“The Supreme Court wrestled on Thursday with the Trump administration’s complaints that federal judges have exceeded their authority by temporarily blocking some of his policy moves for the whole country,” the New York Times reports.
“Several of the justices appeared torn between two concerns: They appeared skeptical that single district judges should have the power to freeze executive actions throughout the country.”
“But they also seemed troubled by the legality — and consequences — of the executive order underlying the case: An order issued by President Donald J. Trump on his first day in office ending birthright citizenship, or the practice of granting automatic citizenship to all babies born in the United States.”
