Divided Supreme Court says judge can force Trump administration to pay foreign aid

A federal judge in D.C. had ordered the money to begin flowing last week , after the Trump administration appeared to flout an earlier ruling that said a 90-day freeze on all foreign aid was imposed too hastily and should be lifted for now.

The 5 -4 decision was the first major test before the Supreme Court of Trump’s blitz of executive orders and firings in the opening weeks of his presidency.

The Supreme Court was only considering whether to delay the Feb. 26 deadline, not the merits of a broader temporary restraining order.

That order bars the government from freezing a wider range of payments and taking other steps to dismantle USAID .

Global health groups are arguing that the government is ignoring the broader order.

They sued after Trump paused foreign aid for 90 days on his first day in office.
