Trump gains more power with supreme court wins

The U.S. Supreme Court’s recent term ended with big wins for President Donald Trump. In a key 6-3 decision, the court limited the ability of judges to block presidential actions across the country. This ruling, written by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, is a major boost for Trump’s plans, making it easier for him to push his policies forward.

The decision came in a case about birthright citizenship, where Trump wants to limit automatic citizenship for some babies born in the U.S. While the court didn’t decide if this policy is legal, it told lower courts to rethink their nationwide blocks on it. This gives Trump more room to act while legal fights continue. Trump called the ruling a “huge victory” on social media, saying it stops judges from halting his plans.

The decision could affect many of his policies that have been stuck in court, like immigration changes. However, some experts, like William Baude from the University of Chicago, think Trump’s citizenship plan might still fail in future court battles.

Immigrant rights groups quickly filed new lawsuits to challenge Trump’s citizenship order after the ruling. The decision has confused many, as people affected try to understand what it means for them. Overall, the Supreme Court’s move strengthens Trump’s ability to use his executive power, potentially reshaping how his administration operates.
