The top court in the US has ruled judges in lower courts have limited ability to block presidential orders, giving President Donald Trump what he called a "giant win".
The case surrounded whether Trump's attempt to use an executive order to end birthright citizenship for non-citizens and undocumented migrants was allowed.
In a 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court's conservative justices sided with Trump and said they were not addressing Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship. Rather their ruling addressed presidential actions broadly.
