WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Friday handed a major win to the Trump administration by allowing it to take steps to implement its proposal to end automatic birthright citizenship.
In a 6-3 vote, the court granted a request by the Trump administration to narrow the scope of nationwide injunctions imposed by judges so that they apply only to states, groups and individuals that sued.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
This is the best immigration news yet. Forced deportation is expensive and time consuming. Cut off the spigot, give them no reason to stay here and they will go home on their own.

YES ! YES ! YES !
6 to the 3 morons.
New Dem strategy: There are 94 federal judicial districts in the U.S. Instead of shopping for one liberal judge who in the past was solely applying a nationwide injunction, we will now find individuals in each of the 94 federal judicial districts, each petitioning for the same type of injunction. Result: Nationwide or near nationwide injunctions via 94 petitions.
Wait and watch. These dem fed. dist. court pol hacks will ignore the decision and continue to issue imperial decrees.
SEE: DC v. Heller
No, I think it’s over. The democrats know that they can rest easy though. They will always have the republican party. The republican Senate and democrat Parliamentarian are only too happy to help them defeat Trump’s legislative agenda.
This court has made the most impactful decisions since Dred Scot.
