US Top Court Ends Nationwide Orders Halting Trump Policies

Background

By Stefan J. Bos, Chief International Correspondent Worthy News

WASHINGTON D.C. (Worthy News) – U.S. President Donald J. Trump has welcomed the nation’s Supreme Court ruling that lower courts can no longer issue nationwide orders stopping his administration from enforcing a policy.

Calling it a “monumental win,” Trump noted that the 6-3 court decision would impact his and future presidencies.

Nationwide injunctions have been at the center of his administration’s standoff with the judiciary, as several of Trump’s actions — from his “illegal immigration” crackdown to efforts to freeze federal funding — were halted by district court judges.

“I was elected on a historic mandate,” Trump noted from the podium at the White House. “In recent months, we’ve seen a handful of radical left judges effectively try to overrule the rightful powers of the president to stop the American people from getting the policies that they’ve voted for in record numbers. It was a grave threat to democracy.”

Trump specifically thanked Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who authored the opinion.

Barrett has drawn some ire from conservatives because she sometimes broke with Trump, who appointed her to the bench.

Asked about the conservative criticism of Barrett, Trump responded: “I don’t know about that. I just have great respect for her. I always have. And her decision was brilliantly written today.”

US CITIZENSHIP

Trump also continued to make the case for his Day 1 executive order that would deny citizenship to children born on U.S. soil to unlawful immigrants or those on a temporary immigrant status.

District court judges have said such a move would appear contrary to the text of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and legal precedent.

The Trump administration claimed in court proceedings that birthright citizenship creates a strong incentive for illegal immigration.

“They used birthright citizenship, some of the worst people, some of the cartels, to get people into our country,” Trump said on Friday, adding that the birthright was once meant for children from slaves.

However, the Supreme Court has not yet decided on that issue, and a ruling is expected in October.

Yet Trump seemed optimistic. “This was a big one, wasn’t it?” Trump said as he walked into the White House briefing room.

Standing beside him, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi shared Trump’s enthusiasm, telling reporters at Friday’s press conference: “Today, in the six-three opinion, Justice Barrett correctly holds that the district court lacks authority to enter nationwide or universal injunctions. These lawless injunctions gave relief to everyone in the world, instead of the parties before the court, as the Supreme Court held today, they turned district courts into the Imperial judiciary, active liberal justices.”

PRESIDENT’S AUTHORITY

She added: “It is the President’s authority under his executive branch to do everything to fight for the American people, and he will continue to do that. That’s why he was overwhelmingly elected.”

The Supreme Court also handed down opinions for other significant cases, such as backing a group of parents, including Christians, who want to opt out their children from reading LGBTQ+ books in classrooms.

At the center of the case are children’s books such as “Prince & Knight” and “Uncle Bobby’s Wedding,” introduced by Montgomery County Public Schools, located in the Washington, D.C., suburbs in 2022 as part of a broader so-called “ diversity initiative.”

In Uncle Bobby’s Wedding, a young girl worries that her relationship with her uncle will change after he marries another man.

Initially, the school system allowed parents to opt their children out of the lessons for religious or personal reasons.

However, that policy was reversed a year later, triggering widespread protests and eventually a lawsuit from a group of parents claiming their religious freedoms were being violated.
