Supreme Court Stuns Conservatives by Reversing DOGE Cuts

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : The judge averred that President Trump, despite his executive order, had "to honor the terms of contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, loans, and other federal foreign assistance awards that were in existence as of January 19, 2025."
52% : Two foreign aid contractors, the Global Health Council and the AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition, later sued for payment of some $2 billion for work already performed under the aegis of the United States Agency for International Development.
48% : The high court's move would appear to call into question other efforts by Mr. Trump and DOGE to "pause" or halt federal spending that was appropriated by the legislature, in a case that could have implications extending far beyond the $2 billion in this case.
19% : Justice Alito, joined by three colleagues on the bench, decries 'a most unfortunate misstep that rewards an act of judicial hubris.' "I am stunned," declares Justice Samuel Alito, dissenting in the Supreme Court's ruling against President Trump over spending foreign aid.
