A divided Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration must pay out nearly $2 billion in foreign assistance funds to nonprofit aid groups.

A sharply divided Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled that the Trump administration must comply with a district court order and pay out nearly $2 billion in foreign assistance funds to nonprofit aid groups for work already completed on the government’s behalf.

The court ruled 5-4 with Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett siding with the liberal justices.

    This freeze hurt private companies.

    And everyone knows that companies are a higher class citizen than people, so the court defended the companies.

      The Supreme Court also desperately wants to uphold the make-believe idea that they are legitimate. Which means they might occasionally rule against Trump just to support that narrative.
