‘Good Riddance’: Sen. Kennedy Lambasts Justice Jackson Over Universal Injunction Dissent

Louisiana Republican Sen. John Kennedy said he was “proud” of the Supreme Court following a Friday ruling that he argued must be good for the country—if only because it appeared to deeply anger Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Appearing on Fox’s Faulkner Focus with anchor Harris Faulkner, Kennedy applauded the Court’s 6–3 decision in a case involving birthright citizenship, one of several recent rulings that have drawn sharp backlash from the left.

The ruling effectively struck down lower court injunctions blocking executive orders issued by former President Donald Trump. Faulkner pointed out that the decision could impact more than just Trump’s birthright citizenship order, potentially setting a broader precedent.

“So this has bigger implications than just that one topic of birthright citizenship,” said Faulkner. “Your reaction to this?”

“The Supreme Court has turned the universal injunctions into fish food, as well it should have,” said Kennedy. “There’s no basis in statute. There’s no basis in Supreme Court precedent. There is no basis in English common law for universal injunctions.”
