The Supreme Court's recent term, ending in late June, is described as one of the most historic and consequential in decades, heavily influenced by significant disputes involving Donald Trump. The court addressed major issues including Trump's global tariff program, his efforts to control independent agencies, and the birthright citizenship case.
“Frankly, it's one of the most historic and consequential terms that the Supreme Court has had in decades.”
“The court's docket was dominated by really significant Trump-related disputes. The court weighed in on Trump's global tariff program. It weighed in on his bid to exert control over formerly independent agencies. And finally, today, in its last opinion of the term before the justices rose for their summer recess, it ruled on birthright citizenship.”
