The US Supreme Court ended its latest term by delivering mixed rulings for President Donald Trump, rejecting his bid to limit birthright citizenship while expanding presidential powers in several other cases. The court blocked Trump's attempt to end automatic citizenship for children born in the US to undocumented migrants and temporary visitors. However, its conservative majority also backed broader executive authority, allowing presidents greater control over independent federal agencies and supporting parts of Trump's immigration agenda. Legal experts say the rulings strengthen the powers of future presidents, even as the court placed limits on some of Trump's most ambitious policies.
