Not true, you do need some ID to prove that. Just loudly saying "I'm an American citizen and have a right to enter" to the CBP officer isn't going to cut it. That is the easiest ground for entry refusal .
Once you provide your proof of ID as an American citizen, you then have the absolute right to enter US.
