## Resource

Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis discusses the legislative impact of a major tax cut package and her profound experience visiting the Oval Office on the Fourth of July. The conversation shifts toward a debate on birthright citizenship, where the participants explore potential legal avenues for Congress to redefine who is considered subject to U.S. jurisdiction under the 14th Amendment. A significant portion of the dialogue is dedicated to contrasting the patriotism of the current President with the rhetoric of the New York City Mayor, whom the speakers criticize for demeaning American history.
