Panicked Trump, 79, Rages at Supreme Court in 1AM Meltdown

The Daily Beast nation

Key Points:

  • President Donald Trump criticized the Supreme Court in a late-night social media post, urging justices to reconsider birthright citizenship and suggesting they should have watched Fox News host Mark Levin’s show for guidance on the 14th Amendment.
  • The Supreme Court recently heard arguments on whether to end automatic citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants, a policy Trump attempted to change via executive order, but lower courts have struck down this challenge.
  • During the hearing, Chief Justice John Roberts emphasized that the Constitution remains relevant despite modern changes, and Justice Neil Gorsuch questioned the implications of birthright citizenship for Native Americans prior to the 1924 Indian Citizenship Act.
  • Trump attended the court hearing but left abruptly after the justices challenged his administration’s arguments, signaling skepticism from the conservative court, including Trump-appointed justices, about altering the citizenship clause.
  • Mark Levin, on his Fox News show, argued that the 14th Amendment was originally intended only to grant citizenship to freed Black slaves and their children, warning that a Supreme Court ruling on this issue could be seen as judicial activism with significant consequences.
