Fake birth certificates have allowed Manchurian candidates to gain access to positions of power that they were not entitled to and others to inherit fortunes that were not theirs
Births were recorded for administrative purposes, i.e., population tracking and inheritance rights, as far back as Egypt and Rome, and in Mesopotamia. In ancient Egypt, for example, births were found documented on papyrus as far back as 3000 B.C.
In medieval times, the church kept records of births for property, for inheritance rights, to prove that one exists, and such births were legitimate.
During the 19th century states began to directly administer the civil records, thus ending the need for a church to keep accurate records.
United Kingdom had compulsory birth records in 1853. The United States began oversight of birth records in 1902 when the Act of Congress established the Bureau of Census. By 1919 all U.S. states kept birth records which became standardized in the 1930s.
Today, a real birth certificate provides proof of identity, citizenship, and legal rights. Social services and healthcare can be accessed with a birth certificate.
Millions of people around the world lack birth certificates and thus cannot be properly vetted as to who they are, where they were born, who their parents were, and what kind of crimes they have committed in the countries where they were born.
Birth certificates have been stolen or forged to hide someone’s true identity, and to use someone else’s identity to commit bank fraud (commercial and personal loans), real estate fraud, inheritance fraud, and other uses such as government benefits, citizenship, and other political gains.
As a volunteer translator, I have seen my share of fake birth certificates, copies of someone else’s identity presented as their own, to obtain a legal state I.D. and/or driver’s license at the local DMV.
It is true that citizens coming from less developed nations or countries torn by civil strife and wars have a much harder time obtaining their birth records or any records at all. Such people cannot be properly vetted and brought into our country as they pose an elevated risk of admitting criminals into our country and taking advantage of our tolerant laws, generous welfare, and legal system.
People born in the U.S. have had their U.S. citizen identities stolen, especially now that AI makes it much easier. Their financial information has been exploited via social security numbers and birth dates; credit cards were stolen and their information sold to other criminals.
In addition to birth certificate fraud, domestic and foreign terrorists have used confidential information to obtain fraudulent employment, asylum, marriage fraud, common types of benefit fraud which allow people to enter or reside in the United States.
Unvetted illegals were brought in by the Democrat government under President Obama and President Biden and inserted into conservative neighborhoods around the country because they made convenient Democrat voters which flipped the voting block at all levels of government to Democrat.
The most glaring and recent example of theft on a large scale is the grand financial fraud in Minnesota of the Somali community which elected Ilhan Omar U.S. Representative, a none too grateful woman who constantly criticizes and trashes America who has been so generous to her.
The Somali stronghold stole billions of dollars with fake day care facilities for children and adults. None of these have any children enrolled. Millions of dollars are alleged to have poured out of the Minneapolis airport each day for two years, sent directly to Somalia and none of it has raised eyebrows.
It has been alleged that Ilhan Omar has changed her official birthdate to coincide with the story she told previously about her becoming a U.S. citizen, making the point that original birth certificates are important. (Daily Mail, Jan 13, 2026)
Fake birth certificates have allowed Manchurian candidates to gain access to positions of power that they were not entitled to and others to inherit fortunes that were not theirs. Other issues involved countries where people did not register their children’s births or waited too long to do so. War criminals, who lived the lives of good citizens after wars, were eventually caught when their “lost” birth certificates or other documents have resurfaced.
