President Donald Trump celebrated a major Supreme Court victory that limits the ability of lower courts to issue nationwide injunctions—rulings that had previously blocked several of his administration’s executive actions. Speaking at the White House with Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Trump said the decision corrects what he called an overreach by lower court judges and a threat to democracy.

He claimed the ruling affirms his electoral mandate and allows his administration to advance its policies without judicial interference. Trump also announced that the administration will now move forward aggressively with efforts to end birthright citizenship. He argued that the 14th Amendment was originally intended only for the children of enslaved people, not for those seeking to gain citizenship by giving birth on U.S. soil. Trump called the practice a “scam” and said the Supreme Court decision clears the way for stricter immigration enforcement and reinterpretation of constitutional provisions.
