Trump reshaped the Supreme Court. Now emergency appeals are helping him reshape the government
President Donald Trump has achieved significant victories in the Supreme Court during the first six months of his second term. The court, reshaped by three Trump appointees, has supported his administration on issues like immigration, federal employee dismissals and military policies. Critics highlight the administration’s use of emergency appeals to fast-track cases, often resulting in rulings without clear legal explanations. On Monday, the court approved a move to dismantle the Education Department, sparking dissent from liberal justices. Experts warn these actions could undermine lower courts and create irreversible changes before final rulings are made.
