The Supreme Court partially allowed President Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order on Friday in a decision that said universal injunctions likely exceed courts’ authority. The 6–3 decision didn’t offer a final ruling on the constitutionality of Trump’s attempt to limit birthright citizenship but instead focused on whether three nationwide injunctions blocking the policy could stand.

President Donald Trump confirmed a new trade agreement with Beijing on Thursday, but didn't go into the details. Trump told reporters the United States was starting to open up China. A White House official later clarified that the two countries had reached "an additional understanding for a framework to implement the Geneva agreement," which the two countries worked out in May.
