America's judicial system faces a constitutional showdown as the Supreme Court debates whether single federal judges can block presidential actions nationwide, focusing on Trump's birthright citizenship order rather than its actual merits. Politics crosses ideological lines as justices from both conservative and liberal wings express frustration about the proliferation of nationwide injunctions, with Trump facing 64 such injunctions during his first term compared to far fewer for previous presidents.

• Supreme Court justices debating whether lower courts can issue nationwide injunctions against presidential actions
• Elena Kagan questioning how to stop potentially illegal executive orders without nationwide injunctions
• Trump administration fighting against injunctions from judges in Maryland, Massachusetts, and Washington state
• Zelensky criticizing Putin for sending a low-level delegation to peace talks in Turkey
• Ukraine pushing for implementation of a US-proposed 30-day ceasefire
• Uber and DoorDash publicly supporting Trump's no-tax-on-tips proposal
• 40,000 DoorDash workers lobbying lawmakers to support the tax break
• House Ways and Means Committee approving Trump's budget bill after an all-night session
