Hawk

He's raw, unfiltered, unedited, authentic, vulnerable and sometimes annoying. His laugh is infectious, and he often engages in long periods of awkward silence. He will tell it like it is, and whether you’re on the left or the right he’s bound to make you uncomfortable at some point. But he will definitely make you think. A licensed, practicing trial attorney for the last 25 years, he brings his legal experience and knowledge to the news of the day and current events here at home to offer different perspectives and additional things to consider.

    Reactions to Birthright Citizenship SCOTUS Decision

    Hugh Hewitt praises the ruling while pivoting quickly to celebrating Kavanaugh's concurrence encouraging Congress to pass a law restricting birthright citizenship. Hawk responds by noting that Congress cannot even get all Republican votes for the Save Act, let alone pass a constitutional amendment. Lisa Rubin analyzes Kavanaugh's partial dissent in detail, with Hawk describing Kavanaugh as the kid in class who always needs to be different for attention. Mike Johnson responds to the ruling live on air, with Hawk pointing out that the plain language of the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause leaves no wiggle room for the executive order Trump signed on day one. Hawk reads from Clarence Thomas's dissent, which refers to the subjects of the 14th Amendment as the freed blacks, a phrase Hawk finds telling given that Thomas cannot bring himself to write the words Black Americans. Hawk also addresses Stephen Miller's public statement calling this the worst Supreme Court decision ever made, and fact-checks Trump's immediate claim that the United States is the only country in the world with birthright citizenship by noting that 33 countries on every continent have it.

    Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship - But Not Without Dissent

    The majority opinion was written by Chief Justice John Roberts and joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Ketanji Brown Jackson, and Amy Coney Barrett. Brett Kavanaugh concurred in the judgment while dissenting in part. Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented, joined by Neil Gorsuch. The court grounded its decision in the historical context of the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause, tracing the language back to English common law, the Dred Scott decision and its widespread condemnation, Attorney General Edward Bates' wartime opinion on citizenship, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, and the court's prior precedent in United States v. Wong Kim Ark. Hawk connects the executive order directly to Stephen Miller's documented stated goal of an America populated almost entirely by people who look like him, and explains why birthright citizenship was the primary legal mechanism the administration intended to use to strip citizenship from Black and brown Americans descended from earlier generations born in the United States. He closes by noting that Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito remain on the court, and what that means for the 2026 midterm Senate races in Texas and Maine if either justice resigns under a Republican-controlled Senate.

    Ro Khanna Said Elon Musk Has Blood on His Hands - Musk Threatened to Put Him in Jail.

    Second, NBC News correspondent Ryan Nobles corners Republican Senator Roger Marshall on Meet the Press over voter fraud claims, with Hawk noting that Republicans won the House, the Senate, the presidency, and effectively control the Supreme Court in 2024, making the left-rigs-elections argument impossible to sustain. Third, an Ohio pastor from the Springfield area shares a firsthand account of what Haitian immigrants have contributed to his community, and what the TPS ruling means for families who have been there for over a decade. Hawk also covers the current conditions in Haiti that made Temporary Protected Status necessary in the first place. Fourth, Steve Schmidt and Jim Acosta discuss Megyn Kelly's racist commentary about Haitian immigrants, with Hawk responding to her record and her history with Trump going back to the 2016 debate. Fifth, Fox News broadcasts live from Trump's America 250 celebration, which is scheduled for 16 days. The footage behind the reporter shows almost no one in attendance, prompting widespread mockery including from Ron Filipkowski, Hemant Mehta, and others.

    The TPS Ruling and the Roberts Supreme Court

    Serwer's piece documents the Trump administration's explicitly race-based statements about Haitian immigrants, including claims they all have AIDS, eat household pets, are genetically predisposed to crime, and are poisoning the blood of the country. Samuel Alito's majority opinion declined to repeat any of those statements, substituting his own race-neutral explanations for what they might have meant instead. Justice Elena Kagan's dissent noted that the evidence was plain to see in statements the majority and even Trump's own lawyers could not bring themselves to repeat. The article brings in legal scholars including Guy-Uriel Charles of Harvard Law, who describes the ruling as setting up an impossible burden for plaintiffs, Anderson Francois of Georgetown, who notes that the administration now needs only a plausible pretext to discriminate while Black plaintiffs need proof no amount of evidence will satisfy, and Melissa Murray of NYU, who calls this a colorblind constitution the architects of Jim Crow would love. Serwer also traces Alito's selective application of intent, showing he is perfectly willing to read racial motive into policies when white people could be perceived as the victims, as in his 2009 Ricci v. DeStefano opinion, but refuses to do so here.

    This Supreme Court is a Weapon of White Supremacy

    Haitian plaintiffs did raise exactly that claim, arguing that Trump's decision to strip their TPS was motivated by racial animus and citing Trump and administration officials' own racist statements about Haitian immigrants. Alito's response in the majority opinion was that because Trump expresses hostility toward immigrants broadly, his actions cannot be considered racially motivated. Hawk points out that this reasoning ignores Trump's own documented statements about countries populated by Black and brown people, and the fact that of approximately 6,500 refugees admitted to the United States in 2025, all but three were white South Africans. Justice Elena Kagan wrote in dissent that the evidence from Trump's own statements made clear the TPS revocation targeting Haitian immigrants was driven by race and racial animus, and that those statements were so egregious Alito did not quote or cite them in the majority opinion. Hawk connects this ruling to the court's recent dismantling of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and the resulting race to redraw congressional maps across Confederate states, arguing that together these decisions represent a court that has become an instrument of white supremacy and authoritarian consolidation of executive power.

    Democratic Socialism Sweeps New York

    Hawk addresses the establishment's attempt to frame the losses as a product of antisemitism, pointing out that the three congressional districts involved contain some of the largest Jewish populations of any districts in the country, meaning Jewish voters themselves rejected the AIPAC-backed candidates in large numbers. He plays a clip of Joe Scarborough's reaction and walks through an Axios report on moderate Democrats describing the results as an earthquake. Hawk also covers New York Attorney General Letitia James expressing disappointment in Mamdani, and plays a clip of New Jersey Congressman Josh Gottheimer going on Fox News to attack the results and conflate criticism of Israel's policies in Gaza with antisemitism. Hawk responds directly to Gottheimer's framing and his proposed legislation titled No Grounds for Discrimination, connected to a Brooklyn coffee shop named Poetica that banned Congressman Goldman over his support for Israeli policy.

    MAGA Mutiny Over Iran War Deal

    Ben Shapiro aired his own criticism, calling out JD Vance for getting embarrassed by Iran and saying he has never seen a weaker Republican performance. Hawk also plays a clip of Mark Thiessen, a former George W. Bush speechwriter and one of the most consistent Trump boosters at the Washington Post and on Fox News, breaking from his pattern of unconditional praise to call the Iran deal a disaster. Hawk walks through a list of Thiessen's previous columns dating back to March, each one predicting or celebrating Trump's imminent victory in Iran, as context for how significant it is to hear Thiessen criticize the deal at all. Hawk covers the financial terms of the agreement, including the release of roughly $100 billion in previously frozen Iranian assets that is already underway, on top of a $300 billion reconstruction fund. He also references the deal's language committing the United States to lifting all sanctions on Iran, including on oil sales, and contrasts the entire outcome with what the Obama-era JCPOA accomplished without a war or a closed Strait of Hormuz.

    Donald Trump Doesn't Understand The War He Just Lost to Iran

    Hawk plays a clip of Nichols appearing on Deadline White House with Nicole Wallace on June 22nd. He covers Trump's claim that Iran's enriched uranium stockpile is essentially worthless, a reversal from his earlier position that Iran must surrender its entire nuclear program. Hawk points out that Iran only resumed enrichment after Trump tore up the JCPOA in 2018, and that JD Vance's announcement of independent nuclear inspectors entering Iran was something the Obama deal already secured from 2015 to 2018. Hawk argues that Iran won this war not militarily but economically and psychologically, by accurately profiling both Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu from the start and understanding exactly how each would respond to domestic economic pressure. He notes Trump was warned before the war began, including by Tucker Carlson, that Iran's first move would be closing the Strait of Hormuz. He didn't listen. Hawk also addresses Pete Hegseth's role, the Iranian delegation's refusal to shake JD Vance's hand, and the unresolved conflict between Israel and Lebanon that continues to block any lasting deal.
