Overview
On April 22, 2026, President Donald Trump called Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson "that new, Low IQ person" in a Truth Social tirade criticizing the Supreme Court, according to his posts.
Trump's attack came as the court considers his bid to end birthright citizenship after he attended the April 1 oral arguments in that case, according to the sources.
During the April 1 hearing, conservative justices Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch appeared skeptical of the administration's arguments, according to the reporting.
Earlier this year the Court blocked his tariffs 6-3, prompting a refund portal and requiring roughly $159 to $160 billion in refunds to about 300,000 importers, according to the sources.
The Court is expected to issue decisions soon on birthright citizenship and other major cases, including the Voting Rights Act and presidential authority over independent agencies, according to the reporting.
