CNN’s Scott Jennings ripped a liberal apart by using her own words against her when discussing Donald Trump’s new bombshell Supreme Court ruling. 

Jennings, who is playfully called the rebel of the liberal network, had a conversation with host Abby Phillip on CNN’s Saturday Morning Table for Five. They discussed his thoughts on a recent ruling regarding birthright citizenship.

The court ruled 6-3 in favor of Trump to end the practice of stalling his Executive Orders and agenda. 

The ruling allows Trump’s executive order halting birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants to take effect in states and jurisdictions that did not directly challenge his action in court. It could mean citizenship rules vary from state to state, pending ongoing litigation.

While all six conservative justices – including the three he appointed – sided with the president, three people dissented the historic ruling, including Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan. 

In response, Jennings, a Daily Mail columnist, turned to a statement Kagan made in 2022 at a Northwestern University law school discussion when former President Joe Biden was in the White House.

‘I was trying to sort out my feelings on this matter, and I came up with a quote from a very smart lawyer, and I just want to quote it, because I think she was right when she said it,’ he quipped. 

‘It just can’t be right that one district judge can stop a nationwide policy in its tracks,’ Jennings said, adding that Kagan said that when a Democrat was in power.

‘Now she voted against the decision on Friday. Just goes to show you that some of these folks really are hacks.’

After Phillip spoke of the nationwide injunction being ‘sort of the bane of existence of Democrat and Republican presidents,’ she asked Jennings to weigh in on the landmark ruling. 

‘Yeah, they finally have done something about it. Friday was a great day for Donald Trump – the market ended at all-time highs, he’s breaking peace agreements in the Oval Office on Friday afternoon, and the court really clears the way for him to enact the agenda on which he ran,’ Jennings replied. 

He then continued to slam Kagan, telling Phillips: ‘But as you correctly said, this has been the bane of the existence of president’s and I’m glad they went ahead and fixed it. 

‘Because it’s not right that one of these individual district court judges can act like a king or a monarch and stop the elected president from acting,’ Jennings continued as some of his colleagues laughed.  

Phillip then challenged Jennings a bit and said the ‘hackery’ he spoke of ‘is definitely bipartisan.’ 

She went on to mention a time when Republicans, including Stephen Miller, Trump’s chief of staff, praised a universal injunction on abortion that was issued by a conservative judge in Texas. 

When the decision was made Friday, a fiery dispute broke out between two of America’s most powerful judges.

‘Now she voted against the decision on Friday. Just goes to show you that some of these folks really are hacks,’ Jennings said of Kagan. 

The justices’ secret personal feuds have seemingly become so fraught that they are counting down the days until the SCOTUS summer recess – which will be a welcome respite from both work and colleagues, according to Chief Justice John Roberts.

This week, the court’s liberal wing erupted in spectacular fashion against the six-judge conservative alliance during the biggest ruling of the year thus far.

Trump appointee Justice Amy Coney Barrett, 53, ripped into liberal dissenter Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s arguments in her 6-3 majority opinion in a major birthright citizenship case.

Writing for the conservative majority of the court, Barrett hit back at both Jackson and fellow Justice Sonia Sotomayor who dissented.

Barrett’s scorched earth reply took aim at Jackson mostly, spending 900 words to repeatedly rip into the Biden appointee and the court’s most junior member.

Jackson went on to describe the decision as an ‘existential threat to the rule of law.’

Speaking at the White House after his victory, Trump said: ‘This was a big one. Amazing decision, one we’re very happy about. This really brings back the Constitution. This is what it’s all about.’

Basking in his victory during an impromptu appearance in the White House briefing room, the president vowed to push through ‘many’ more of his policies after the court win, including curbs to birthright citizenship.

The president said he would ‘promptly file’ to advance policies that have previously been blocked by judges.

Attorney General Pam Bondi said the ruling meant ‘not one district court judge can think they’re an emperor over this administration and his executive powers, and why the people of the United States elected him.’
