Trump's Unprecedented Courtroom Attendance Sparks Controversy

In a surprising move, President Donald Trump attended a Supreme Court argument on Wednesday, sitting among the public—a break from tradition for sitting presidents. Trump remained a silent spectator as the justices examined the defense of his executive order targeting birthright citizenship.

Joined by Attorney General Pam Bondi and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Trump observed an intense session where justices, including some of his own appointees, challenged his administration's position. Following the session, Trump voiced his discontent on social media, sharply criticizing the ruling and the patriotism of the justices.

Notably, actor Robert DeNiro, a vocal Trump critic, was present in the justices' guest box but did not engage with the president. The incident underscored the escalating tensions between Trump and the judiciary, with experts suggesting that Trump's actions are unlikely to sway the court's independent stance.
