Sources on the first paragraph? I can’t tell what you’re even trying at say.

DACA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deferred_Action_for_Childhood_...) was an exec order specifically because those individuals were brought over (as children, with no agency over their fate) after they were born, not before, so of course they weren’t citizens via the 14th. You’re correct that It wasn’t a law passed by Congress, but it’s irrelevant. I’m not sure what you’re saying, talking anything about DACA in this context is irrelevant.

14th Amendment: 'wherein they reside', residency is a legal state indicating an immigration process per the law has been followed.

And though your point about not having agency is significant, the law and the Constitution says DACA recipients should have been deported. We allowed a rogue President to override that.
