Trump says birthright citizenship is over. The Supreme Court will decide. YouTube video by NPR

Supporters of President Trump like Sen. Ted Cruz say birthright citizenship is "stupid" because "it incentivizes illegal immigration." The @aclu.org counters that the 14th Amendment framers deliberately guaranteed birthright citizenship for anyone born in the USA. youtu.be/4QczkEbU8jA

Infiltrating the Supreme Court A roundtable conversation with top Supreme Court reporters on secrecy at the court, the justices’ ethics and how they do their job at a crucial moment.

Except when war breaks out, #SCOTUS is the hottest beat in town. Discussing it with NYT's @jodikantor.bsky.social, WSJ's James Romoser, and Politico's @joshgerstein.bsky.social tein.bsky.social and Ankush Khardori was really fun. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Supreme Court wrestles with gun rights, marijuana, and the right to own a gun The argument took place in light of the court's 2022 Bruen decision, which held that for a gun law to be constitutional, it must be analogous to a similar law at the nation's founding in the late 1700...

In test case over whether marijuana users can legally possess guns, #SCOTUS J. Gorsuch reminds that founding fathers Adams & Jefferson drank way more than was good for them. www.npr.org/2026/03/02/n...

Trump excoriates Supreme Court justices after tariff loss The battle over the tariffs began on day one of the president's second term when he signed an executive order that let him impose a wide range of tariffs on virtually every U.S. trading partner.

President Trump blasts three #SCOTUS conservatives who voted against his tariffs, but praises dissenter Justice Kavanaugh as "genius.”

AI brings Supreme Court decisions to life Like it or not, the justices are about to see AI versions of themselves, speaking words that they spoke in court but that were not heard contemporaneously by anyone except those in the courtroom.

AI meets #SCOTUS.  Not sure the 9 will like it.

Supreme Court doubtful of Trump claim he can fire Fed governors by fiat The Trump administration wants the authority to fire Lisa Cook, a Federal Reserve governor. Experts say that would undermine the independence of the central bank.

It's showdown time for the Fed's independence at the Supreme Court At issue are President Trump's efforts to break with 112 years of law and precedent by firing Lisa Cook, a member of the Federal Reserve's governing board.

Every living @federalreserve.gov board chair — aside from Jerome Powell — as well as treasury secretaries and prominent economists from both parties have signed on to Supreme Court briefs urging the justices not to tinker with the Fed’s independence. www.npr.org/2026/01/21/n...

Supreme Court appears likely to uphold state bans on transgender athletes To date, 27 states have enacted laws barring transgender participation in sports.

#SCOTUS seems inclined to allow states to bar transgender girls from sports at publicly funded schools, but the ramifications for transgender people are less clear. @aclu.org www.npr.org/2026/01/13/n...

Transgender participation in sports debated today @SCOTUS. 27 states have enacted laws banning it, contending it gives an unfair advantage to trans girls. For prominent athletes, its personal, with big time female sports figures on both sides. @aclu.org www.npr.org/2026/01/12/n...

Now #SCOTUS hears a challenge to laws in 27 states that ban transgender participation in sports. @aclu.org www.npr.org/2026/01/12/n...

The rhetoric around transgender participation in school sports proved very popular for Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign, putting Dems on Defense, with 15,000 ads.

Today @SCOTUS, the state defends its trans ban, arguing that biological differences “matter on the field,” giving trans girls an unfair advantage.

Transgender participation in school sports is very rare. Indeed the girl known as BPJ is apparently the only trans girl in West Virginia who has participated in middle and high school sports. @aclu.org www.npr.org/2026/01/12/n...

Supreme Court allows Trump to prohibit gender election on passports The court's decision is not a final ruling, however; it just permits Trump's passport policy to go into effect while litigation continues in the lower courts.

In another #Trump admin shadow docket win, #SCOTUS majority says "Displaying passport holders' sex at birth no more offends equal protection principles than displaying their country of birth"

Supreme Court justices appear skeptical of Trump's tariff arguments At issue is whether the president can bypass Congress and impose tariffs by citing national security.

#SCOTUS appears skeptical of Trump tariff arguments, but Trump maintains that if he loses the tariff case, “Our country will be destroyed, and our military would be instantly obliterated.”
