While I agree that official “legal immigration” came later; the Parents were still here legally. They were allowed to be here via Burlingame treaty and were legally domiciled in the US. In modern day context basically a “work visa”. Even if we concede they were simply here and that legal immigration came later, then fine; they were just “here”. But they certainly weren’t here ILLEGALLY.
Where does WKA impute any of this reasoning to the determination?

Thus WKA isn’t relevant
If you ignore the literal textualism used to come to reach the decision and just make shite up, sure.

We’re specifically talking about the children of parents who broke laws to be here and are currently here illegally. Unlike WKA.
Which of the 3 exceptions would they fall under?

It’s literally the single most important decision to saving the future of this country.
Illegals are in violation of our laws by the nature of their entry. They are not fully subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, but rather are the citizens of their native lands. Illegal aliens are "foreigners" who cannot be called to jury duty or drafted into the U.S. military services. When these foreigners encounter adverse circumstances they are able to appeal to the consulates of their native countries for legal and financial assistance and regularly do so. Babies born to these foreigners are not citizens of the U.S.A. but rather of the nations of their parents. Those who are present in our country legally, eg if they are exclusively under the jurisdiction of the Constitution and US law, would, by the 14th Amendment, have their babies given US citizenship.
"Over a century ago, the Supreme Court appropriately confirmed this restricted interpretation of citizenship in the so-called "Slaughter-House cases" [83 US 36 (1873) and 112 US 94 (1884).
In the 1884 Elk v. Wilkins case, the 14th Amendment phrase "subject to its jurisdiction" was interpreted to exclude "children of ministers, consuls, and citizens of foreign states born within the United States."
In Elk, the American Indian claimant was considered not an American citizen because the law required him to be "not merely subject in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction and owing them direct and immediate allegiance." ? ?The citizenship question of American Indians was addressed and altered in the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924.
"The Court essentially stated that the status of the parents determines the citizenship of the child. To qualify children for birthright citizenship, based on the 14th Amendment, parents must owe "direct and immediate allegiance" to the U.S. and be "completely subject" to its jurisdiction with no foreign allegiance whatsoever. In other words, they must be United States citizens."
Many in quoting the 14th amendment conveniently forget to include the words "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof". Their disingenuity reveals that they are concerned about the effect of these few words on their contention. Granting citizenship to those born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents is a deliberate act of defiance of the law and may actually be treasonous.

SFP ignoring facts and logic; and continually citing Wong Kim Ark, incorrectly and out of context is one my favorite things.
It’s like watching a toddler using a word incorrectly……..over and over and over again.
At some point we stop correcting and just laugh.

Sometimes you are just a disingenuous prick because you did not quote what I actually said and you do it quite often which is why nobody believes you or respects you
And, in typical fashion, you never addressed The app or hypothetical with a war prisoner giving birth giving the child, according to you, citizenship

Me and basically every court for 130 years.
I notice you didn't even answer the question presented, either.

No I quoted what you said.
You just tried to preemptively crawfish, so I focused on the actual argument and ignored the preemptive crawfishing.

That was just because I left, but your hypo makes no sense, so it's not shocking that the Founders and author of the 14A didn't think of it.
Your hypo is that of an 8-9 month pregnant female military combatant who is part of an invasion of the United States, that somehow makes it here and occupies no territory and is permitted to remain on our soil prior to her birth.
So congrats on finding the most insane scenario ever that a bunch of men in the mid-1800s couldn't imagine.

So which is your preferred method of judicial/statutory interpretation?

Why would I answer a question about exceptions to a situation to which WKA doesn’t apply?
I also wont answer how Plessy relates to our current Tariff situation. Because it’s, ya know, …..irrelevant. You asking a dumb question isn’t a gotcha; it’s simply a dumb question.
But by all means; keep up the tired WKA arguments, which everyone who can read realize are out of context.

You're declaring victory and avoiding having your declaration tested. That's why.

And you can't explain how this argument is, you know, correct.
You would think that with all of their historical analysis and the 3 exceptions they discussed in detail, they would have referenced the Burlingame treaty at least once, if that had any bearing on their analysis.
Why did they forget such an important 4th exception, if it was so clear?
