5. Supreme Court Torches Trump Administration During Birthright Citizenship Argument

In a pivotal moment of Donald Trump’s second term, the United States Supreme Court has turned a skeptical and, at times, blistering eye toward the administration’s stance on nationwide injunctions. While the central question of the case doesn't address the constitutionality of modifying the 14th Amendment—a long-shot goal of Trump—the real issue at stake is just as critical: Can federal judges block executive actions on a national scale?

This seemingly procedural question could have massive consequences. If the Trump administration gets its way, lower federal courts would no longer be able to issue rulings that halt policies nationwide. Instead, any injunction would only apply to the plaintiffs directly involved in a given case.

But during oral arguments, the justices—across ideological lines—showed deep reservations about such a sweeping restriction on judicial power. Justice Sonia Sotomayor cut to the heart of the issue with a dramatic hypothetical: if the government were to suddenly order the confiscation of all civilian firearms in direct violation of the Second Amendment, under the Trump view, courts couldn’t stop it with a nationwide injunction. "We couldn’t stop that?" she asked.

Justice Elena Kagan was even more blunt: "The government keeps losing. This is happening right now: Every court has ruled against you."
