The Supreme Court’s decision in the case marks a significant victory for the Trump administration, which had seen some of its policy efforts thwarted by nationwide curbs.

The injunctions have seen fierce legal wrangling over the last few months over a range of policies and orders stemming from the White House, including efforts to slash government spending and redefine US immigration policies and procedures.

The decision will almost certainly have an impact, with the president now feeling more confident that the executive orders signed at the White House can be applied in practice without being stopped by these sorts of injunctions.

It will also set an important precedent for future administrations.

We haven’t heard from Trump directly today – yet – but we notably heard from Attorney General Pam Bondi, who said the decision would stop the “endless barrage” of injunctions against the president.

President Trump has no public events until 1500 EST/2100 GMT, when he is scheduled to meet the foreign ministers of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

That event is open to the White House press pool, meaning there will be an opportunity for questions.

It would be surprising, however, if he does not post on Truth Social before then.
