On Friday, President Donald Trump's agenda suffered a major setback after seven Supreme Court justices ruled his administration wasn't giving immigrants proper due process rights under the Constitution. That group of seven notably included all three justices Trump appointed to the Court during his first term.

Trump himself reacted to the news by slamming the Court save for the two justices who dissented (Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas) in a Truth Social post. He notably lamented that giving due process to immigrants facing deportation would require time and resources.

"The Supreme Court has just ruled that the worst murderers, drug dealers, gang members, and even those who are mentally insane, who came into our Country illegally, are not allowed to be forced out without going through a long, protracted, and expensive Legal Process, one that will take, possibly, many years for each person, and one that will allow these people to commit many crimes before they even see the inside of a Courthouse," Trump wrote. "The Supreme Court of the United States is not allowing me to do what I was elected to do."

MAGA attorney Mike Davis (who clerked for Trump-appointed Justice Neil Gorsuch) also slammed the decision in a post to his X account, asserting that Trump is "allowed to protect American citizens from terrorists," adding: "Judicial sabotage is out of control." Popular MAGA account "Catturd" derisively referred to Trump-appointed Justice Amy Coney Barrett as "Amy Commie Barrett."

Many of Trump's supporters argued that he should openly defy the Supreme Court, including far-right influencer Matt Walsh who wrote: "Nice of the Supreme Court to give their personal opinions about whether we can deport illegal aliens. Really interesting stuff. Thanks, guys. Anyway let’s get back to deporting illegal aliens."

"Sorry guys, seven people voted and now we can't have a country," MAGA podcaster Wade Stotts tweeted in response to the news.

"Do they have the power to control military operations now, too?" Pro-Trump pundit Mike Cernovich sarcastically tweeted.
