'Catastrophic': Supreme Court justice's alliance with Trump alarms political operative

A political operative sounded the alarm on a Supreme Court justice whom he believes is President Donald Trump's chief enabler.During an episode of Court of History, journalist and former senior Clinton White House advisor Sidney Blumenthal explained the thinking behind a recent article he wrote for The Guardian about Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh."When you look beneath the surface, and you see certain dissents and statements and opinions, you find that Kavanaugh is playing an instrumental key role on Trump's key issues," Blumenthal said. "And he's really the most politically attuned, the one who is acting most like a political operative, and the results are catastrophic."Blumenthal said that Kavanaugh has aligned himself with Trump's agenda when it comes to immigration, birthright citizenship and "damaging" tariffs.He pointed to Kavanaugh's concurrence that let immigration agents stop people based on factors including ethnic appearance, speaking Spanish, and working certain jobs, which Kavanaugh called "a relevant factor" and "common sense." The tactics later became known as "Kavanaugh stops," Blumenthal noted.When Trump appealed a decision that blocked his tariffs, the Supreme Court sided with a lower court decision that called Trump's claims "unconstitutional," Blumenthal said. "Kavanaugh, however, said, Well, not only is it not unconstitutional, let me suggest certain laws and other kinds of citations of tariffs that you could cite" to get around laws stopping Trump's tariffs."He was playing the staffer to Trump," Blumenthal said. "And then Trump attacked the majority on the court as fools and dogs. But then he said, 'Kavanaugh, I'm so proud of him.'"Blumenthal then pointed to Kavanaugh's "masterpiece of errors, factual revisionism and sophistry" on birthright citizenship, saying the justice built his case on speculation about what the framers of the 14th Amendment would have wanted."This is mind reading in a time machine about a non-existent legal category projected forward," Blumenthal said. "This is a fantastical fiction."

'Are you serious?': MAGA pundit baffles with head-spinning attack on Trump foe

A MAGA commentator turned an entire table full of pundits against him for his attack on a foe of President Donald Trump.Terry Schilling went after columnist E. Jean Carroll while debating Trump's request for the Supreme Court to hear his case to overturn her defamation victory. Carroll won an $83.3 million suit against Trump and a federal appeal after Trump attacked her for claiming he sexually assaulted her.Schilling defended Trump by calling Carroll's suit "lawfare," saying, "No other president has had this type of lawfare thrown against them."However, the CNN panel around him quickly cast doubt on how he was using the term "lawfare." Democratic strategist Isaiah Martin asked, "What are you talking about?" and questioned, "lawfare? Are you serious?" Lawyer Marc LoPresti told Schilling that what he was saying "does not make sense."The panel's host, Phillip, had to ask the panel to stop talking, repeating "hold on, hold on," as everyone piled on Schilling. She told Schilling he was misusing the term."My understanding of lawfare is this idea that it's the law, that is, the institution of government weaponizing the rule of law," Phillip explained. "This is a person who has an allegation against the president."Schilling shifted to challenging Carroll's claims of sexual assault against Trump, saying, "I find E. Jean Carroll's claims to be crazy. I think she's kind of crazy."Martin spoke up again, responding, "That's not what we're discussing.""You might find it to be that," Phillip said. "But a jury didn't."

'Really?': CNN panel wipes smirk off MAGA pundit's face after defending Trump crackdown

A CNN panel cornered a MAGA commentator as he insisted "plenty of evidence" supports an aggressive Trump policy.The panel, hosted by CNN anchor Abby Phillip, was talking about President Donald Trump's crackdown on immigrants and plans to expand operations to deport Haitian migrants."This is one of the areas where President Trump is doing strongest, and Republicans are doing strongest on crime," right-wing pundit Terry Schilling said."We're not talking about criminals here," Phillip said. "We're talking about people who are not criminals, actually."Phillip added that "there's no evidence by any stretch of the imagination" to suggest that Haitian migrants targeted by Trump's crackdown are criminals. Democratic strategist Christine Quinn agreed, saying, "There's no evidence that there is a significant number, if any, of the Haitians who are here on TPS" being "the worst of the worst."Schilling, keeping a smile on his face, responded simply by saying, "There is plenty of evidence that there is crime related to all of this.""Really?" multiple commentators, including Quinn, reacted. "Where's the evidence?""Terry, where's the evidence?" Phillip said."Where's the evidence?" Quinn repeated.Schilling said that plenty of evidence shows "so much stress on our system," but Phillip said, "You just switched from crime" to talking about stress on the system."No, because it's all tied," Schilling said. "You can't say that immigration does not impact all these other sectors.""All I'm saying is, where's the proof?" Phillip said.Schilling's smile disappeared as he tried to shake off the demand. "I don't think this is really up for debate," Schilling said. Quinn could then be heard laughing."It's very much up for debate," Phillip shot back.

Trump appears to fall asleep during late Sen. Lindsey Graham's funeral

President Donald Trump appeared to doze off during his late friend, Sen. Lindsey Graham's (R-SC) funeral Tuesday at Washington National Cathedral. Social media users quickly noted Trump's closed eyes and drooping face after delivering a eulogy for his former Republican ally. Journalist Aaron Rupar captured the moment and wrote, "Trump, face drooping heavily, is struggling to stay awake at Lindsey Graham's memorial service."Political commentator Jo speculated on X, "We are five months out from him faceplanting for all the world to see."Progressive account Sundae Divine posted, "Trump’s tribute was observing a brief moment of unconsciousness."Political scientist David Darmofal expressed concern, "Like I said before, it was remarkable to me how tired he was for an event in the afternoon. It's even more remarkable that the legacy media have no interest in what's going on with his health."Watch the video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.
