On November 9, the Supreme Court paused an injunction halting border-wall construction in the Big Bend Sector, allowing the Trump administration to resume work.1
The Court said the government was likely to prevail: the waiver law permits only constitutional challenges, while this argument concerned statutory authority.1
The pictured sentence grants an interim stay, pending a timely request for further review. It does not prove construction has restarted.1
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson would have denied the stay.1
Bloomboff's take
The legal roadblock is down for now. That matters without pretending the litigation is finished.
