOs and organizations. I’m drafting articles of impeachment against him. pic.twitter.com/ylElmNwdJT

Did you know that DC Judge Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali, the judge who ordered the Trump administration to temporarily lift the funding freeze on U.S. aid abroad has only been a US Citizen since 2019, and he’s a DUAL CITIZEN WITH CANADA?
Serious question.

LAWFARE: The DC federal court can effectively hijack the executive branch (as we are witnessing now), making it essential that its judges be our best and brightest. Yet 33% weren’t born in the US, and NONE had any prior judicial experience when they were appointed.. pic.twitter.com/7ubjqv4xM7
