Supreme Court Grants Trump’s Request to Withhold Aid

The Supreme Court has issued a ruling allowing Donald Trump to withhold a substantial portion of $4 billion in foreign aid funding. This allocation was earmarked for initiatives focused on bolstering food security in Chad, facilitating trade development, and providing support for individuals affected by torture. The funds are intended to contribute to sustainable development projects and humanitarian assistance efforts in the African nation. The Court’s decision involves a legal challenge concerning the administration’s interpretation of existing foreign aid agreements.
