The Supreme Court's ruling in the Trump v. CASA case was fundamentally about limiting federal judges' abilities to halt executive actions through nationwide injunctions. The 6-3 decision, while appearing to favor Trump, inadvertently enhanced both the Court's and Trump's power over lower court rulings. The ruling sidestepped the constitutionality of birthright citizenship, focusing instead on Trump's lawyers' aim to restrict judicial interference in executive decisions, thereby reinforcing a trend of expanding presidential authority, affecting issues from deportations to congressional funding.
It is very clear that in this and other cases, the Supreme Court has enhanced its own power and Trump's, as well, at the expense of lower-court judges.
The decision did not address the constitutionality of the administration's demand for an end to birthright citizenship but rather focused on curbing the authority of federal judges.
