On June 30, 2026, legal expert Ilya Somin conducted two television interviews regarding the Supreme Court's ruling on birthright citizenship. The first interview was a detailed appearance on C-SPAN's Washington Journal, lasting over an hour. Joined by Zach Shemtob of SCOTUSblog, the discussion began 15-20 minutes before the Court started issuing decisions and covered various issues in the cases, including birthright citizenship, transgender athlete policies, and First Amendment campaign finance matters.

Additionally, Somin gave a shorter interview focused almost entirely on the birthright citizenship case for Fox 10 TV in Phoenix, Arizona. Videos of both interviews were made available, though embedding the C-SPAN video in the original post was not possible.

These interviews provided insight into the Supreme Court's decisions and allowed for public engagement through caller questions on the related cases.
