Congresswoman unleashes profane rant against Trump over birthright citizenship challenge

U.S. Rep. Susie Lee of Nevada.

A U.S. congresswoman from Nevada unloaded a profane rant against President Donald Trump on Wednesday hours ahead of the Supreme Court hearing oral arguments against the president's executive order overturning birthright citizenship. The obscene tirade was a reaction to news that Trump would be attending the hearing in-person.

Trump on Wednesday became the first-ever sitting U.S. president to attend oral arguments made before the nation's top court. According to The New York Post, Trump stared down the justices from the front row inside the federal courtroom. Attorney General Pam Bondi was by his side.

Just the thought of this was too much for one congresswoman to take, however. When Susie Lee, a U.S. Representative from Nevada, saw the news overnight that Trump would be attending the oral arguments, she posted a profanity-laced response underneath a post on X from The Associated Press. 

"So f**king f**ked up," Lee wrote. "I'll pray they f**k him to his face. Sorry, I say f**k a lot these days."

For those keeping score at home, that's four F-bombs packed into a brief two-sentence message consisting of a total of 20 words. Not exactly conduct becoming of a U.S. lawmaker, which is, presumably, why Lee quickly deleted the post not long after making it. However, Bill Melugin of Fox News managed to capture a screenshot the vile outburst before she took it down. Late Wednesday morning, Lee acknowledged her language touched a nerve, and went to accuse Trump of carrying out "attacks on our Constitution."

According to The Wall Street Journal, the Supreme Court seemed to be skeptical of the Trump administration's arguments in defense of the president's executive order, signed on the first day of his second term, overturning birthright citizenship, a provision in the 14th Amendment that has historically resulted in American citizenship being granted to any baby born on U.S. soil. Trump sought to revoke automatic citizenship for any baby born in the U.S. 

After watching the oral arguments on Wednesday, Trump reacted with a post on Truth Social, saying, "We are the only Country in the World STUPID enough to allow “Birthright” Citizenship!"
