Summary
A third federal judge, Joseph N. Laplante, blocked Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants.
His ruling follows similar decisions from judges in Seattle and Maryland.
The lawsuits, led by the ACLU, argue Trump’s order violates the 14th Amendment, which grants citizenship to nearly all born on U.S. soil.
The Trump administration contends such children are not “subject to the jurisdiction” of the U.S. Legal battles continue, with appeals underway and further rulings expected in other courts.
Well then by that logic all illegal immigrants arent under any US jurisdiction. Therefore they can break no laws and are legally here
Honestly that is the original meaning of the word “outlaw”; iIt literally meant someone who was outside the law. Today we most use it as a synonym for “criminal” or “law breaker” but at the time the Constitution was written or at the time the 14th Amendment was ratified most people would have understood it with its original meaning.
“Outlaws” were neither subject to nor protected by the law. They had no legal status nor standing in the law.

English Common Law had the “writ of outlawry” and the subject was deprived of all legal rights, being outside the “law”, but others could kill him on sight as if he were a wolf or other wild animal.
There’s a pretty good Wikipedia Article for this.
You couldn’t do this, English (and much of European) law required a trial
I think he means in pre modern times. Not the current era.
Yeah I was talking about medieval to 19th century
Obviously you don’t need to put an animal on trial for murder anymore
