Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts reined in Justice Sonia Sotomayor during argument over birthright citizenship and nationwide court injunctions on Thursday.Sotomayor dominated questioning for several minutes at the outset of Thursday's argument after taking over from Justice Clarence Thomas. She pressed U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer for President Donald Trump's administration on several points relating to the authority for federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions, often speaking over the lawyer and interrupting him.Sotomayor argued that Trump's order invalidating birthright citizenship violated four Supreme Court precedents, and that it was justified for a federal judge to grant an injunction against such a controversial order."You are claiming that not just the Supreme Court, that both the Supreme Court and no lower court, can stop an executive from universally violating holdings by this court," Sotomayor said.100 DAYS OF INJUNCTIONS, TRIALS AND 'TEFLON DON': TRUMP SECOND TERM MEETS ITS BIGGEST TESTS IN COURT"We are not claiming that because we're conceding that there could be an appropriate case only in class only," Sauer said."But I hear that--," Sotomayor said, beginning to interrupt Sauer."Can I hear the rest of his answer?" Roberts then interjected.APPEALS COURT BLOCKS TRUMP ADMIN'S DEPORTATION FLIGHTS IN ALIEN ENEMIES ACT IMMIGRATION SUITSauer then elaborated on his statement, saying the government is arguing that federal courts can intervene on behalf of specific plaintiffs before them, but not nationwide. He said the Supreme Court has the authority to grant nationwide injunctions in certain circumstances.Sauer used the bulk of his opening arguments Thursday to reiterate the Trump administration's view that universal injunctions exceeded lower courts Article III powers under the Constitution, noting that the injunctions "transgress the traditional bounds of equitable authority," and "create a host of practical problems."Universal injunctions "require judges to make rushed, high-stakes, low-information decisions," he said. "They operate asymmetrically, forcing the government to win everywhere," and "invert," in the administrations view, the ordinary hierarchical hierarchy of appellate review. They create the ongoing risk of conflicting judgments."A Supreme Court decision here could have sweeping national implications, setting a precedent that would affect the more than 310 federal lawsuits that have challenged White House actions since Trump's second presidency began on Jan. 20, 2025, according to a Fox News data analysis.The consolidated cases before the court are Trump v. CASA, Trump v. the State of Washington,and Trump v. New Jersey.Its unclear when the justices will rule, but their decision to fast-track the case means an opinion or order could come within weeks or even days.Fox News' Breanne Deppisch, Shannon Bream and Bill Mears contributed to this report.

The former South Carolina court clerk who presided over the 2023 Alex Murdaugh murder trial has been released from jail after posting bond Wednesday following her arrest for alleged misconduct during the trial.The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division on Wednesday afternoon announced that Hill, 57, has been charged with obstructing justice and misconduct in Colleton County and perjury in Richland County.She received a $30,000 bond in Colleton County and a $50,000 bond in Richland County.The charges stem from a January 2024 hearing in the South Carolina Supreme Court, when Justice Jean Toal ruled that a new trial was not necessary for Murdaugh, who was convicted in the June 2021 murders of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul, on his family hunting estate. Murdaugh had requested the new hearing based on allegations of jury tampering surrounding Hill, which Murdaugh's defense team had argued warranted a new trial.FORMER SOUTH CAROLINA CLERK IN MURDAUGH MURDER TRIAL ARRESTED ON MULTIPLE FELONIES IN 2 COUNTIESCharging documents state that when Toal asked Hill, "Did you allow anyone from the press to view sealed exhibits?" Hill responded, "No, ma'am," which is apparently inconsistent with evidence obtained by authorities.Fox News Digital has reached out to Hill's attorney, Will Lewis, for comment.Lewis said Hill "turned herself in" Wednesday during her hearing in Colleton County. "We found out about these charges last night," he said.SOUTH CAROLINA JUDGE DENIES ALEX MURDAUGH'S REQUEST FOR A NEW MURDER TRIALThe State Ethics Commission last year accused Hill of using her official position as Colleton County clerk for financial gain, specifically to promote her book about the Murdaugh case, part of which she admitted to and apologized for plagiarizing.WATCH: REBECCA HILL ON THE MURDAUGH VERDICT:The SLED charging documents released Wednesday also accuse Hill of promoting her book on social media.Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin, Murdaugh's defense attorneys, told Fox News Digital in a Wednesday statement that while the charges against Hill "are serious, they are not surprising."ALEX MURDAUGH COURT CLERK BECKY HILL MISUSED THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON PAINT SUPPLIES, DOG BED, GIFTS: COMPLAINT"We have long raised our concerns about her conduct during and after the trial and this arrest further underscores the need to protect the integrity of the judicial process. Every defendant is entitled to a fair and impartial trial and we look forward to Alex Murdaugh finally getting that fair treatment," the attorneys said.Harpootlian told Fox News on Wednesday that he believes the charges against Hill will result in a new trial for Murdaugh.South Carolina attorney Eric Bland, who represented several victims of Murdaugh's financial crimes, said he "used to think that there was very little chance that our South Carolina Supreme Court would reverse former Chief Justice Jean Toals decision in February 2024 when she denied Alex Murdaugh a new trial on his double murder conviction because of Becky Hill alleged jury interference.""I thought that if he was to get any relief, it would come after he exhausted his state court appeals and it would be on the federal level," Bland said in a Wednesday post on X. "According to the State Paper, the perjury charge arises out of her testimony that she gave in the February 2024 hearing in front of Justice Toal. I think this further complicates the situation and increases the chances that he will get a reversal and a new trial. It still will come down to whether the federal standard for alleged jury tampering should have been applied by Justice Toal or she was correct in applying the state standard."SIGN UP TO GET THE TRUE CRIME NEWSLETTERHill was previously accused of sending herself nearly $10,000 in federal bonuses in the form of child support payments, according to a notice of hearing. She used federal funds to give food and gifts to court employees, including "Easter Goodies," Mother's and Father's Day gifts, and Valentine's Day gifts; paint supplies; flowers and decor; various meals for herself; office furniture; dog food, dog bones and a dog bed, among other items.SLED charging documents make note of the bonus payments.ALEX MURDAUGH COURT CLERK BECKY HILL RESIGNS AFTER ALLEGATIONS OF JURY TAMPERINGOf 12 total jurors who found Murdaugh guilty in 2023, 11 said Hill did not influence their decisions. One said he heard the clerk make comments about watching Murdaugh's body language but said her words did not influence his verdict.The former court clerk, who held her position for about four years, resigned in March following allegations of jury tampering in the Murdaugh trial but maintained that her decision to leave office was not the result of her conduct during the double murder trial.FOLLOW THE FOX TRUE CRIME TEAM ON X"Another significant impact in our clerk's office was in 2023, when we had to manage one of the biggest trials in South Carolina history. Our small town came together and made everyone proud," Hill said during a news conference at the time to announce her resignation. "Managing a trial with such importance to the people of South Carolina, as well as to the national and international media interest and public scrutiny, has caused me to reflect upon decisions involving my stay in the office of the clerk of court."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPShe added that her decision not to seek re-election in 2024 would allow her to "focus on being a wife, a mother and a grandmother," and that she wants to provide "ample time to other Republican candidates" interested in the position of Colleton County court clerk.GET REAL-TIME UPDATES DIRECTLY ON THE TRUE CRIME HUBHer former attorney, Justin Bamberg, who has represented victims of Murdaugh's financial crimes, said at a March news conference that Hill's decision had nothing to do with any pending investigations involving the clerk.

After Jamie Lee Curtis's self-esteem was crushed by a cinematographer at a young age, the legendary actress made a life-changing decision she still regrets."He was like, Yeah, I'm not shooting her today. Her eyes are baggy. And I was 25, so for him to say that, it was very embarrassing," Curtis, who was filming the 1985 movie "Perfect" at the time, said during Sunday's episode of 60 Minutes. "So, as soon as the movie finished, I ended up having some plastic surgery.""That's just not what you want to do when you're 25 or 26," she continued. "And I regretted it immediately and have kind of sort of regretted it since."JAMIE LEE CURTIS KNOCKS PLASTIC SURGERY TRENDS: FILLERS, PROCEDURES ARE 'WIPING OUT GENERATIONS OF BEAUTY'"I've become a really public advocate to say to women, 'You're gorgeous, and you're perfect the way you are.' So, yeah, it was not a good thing for me to do," she added.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERThe Golden Globe Award-winning actress, who has been open about her past dependency on drugs throughout the years, said she became "enamored" with the effects of drugs."I became very enamored with the warm bath of an opiate," said Curtis. "You know, drank a little bit never to excess, never any big public demonstrations. I was very quiet, very private about it, but it became a dependency, for sure."In 2019, Curtis described her former self as a "controlled drug addict and alcoholic" in Varietys "The Recovery Issue.""I never did it when I worked," she told the outlet at the time. "I never took drugs before 5 p.m. I never ever took painkillers at 10 in the morning. It was that sort of late afternoon and early evening I like to refer to it as the warm-bath feeling of an opiate. . . . I chased that feeling for a long time."Curtis attended her first recovery meeting in February 1999, after reading Tom Chiarella's essay "Vicodin, My Vicodin" in Esquire magazine."I was terrified [of being recognized]. I was just terrified that someone in the recovery community was going to betray my trust," Curtis confessed. "But it is my experience that that doesnt really happen and that my fear was unfounded."In 2021, she opened up about the plastic surgery procedure that led her down the dangerous road of addiction."I tried plastic surgery, and it didnt work. It got me addicted to Vicodin. Im 22 years sober now," Curtis shared with Fast Company at the time."The current trend of fillers and procedures, and this obsession with filtering, and the things that we do to adjust our appearance on Zoom are wiping out generations of beauty. Once you mess with your face, you cant get it back."That same year, Curtis celebrated her sobriety journey on social media.The actress took to Instagram, where she posted a throwback photo of herself holding an alcoholic beverage."A LONG time ago In a galaxy far, far away I was a young STAR at WAR with herself," the 62-year-old wrote. "I didn't know it then. I chased everything. I kept it hidden. I was [as] sick as my secrets.""With God's grace and the support of MANY people who could relate to all the 'feelings' and a couple of sober angels...I've been able to stay sober, one day at a time, for 22 years," Curtis continued. "I was a high bottom, pun kind of intended, so the rare photo of me proudly drinking in a photo op is very useful to help me remember. To all those struggling and those who are on the pathMY HAND IN YOURS."Fox News Digital's Stephanie Nolasco contributed to this post.

Justice Elena Kagan grilled U.S. Solicitor General John Sauer on the practicalities of ending universal injunctions on Thursday, a major sticking point in a highly watched case centered on birthright citizenship and the power of lower courts to rule against the executive branch.Kagan pressed Sauer Thursday on the practicalities of ending universal injunctions and how the higher court should then be tasked with managing the flow of lower court challenges.She also noted that the Trump administration has been "losing uniformly" in lower court cases on the "substantive question" in dealing with birthright citizenship.SUPREME COURT TAKES ON BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP: LIBERALS BALK AT TRUMP ARGUMENT TO END NATIONWIDE INJUNCTIONS"If I were in your shoes, there's no way I'd approach the Court with this case!" Kagan quipped.After he attempted to answer, she responded that "This is not a hypothetical this is happening out there.""Every court is ruling against you."Justices on the High Court agreed in April to hear the case, which centers on three lower courts that issued national injunctions earlier this year blocking President Donald Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship.The order reinterprets the 14th Amendment to deny automatic U.S. citizenship to children born in the U.S. if their mother is unlawfully present or temporarily in the country, and if their father is neither a U.S. citizen nor a lawful permanent resident at the time of birth. Trump's action remains on hold nationwide pending Supreme Court intervention.A Supreme Court decision here could have sweeping national implications, setting a precedent that would affect the more than 310 federal lawsuits that have challenged White House actions since Trump's second presidency began on Jan. 20, 2025, according to a Fox News data analysis.

A drummer and green card holder for a Texas-based band was removed from a flight by federal immigration officials on Monday before the band was set to depart for a European tour.Yamal Said, a member of the heavy Americana band Lord Buffalo, was detained at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents who said they had a warrant for his arrest after he allegedly violated a restraining order at least twice, the Department of Homeland Security said on X.Violating a protective order two or more times can lead to it becoming a felony in Texas, based on the circumstances."Yamal Said is a Mexican national and lawful U.S. permanent resident," the agency wrote on X sharing a news headline about the incident.TUFTS UNIVERSITY STUDENT DETAINED BY ICE GRANTED BAIL BY FEDERAL JUDGE"Said had a warrant for his arrest after violating a restraining order at least TWICE. If you come to our country and break our laws, you will be arrested. When he was attempting to leave the U.S., he was apprehended by CBP and has been turned over to local law enforcement."The exact nature of the protective order has not been made public. Said is currently being held atthe Tarrant County Corrections Center.Said moved to the U.S. in the 1980s after a devastating earthquake hit Mexico City, Voyage Austin previously reported. He has been the bands drummer for the last eight years and teaches music for Texas School for the Blind based in Austin, the outlet reported.JUDGE ORDERS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION RESTORE OHIO STATE GRAD STUDENT'S VISAPaul Carlson, assistant principal at the school, remarked that Said is "a highly respected and long-serving member of our school community," the Austin Chronicle reported.Saids detention forced the band to announce on social media that it had canceled its tour."We appreciate the tremendous outpouring of support from yall today. We still know very little about the situation, but we have been asked by our drummers family and his legal team to respect their privacy while this situation evolves," the band wrote.The band had been preparing for an eight-date European tour in support of their latest album, "Holus Bolus," with Norwegian band Orsak:Oslo, the Austin Chronicle reported."No one should be pulled off a plane and jailed for simply trying to travel and make art with their band,"Orsak:Oslo wrote on social media Wednesday. "We wont pretend to understand the full complexity of the situation, but this should not happen anywhere."

A new national poll released this week is one of the first to indicate a bump up in President Donald Trump's approval ratings after a steady edging down in the president's numbers since he returned to office in January.Trump stands at 44% approval and 52% disapproval in a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted Monday and Tuesday (May 12-13). The president's approval rating edged up two points which is within the survey's sampling error from the previous Reuters/Ipsos national survey, which was in the field late last month.US-CHINA TRADE TRUCE IGNITES STOCK MARKETSLikely fueling the modest increase in the president's overall approval rating is his performance on the economy. The new poll indicates 39% of adults nationwide give Trump a thumbs up on how he is handling the economy, up three points from last month.The new poll was conducted amid this week's surge in the stock markets following a truce between the U.S. and China in their tariff standoff, and in the wake of last week's signing of an initial trade deal with the United Kingdom which is the first since Trump implemented massive tariffs on friends and foes across the globe six weeks ago.WHAT'S IN THE TRADE TRUCE WITH CHINATrump's blockbuster tariff announcement in early April sparked a trade war with some of the nation's top trading partners and triggered a massive sell-off in the financial markets and increased concerns about a recession.However, as Trump has partially reversed course in recent weeks by easing back on his sharpest trade moves, public concerns about recession have also slightly eased, while still remaining at heightened levels.Sixty-nine percent questioned in the new poll said they were worried about a recession, down from 76% a month ago. Additionally, concerns about the stock market dropped seven points, to 60%.Veteran Republican strategist Colin Reed told Fox News that the president has "been very clear-eyed about the fact that you are going to have to break some eggs to make an omelet and his voters will give him the latitude to do so."Were still less than 150 days in, hes got some time to make the hard calls that have to be made and still give the economic plane runway to take off ahead of the midterms, which is when all of these early decisions will be graded," Reed added.WHERE TRUMP STANDS IN THE LATEST FOX NEWS POLLMost, but not all, of the most recent national public opinion surveys indicate Trump's approval ratings in negative territory, which is a slide from the president's poll position when he started his second tour of duty in the White House nearly four months ago.Trump stood at 44% approval and 55% disapproval in the most recent Fox News national poll, which was conducted April 18-21.An average of the latest national surveys puts the president's approval rating underwater by around four points, but that is a slight improvement from late last month.The economy, and inflation in particular, were pressing issues that kept former President Joe Biden's approval ratings well below water for most of his presidency, and which greatly contributed to Trump's White House victory last November.They were behind Trump's slide in the polls so far this year."Trumps return to office did not begin as he and his supporters had hoped. Campaign promises about inflation and interest rates appeared deferred while the daily news coverage focused on the many distractions plaguing the White House," longtime political scientist and analyst Wayne Lesperance noted.However, Lesperance, president of New England College, said that "signs of progress may be emerging. Possible trade deals with Britain, China, and India are providing hope that some good may come from his tariff strategy. Add to that a rebounding stock market and lower gas prices at the start of summer vacation season and the president may see some calming of public nervousness."

The Indianapolis Colts came under fire on Wednesday night for a since-deleted social media video that was intended to creatively reveal the team's 2025 game schedule.The clip, which was animated in the style of the Microsoft-owned video game Minecraft, opened with a segment previewing the team's Week 1 game against the Miami Dolphins. In it, Dolphins star Tyreek Hill was depicted as a dolphin and was then approached by a Coast Guard boat blaring a police siren, with a police officer glaring at Hill.Hill was arrested in September in a widely publicized controversy that featured bodycam footage of the wide receiver being pinned to the ground by police while put in handcuffs.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe Colts deleted the video later that evening and have since provided a statement to Fox New Digital clarifying that it was deleted due to the Hill depiction and because it violated the team's agreement with Microsoft."We removed our schedule release video because it exceeded our rights with Microsoft and included an insensitive clip involving Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

President Donald Trump's executive order aimed at slashing U.S. drug prices has divided Democrats on Capitol Hill, with some cautiously optimistic while others dismissed the move as a bluster.Most Democratic lawmakers who spoke with Fox News Digital about the order noted they had not read into the details, but the reactions were mostly split."It certainly seems more bark than it is bite," Rep. Richard Neal, D-Mass., the top Democrat on the House Ways & Means Committee, told Fox News Digital.Neal said it "strikes me as though it's another example of the executive order that garners a lot of attention" with little impact, though he noted he was still looking into the details.ANTI-ABORTION PROVIDER MEASURE IN TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' COULD SPARK HOUSE GOP REBELLIONRep. George Latimer of New York, a first-term Democrat who unseated a former member of the progressive "Squad," ex-Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., signaled he was hopeful about the initiative."If we can keep drug costs low, that's a positive thing," Latimer said. "I don't, you know, oppose everything the president does, things that help people lower costs. If that's what this turns into, then yes, it's a worthwhile idea. But I have to be honest, I've got to read it more closely to understand it better."Trump announced Monday that he was directing the Department of Health and Human Services to set price targets for pharmaceutical companies.The president said the order would have pharmaceutical companies set drug prices on par with the lowest prices in other developed countries.He said, "some prescription drug and pharmaceutical prices will be reduced almost immediately by 50 to 80 to 90%."Democratic Rep. Lou Correa, D-Calif., told Fox News Digital when asked about the order, "It's always a good thing to reduce drug costs.""I think it's a move in the right direction, let's just see the details," Correa added.Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas, like Neal, told Fox News Digital he was more skeptical."My feeling is that, like hisannouncements during his first term, there's much talk and no meaningful reduction of drug prices," Doggett said. "It remains to be seen whether any patient in America will see a price reduced on a single drug as a result of this order. So, until I see action, I will not believe that he has truly committed to reducing prices."House Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar, D-Calif., also said he did not believe Trump was "serious" when asked."All of this is just a disingenuous efforton the part of House Republicans and Donald Trump, to pretend like they were looking out for people," Aguilar said. "If they were serious about it, the policy would be placed within their reconciliation bill. It's not. This is just a performance effort by the president."BROWN UNIVERSITY IN GOP CROSSHAIRS AFTER STUDENT'S DOGE-LIKE EMAIL KICKS OFF FRENZYMeanwhile, Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., introduced a House bill to make Trump's order permanent."I rise today, to introduce as legislation, President Trumps executive order for the most favored nation status on drug pricing," Khanna said on the House floor."My legislation will codify President Trumps executive order, which basically says that Americans should not pay more for drugs than people in other countries and other parts of the world."In an exclusive Fox News interview with Sean Hannity, Trump argued that his executive order should offset Democrats' concerns with his "big, beautiful" budget reconciliation bill being pushed by Republicans.Democrats have accused Republicans of using the bill to gut critical programs like Medicaid for millions of people who need it, while the GOP has contended it was just trying to eliminate waste and abuse within the system."It's theDemocrats' fault that people are being ripped off for years and years. And now I hearDemocrats saying, 'Oh, well, we're going to not go for the bill.' It's going to be very hard for them not to approve of the big, beautiful bill that we're doing," Trump said. "We're doing the biggest tax cuts in the history of our country because people are going to be getting a 50 to a 90% reduction ondrugprices."Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for a response.
