US Supreme Court allows Trump's massive foreign aid freeze

The US Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to continue freezing over $4 billion in foreign aid, ruling that potential harm to foreign policy outweighs the potential harm to aid recipients. While this is a preliminary decision, three liberal justices dissented, arguing the freeze violates Congress's "power of the purse" and the separation of powers. The administration's cuts to foreign aid, including the dismantling of USAID, have drawn criticism and warnings of dire consequences for global health.
