Trump administration seeks Supreme Court order to keep $5 billion in aid frozen, facing legal challenge.

The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to freeze nearly $5 billion in foreign aid after a federal court ruled the move likely illegal. The case tests Trump's authority over federal spending, with nonprofits arguing it violates federal law and disrupts lifesaving programs. The Supreme Court must decide if the administration can use a rarely invoked "pocket rescission" method to withhold the funds without Congress's approval.
