Trump Cites ‘Obama Sycophant,’ Continues Pressing Senate GOP To Nix Filibuster
President Donald Trump is still pushing for the Senate GOP to get rid of the filibuster. The president posted a video on Truth Social on Monday that included audio of former Attorney General Eric Holder saying that if Democrats win a “trifecta” in the 2028 elections, they should think about extending the Supreme Court.
Holder said this while talking to Ben Meiselas, who co-founded MeidasTouch, which posted the footage last month.
In the Monday Truth Social post, Trump referred to Holder, who served under Democratic President Barack Obama, as an “Obama sycophant” and said that “Eric Holder (known as ‘FAST AND FURIOUS’) just gave a Speech where he emphatically stated, above all else, that Democrats will PACK the Supreme Court of the United States if they get the chance. The word is, he wants 21 Radical Left Activist Judges, not being satisfied with the heretofore 15 that they were seeking.”
Trump said that getting rid of the filibuster will help Republicans win the 2026 midterm elections and the 2028 presidential election.
“It will be 21, they will destroy our Constitution, and there’s not a thing that the Republicans can do about it unless we TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, which will lead to an easy WIN of the Midterms, and an even easier WIN in the Presidential Election of 2028,” he asserted.
“Why would the Republicans even think about giving them this opportunity? The American People don’t want gridlock, they want their Leaders to GET THINGS DONE — TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, AND HAVE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FOUR YEARS IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY, BY FAR, WITH NOT EVEN THE HINT OF A SHUTDOWN OF OUR GREAT NATION ON JANUARY 30TH!” Trump declared in the
post.
This is the second time in recent weeks that Trump has gone after former President Barack Obama.
The new interim U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of New York, appointed to the post by Trump, once called out Joe Biden and Obama as well as twice-failed presidential contender Hillary Clinton.
John A. Sarcone III, a lawyer in private practice in Westchester County, accused Biden of being a “traitor” and committing “treason” in a 2022 social media post.
After Biden tweeted on New Year’s Eve that year he was “ready to get things done,” Sarcone responded, “Traitor should be tried for treason. Worst person to occupy the White House.”
Sarcone once tweeted that Obama should be “the first illegal alien deported” while calling for Clinton to be jailed for treason.
Sarcone was allowed to be placed in his interim position without needing Senate confirmation. And while he does not have any prosecutorial experience, he has a lengthy track record as an attorney who has also worked for Trump’s campaigns.
When Sarcone was sworn in on Monday in Albany, he defended his limited prosecutorial experience by asserting in his speech that what truly defines a good prosecutor is “judgment.”
“I believe the prosecutorial power, and discretion,” he said, “is best entrusted to those with the full breadth of professional and life experiences, from which common sense, wisdom, and informed judgment emerge.” Sarcone said his priorities will include securing the border with Canada; ending “lawlessness and willful disregard” for federal laws; and fighting against public corruption, scams and consumer fraud.
In addition, the interim U.S. attorney suggested he could target Upstate colleges and universities, saying federal prosecutors will support students’ rights “to be free from harassment or threats because of their religious beliefs.”
“Our reach will not stop at prosecuting those who choose to violate our laws, but also those who knowingly support any violations in any way, shape or form,” he said, as noted by the media outlet in its report.
SENATOR KENNEDY DELIVERS FATAL BLOW TO OMAR'S CAREER AS SHE BLAMES TRUMP FOR SOMALI PANIC
Minneapolis, Minn. — Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) held an emergency press conference in Minneapolis to address what she described as widespread fear within the local Somali community amid reports of intensified federal deportation operations under the Trump administration.
Omar stated that the community was “paralyzed by fear,” with families taking precautions such as mothers avoiding phone calls and fathers sleeping in shifts to guard against potential enforcement actions. She attributed the heightened anxiety and an reported increase in death threats against her and her constituents directly to President Donald Trump, accusing his policies and rhetoric of targeting the community and amounting to “ethnic cleansing disguised as policy.”
Omar characterized the situation as the result of a “white nationalist agenda,” positioning herself as a defender of vulnerable families and calling for national attention to what she termed a humanitarian crisis on American soil.
In response, Senator John Kennedy (R-La.) addressed the matter on the Senate floor shortly after Omar’s remarks. Kennedy acknowledged the reported threats and community anxiety but offered a sharply different interpretation of their cause.
“The Congresswoman is very upset today,” Kennedy said. “She says she is receiving threats. She says her community is afraid. And she blames President Trump for lighting the match.”
He continued by arguing that the fear stemmed not from the president’s actions but from the consequences of Omar’s own past statements about the United States. Kennedy stated that Omar had spent years portraying America as a “hateful, racist, evil place” while benefiting from its opportunities, and that the current backlash represented “the receipts for the division you ordered.”
Kennedy concluded that the situation in Minnesota was not a tragedy caused by external forces but “poetic justice,” adding, “The fear in Minnesota isn’t because Donald Trump is a monster. It’s because for the first time in your career, the law has finally arrived to collect the debt you owe.”
The exchange has drawn significant attention on social media and in political commentary circles. Supporters of Omar have echoed her concerns about community safety and the tone of immigration enforcement, while critics have praised Kennedy’s remarks for reframing the narrative around personal accountability and the long-term effects of political rhetoric.
No official confirmation of specific deportation targets in Minneapolis has been released by the Department of Homeland Security at this time, though administration officials have previously indicated that operations would focus on individuals with criminal records or final removal orders. The incident occurs against the backdrop of ongoing national debates over immigration policy, sanctuary jurisdictions, and the balance between enforcement and community relations.
As the 2026 midterm elections approach, the public confrontation between the Minnesota congresswoman and the Louisiana senator has intensified partisan divisions and highlighted contrasting views on the roots of fear and division within immigrant communities.
BREAKING: Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas Makes Announcement No One Saw Coming
WASHINGTON, D.C. — June 2, 2026 — A explosive constitutional crisis has erupted on the nation’s highest bench, exposing a terrifying vulnerability on America's interstate highways and drawing a violent line between state sovereignty and federal enforcement.
What happens when sanctuary-state policies weaponize commercial driving licenses, placing undocumented individuals behind the wheels of 80,000-pound death machines? For a furious faction on the Supreme Court, the answer is a total betrayal of public safety. In a dramatic developments on Monday, Justice Clarence Thomas, joined in full by Justice Samuel Alito, issued a blistering, high-threshold dissent after the Supreme Court flatly refused to hear Florida’s blockbuster lawsuit challenging California and Washington for systematically issuing commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) to undocumented immigrants in flagrant violation of federal safety standards.
Thomas argued with fierce urgency that the high court had an absolute, unyielding constitutional duty to resolve this escalating interstate warfare, issuing a dark warning that the lax, ideologically driven policies of blue states are actively endangering American roadways and public safety nationwide.
“If this Court does not exercise jurisdiction over a controversy between two States, then the complaining State has no judicial forum in which to seek relief.” — Justice Clarence Thomas
I. THE TURNPIKE MASSACRE: AN 80,000-POUND WEAPON
At the bleeding edge of this legal warfare is a gruesome, real-world tragedy that proves these border disputes are no longer confined to courtrooms.
Thomas used his powerful platform to highlight a deadly 2025 Florida Turnpike crash that shocked the nation. The catastrophic incident involved an undocumented truck driver—licensed exclusively through the lax loopholes of California or Washington—who allegedly executed a fatal, illegal U-turn. Shockingly, investigators revealed the driver could not even read basic American road signs, resulting in a horrific collision that killed three innocent people.
The raw danger of the loophole forced Thomas to issue a chillingly blunt declaration that cut straight through the political noise surrounding the case:
“An illegal alien who cannot read English road signs cannot drive an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer.”
II. THE ADMINISTRATIVE LETHALITY RESPONSE: MARITIME AND HIGHWAY SECURITY
The structural metrics of federal law are completely clear, yet they are being systematically bypassed. Thomas explicitly emphasized that binding federal statutes mandate proper English proficiency, a grueling valid driver’s test, and appropriate, verified immigration status before any individual can legally acquire a commercial license.
This high-stakes case exposes how sanctuary-style policies in liberal states create devastating, border-crossing hazards that spill violently across state lines. This direct defiance collides perfectly with President Donald Trump’s aggressive, heavy-handed immigration enforcement agenda.
Moving at true wartime speed, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has already stepped into the arena, moving decisively to tighten federal rules for non-citizens seeking CDLs. Duffy has issued a stern, high-threshold warning to California, threatening that the state could lose massive tranches of vital federal funding if it continues its reckless defiance of federal guidelines.
III. THE CONSTITUTIONAL ABDICATION
Thomas made it entirely clear that states surrendered their individual rights to ignore such conflicts the moment they joined the Union. Under the original architecture of the Constitution, the Supreme Court must act as the supreme forum for interstate resolution. By walking away from this fight, Thomas accused the majority of cowardice, prioritizing policy preferences over their sacred constitutional oaths.
“We have no more right to decline the exercise of jurisdiction which is given, than to usurp that which is not given.” — Justice Clarence Thomas
In a telling display of ideological alignment, the Court's liberal justices remained entirely silent during the majority’s refusal to take the case, quietly enabling the dangerous, multi-state commercial licensing practice to continue completely unchecked.
THE FINAL VERDICT
This powerful, historic dissent from Justice Thomas reinforces the absolute baseline of President Trump’s America First priorities: secure borders, unyielding public safety, and total accountability from states that put everyday citizens at risk.
As mass deportation operations rapidly expand across the homeland and federal standards are ruthlessly enforced, Thomas’s call for judicial responsibility highlights an urgent, terrifying truth. The nation must immediately end the reckless policies enabling illegal immigrants to operate heavy commercial vehicles across the American grid. As the high court slams its doors, everyday drivers are left to scan the highway lanes and wonder: who is behind the wheel of the next 18-wheeler approaching them in the dark?
