Supreme Court lifts freeze, letting Trump's Texas border wall move forward
The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for President Donald Trump's Texas border wall, lifting a federal judge's injunction that had stopped construction. The unsigned order said the judge lacked the authority to block it and that the administration is 'exceedingly likely to prevail' — while the stalled work was burning $500,000 a day.

The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for President Donald Trump's border wall in Texas, lifting a federal judge's injunction that had frozen construction. The unsigned order found the judge had no authority to issue the block while the case plays out. The justices also wrote that the Trump administration is 'exceedingly likely to prevail' on that question.
The court attached a price tag to the delay: the injunction was costing the federal government half a million dollars a day. That money 'cannot be recouped,' the order noted — even if the administration eventually wins the underlying litigation.
The ruling doesn't settle the case. It only unfreezes construction while the ongoing legal fight continues, with the justices' finding on the judge's authority now on the record.
