'Utterly amazing': Trump stuns by running from one of his few successes while in office

President Donald Trump torpedoed his own Republican Party's moment this week by abruptly canceling the signing of a major housing bill that could have boosted the GOP ahead of midterms, The New York Times reported Thursday.Carl Hulse, New York Times chief Washington correspondent, revealed that the growing ruptures between Trump and Republicans "have crippled the G.O.P. at what should be the peak of its power." Trump instead signaled he would not sign the bill until Republicans passed his elections legislation, the SAVE America Act."Just as Republicans were pointing to the measure as proof that they could deliver big things with their majority, President Trump scuttled his party’s big moment by disparaging the legislation and refusing to sign it unless he got a new bill to impose voting restrictions," Hulse wrote."It was just the latest twist in an increasingly tortured relationship between Mr. Trump and his fellow Republicans, who were left dumbfounded and wondering if, for some reason, the president was trying to sabotage their chances in November and cost them their majorities," Hulse explained. "And it reflected how profoundly Mr. Trump had crippled his once vaunted governing trifecta, now all but paralyzed by his whipsawing demands and pronouncements."Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) commented on the moment."It’s utterly amazing," Schumer said. "Trump is running away from one of the very few accomplishments that could actually help the American people."Trump could still sign the housing legislation, Hulse added. But the repercussions could remain for GOP lawmakers, who were frustrated over the bill and left Washington, D.C. They will return in mid-July, "leaving multiple consequential matters hanging." "Mr. Trump may yet sign the legislation or allow it to become law, but he has already significantly diminished its political impact by dismissing it as minor, questioning its benefits and ditching the signing ceremony," Hulse wrote.

Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Just Got Two Big SCOTUS Wins

The Supreme Court has delivered President Trump two significant victories in his mass deportation campaign. On Thursday, the court’s conservative majority voted 6–3 in Mullin v. Al Otro Lado to approve a “metering” policy allowing Border Patrol agents to turn away migrants seeking asylum from the Mexican side of the southern border. The policy—introduced under the Obama administration and heavily expanded under Trump—will put the asylum hopes of hundreds of migrants and refugees at risk. “We hold that an alien who is standing in Mexico does not ‘arriv[e] in the United States’ by attempting, and failing, to set foot in this country. An alien ‘arrives in the United States’ only when he crosses the border,” Alito wrote in the majority opinion.In another 6–3 ruling, Mullin v. Doe, the conservative majority approved the Trump administration’s decision to end Temporary Protective Status for Haitian and Syrian immigrants, putting them at greater risk of being deported back to the dangerous situations they fled from under TPS. These are both countries that the State Department has deemed too dangerous for Americans to travel to. “The Supreme Court’s decision to strip TPS from Haitian and Syrian communities is a betrayal of our values and of the promise our country made to protect people from displacement and harm,” New York Attorney General Leticia James wrote after the ruling. “I’ll never stop fighting for our immigrant neighbors and loved ones.”
