  • The court rejected Trump's bid to end birthright citizenship, with two of his own appointees — Amy Coney Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh — joining the majority in upholding the 14th Amendment.
  • The Supreme Court also struck down Trump's tariffs as unlawfully imposed, triggering more than $81 billion in refunds and prompting economists to argue the policy ultimately backfired.
  • Trump has repeatedly blasted justices who ruled against his tariff policy, branding them "unpatriotic," "disloyal" and "a disgrace to our nation."
