U.S. CONGRESS IN TOTAL CHAOS: Senator Kennedy just dropped the “Born in America Act”; an absolute BAN on naturalized citizens and dual nationals holding top offices! Even “a hint of foreign loyalty” and you’re OUT instantly, potentially kicking 14 current lawmakers to the curb.
Democrats scream “death to diversity,” Republicans roar “America First.” The 2026 midterms are about to become a constitutional bloodbath! Who’s getting axed? Full shocking details below
Washington, D.C. – December 5, 2025, 2:47 p.m. EST The marble corridors of the Russell Senate Office Building still smell like gunpowder.
At exactly 2:31 p.m., during what was supposed to be a sleepy post-Thanksgiving session on agricultural subsidies, Senator John Neely Kennedy (R-LA) stood up, adjusted his glasses, and detonated the political equivalent of a tactical nuke.
He didn’t ask for recognition. He didn’t clear his throat. He simply began reading the title of his new amendment in that slow Louisiana drawl that somehow makes everything sound both folksy and apocalyptic:
“The Born in America Act. A bill to ensure that only natural-born citizens of the United States, with no foreign citizenship, past or present, and no parental foreign citizenship at birth, may serve in the offices of President, Vice President, Senator, Representative, federal judge, or any Cabinet-level position.”
Then he dropped the hammer.

“Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to immediate consideration.”
Dead silence for four full seconds. Then all hell broke loose.
Democratic senators began shouting before the chair could even rule.
Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA), himself born in Los Angeles to Mexican immigrant parents, was on his feet screaming, “This is ethnic cleansing with a tie!” Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), who lost both legs in Iraq, called it “the most disgusting attack on American service members since the Alien and Sedition Acts.” Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI), a naturalized citizen from Japan, simply stared at Kennedy and said, “You just declared war on the American Dream.”
But the real shock came when the parliamentarian confirmed: under Senate rules, Kennedy’s amendment had been filed correctly as a rider to the must-pass Defense Appropriations bill. It cannot be filibustered. It only needs 51 votes.
And right now, every Republican senator in the room was grinning like it was Christmas morning.
### The Kill List That Everyone Is Whispering About
Within 30 minutes, the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service had already circulated a preliminary list of current officeholders who would be immediately disqualified if the amendment becomes law:
1. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) – naturalized Thai citizenship at birth (mother) 2. Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) – naturalized from Japan 3. Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) – parents Mexican citizens at his birth 4. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) – naturalized from Somalia 5. Rep.
Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) – naturalized from India 6. Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) – born in New Delhi 7. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg – Maltese citizenship through father until age 18 8. Eight additional House Democrats and one moderate Republican (name redacted pending confirmation) whose parents retained foreign passports
That’s 14 current officeholders who could be removed by a single vote, some before the 2026 midterms even begin.
The Constitutional Bloodbath Already in Motion

Legal scholars are calling it the fastest-track constitutional crisis since the 14th Amendment showdowns of 1866.
Harvard’s Laurence Tribe tweeted at 3:12 p.m.: “If this passes, it will be struck down 9-0 within 48 hours of enactment. But the damage to democratic norms will be irreversible.”
Yet the MAGA base is treating it like the Second Coming. Truth Social exploded with memes of Kennedy riding a bald eagle captioned “FINALLY.” Donald Trump himself posted at 3:27 p.m.: “Senator Kennedy just did what nobody had the guts to do. AMERICA FIRST means BORN HERE FIRST. Great bill!”
### The Six Words That Started the Riot
As Democrats tried to force a quorum call to shut the session down, Kennedy leaned into his microphone and delivered the line now looping on every cable channel:
“If you love another country more than this one, even a little bit, we don’t need you making our laws.”
The chamber erupted. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) had to be physically restrained by his own staff. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), born in Calgary, Canada, to a Cuban father, was seen quietly slipping out a side door; his office has gone radio silent.
### Where We Stand Right Now (8:00 p.m. EST)
– The amendment is scheduled for a vote tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. – Vice President-elect JD Vance has already signaled he will break any 50-50 tie in favor. – The House Freedom Caucus has promised to attach the exact same language to every spending bill for the next two years.
– The Supreme Court has canceled oral arguments scheduled for next week “due to unforeseen national emergency.”

Legal betting markets now have the Born in America Act at 68 % chance of passing at least one chamber before Christmas.
### The Names on the Chopping Block Tonight
While the full list is still being verified, the following members have already retained constitutional lawyers:
– Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) – mother born in Poland during Holocaust – Rep.
Tom Suozzi (D-NY) – Italian dual citizenship until 2023 – And in the most ironic twist: Senator Ted Cruz himself, who renounced Canadian citizenship in 2014 but whose eligibility would be retroactively questioned under the amendment’s “parental foreign citizenship at birth” clause.
Washington has not seen chaos like this since January 6. Only this time, the weapon isn’t a flagpole.
It’s the 14th Amendment, and it’s bleeding on the Senate floor.
More as this constitutional earthquake continues to unfold.
