Members compared Zionists to racists and fascists. The chair of the union’s board said, “I f—ing hate this university.”

Dear Justice Roberts: The ‘Same Constitution’ Would Never Authorize Anchor Babies
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts’ “same Constitution” line during Wednesday’s oral arguments over birthright citizenship at first sounded like a defense of originalism. But in fact, it was the exact opposite. The high court heard oral arguments Wednesday in Trump v. Barbara, a case challenging the president’s 2025 executive order restricting birthright citizenship.

Foul-mouthed Democrat congresswoman doubles down on now-deleted profane tirade
Democrat Rep. Susie Lee of Nevada took to social media earlier this week to post an ill-tempered tirade filled with profanity.
Lee let out a flurry of F-words in response to an article detailing President Donald Trump’s plans to attend the Supreme Court’s oral arguments on a landmark birthright citizenship case. Notably, Lee’s profile banner on X brands her as “America’ #1 Most Bipartisan Member of Congress.”
‘Clearly my language touched a nerve.’
“So f**king f**ked up,” Lee said in a now-deleted post with a timestamp of 1:03 a.m. Wednesday. “I’ll pray they f**k him to his face. Sorry, I say f**k a lot these days.”
Rather than apologizing for her low impulse control, Lee doubled down and defended her incoherent rant, claiming Trump has violated the Constitution and its separation of powers.

“Clearly my language touched a nerve — my nerve was touched by the attacks on our Constitution and its separation of powers,” Lee said in a post later that morning. “I took an oath to protect and defend it.”
Administration officials and allies of the president mocked Lee’s lack of professionalism, insinuating she has a drinking problem that contributed to her lack of online inhibition.
Brandon Herrera, a Republican congressional candidate from Texas, piled on to the ratio on Lee’s childish follow-up post.
“I’m gonna need you to take an oath to stop swearing until you get good at it,” Herrera said in a post on X. “Currently you sound like a 9 year old trying to impress the older kids.”

Trump’s Tuchis Afn Tish Moment: ‘Go Get Your Own Oil!’
One of the refreshing things about President Trump is that his patience has its limits. America’s enemies have found that out the hard way—ask the late Ayatollah Khamenei or the now-former president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro. Some of our so-called allies are also hearing from the president.
