Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett took aim at Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissenting opinion in Trump v. CASA—a ruling related to President Donald Trump's birthright citizenship executive order.

Barrett wrote the majority opinion, which sided with the Trump administration. In her ruling, the conservative justice said her liberal colleague's "position is difficult to pin down." She went on to describe the dissent as "more extreme still," and said that Jackson's opinion "is at odds with more than two centuries' worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself."

"We observe only this: Justice Jackson decries an imperial Executive while embracing an imperial Judiciary," she wrote.
