NextImg:BREAKING: Supreme Court just handed Trump another victory over lower court judges – The Right Scoop

The Supreme Court just handed President Trump another victory over lower court judges, allowing his administration to freeze grant money aimed at teachers over DEI concerns.

It was a tight ruling, with only five of the six “conservative” justices siding with President Trump.

Here’s the news via The Hill:

A divided Supreme Court sided with the Trump administration by allowing officials to block $65 million in teacher development grants frozen over concerns they were promoting diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices.

The 5-4 emergency ruling, for now, lifts a lower order that allowed the Education Department to resume the grants in eight Democratic-led states that are suing.

Five of the court’s six conservatives sided with the administration to grant the request. Chief Justice John Roberts and the court’s three liberal justices dissented.

The decision is not a final ruling in the case, and the dispute could ultimately return to the Supreme Court.

In February, the administration began canceling disbursements under two federal education grants aimed at developing educators and combatting teacher shortages: the Teacher Quality Partnership Program and the Supporting Effective Educator Development Program.

Officials have cast the freezes as part of the administration’s broader crackdown on DEI, and it also comes as Trump and Education Secretary Linda McMahon look to effectively gut the department.

U.S. District Judge Myong Joun, an appointee of former President Obama who serves in Boston, issued a March 10 temporary restraining order mandating the administration immediately resume the grant programs in the eight states.

The Trump administration’s Supreme Court emergency appeal comes after a three-judge panel on the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declined to lift Joun’s ruling. The administration has filed a series of such applications urging the justices to rein in lower courts that have blocked Trump’s policies.

I’m glad the high court went Trump’s way this time, because I guarantee you his concerns over the money being spent on DEI are justified.
