Supreme Court Justices Barrett and Roberts Challenge Trump Administration Policies

Two conservative justices appointed by Trump have joined liberal colleagues in key rulings limiting presidential power and budget measures.

Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett sided with liberal justices to block Trump's attempt to freeze $2 billion in foreign aid.
The decision marks the second time this year the Supreme Court has limited Trump's executive authority, following a prior refusal to immediately allow the firing of the special counsel.
Barrett and Roberts have faced backlash from conservative circles, with critics accusing them of undermining the president's agenda.
The rulings highlight a cautious approach by the court's conservative majority in cases involving sweeping expansions of presidential power.
Trump's broader agenda, including aggressive immigration reforms and economic measures, faces increasing challenges in both public opinion and institutional checks.
