A federal judge on Thursday ruled that Hoda Muthana, a 25-year-old woman born in New Jersey who joined ISIS in 2014, is not a US citizen.
Judge Reggie B. Walton of the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia dismissed a lawsuit brought forward by Muthana's family in the hopes of retrieving her and her 2-year-old son from a refugee camp in Syria.
The lawsuit, filed in February, sought to have Muthana recognized as a US citizen so that she and her son could be returned to the US. Muthana was born in Hackensack, New Jersey, and was living with her family in Birmingham, Alabama, before she made the decision to head to Syria in 2014 to join the Islamic State.
The Department of Justice said in March that Muthana "is not and has never been a US citizen." The department said in its filing that Muthana's father was a former Yemeni diplomat at the time of her birth, and was therefore under the diplomatic protection of his home country. For this reason, it said, Muthana did not obtain US citizenship by birth.
Muthana's lawyer disputed that assertion and showed Insider a letter from the United Nations that he said shows that Muthana's father's diplomatic status ended a month before Muthana's birth. Muthana's lawyers have said that he was under the impression that Muthana was considered to be a citizen by the US government because she was issued a passport, according to The New York Times.
On Thursday, Walton said there was sufficient evidence indicating that Muthana was born while her father held diplomatic status in the US.

What is she holding? A bomb belt? A terrorist hatchling?
...and dear daddy cannot give her aid. Nice.
Not only is not everyone born here a citizen, not everyone born here that is a citizen is a natural born citizen.
Natural born citizens are NATURALLY citizens because they cannot be anything else.
Anyone born with more than ONE nationality is NOT a natural born citizen.
The children of foreigners born with divided citizenship, loyalty and allegiance were precisely who the founders were excluding with the natural born citizen clause.
Non-citzenship was determined by Obama Administration. Here a pdf of the letter they sent her in early 2016:

Don’t you just love that angelic pose...
This is a woman who wanted Americans dead.
She joined a terrorist organization whose members carry AK-47s and aim them at US Troops. They prance in the streets celebration our casualties screaming death to Americans.
This appealed to her, so she went scampering off to join them.
Enjoy your new home. It sucks to be you doesn’t it.
Excellent link. This was established long ago and we are only hearing about it now (and not from CNN). I can it without sarcasm this time. Thanks Obama.
Why is her family still in the country? Ship ‘em all back.
Maybe...but maybe she smelled so bad that the judge just wanted to make sure she left the court and never came back!
I hope she lives a long life and suffers greatly throughout it.
Sounds like the name of an LA rapper ... or a Scandinavian heavy metal band. I'm just not sure which. :-P
That girls been passed around more than a Waffle House ashtray!
Because she isn’t
Crap headline from a crap news outlet

She is not an American and the courts are
