NextImg:BREAKING: Supreme Court grants Trump’s request on foreign-aid spending in another victory – The Right Scoop

The Supreme Court has just agreed to stay a lower court ruling that blocked President Trump from freezing billions in foreign aid.

Specifically, John Roberts is the one who granted Trump’s request.

Via taxpayer-funded Politico:

Chief Justice John Roberts has revived President Donald Trump’s bid to slash $4 billion in foreign-aid funding without Congress’ approval, adding new urgency to a legal clash over the power of the purse.

In a one-page order Tuesday, Roberts granted the Trump administration’s request for a temporary hold on a lower court’s directive that officials prepare to spend the money by the end of the month — when the current budget cycle comes to a close. Aid groups sued earlier this year to force the administration to formally “obligate” the funds, amid signs that Trump intended to gut the congressionally approved foreign aid budget.

Roberts did not provide any explanation for his ruling, but it is likely to remain in place while the full court considers how to handle the emergency appeal the Justice Department filed Monday. That appeal seeks to set aside U.S. District Judge Amir Ali’s most recent ruling that the administration is acting illegally by refusing to ensure the money can be allocated by the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30.

Trump wins again, at least for now. We’ll see if the high court changes their mind, but I seriously doubt it. I expect he’ll win this one easily.
