A: Hey buddy! You heard about the big decision from the US Supreme Court?
B: No way, what's going on?
A: So, they said that judges can't issue these thingies called nationwide injunctions. Seems like Trump had a lot of his policies blocked by these injunctions.
B: Oh, really? What was this all about?
A: Well, it was about birthright citizenship. You know, the rule that if someone's born in the US, they automatically become a citizen, no matter their parents' status.
B: Ah, I remember now! Trump wanted to take away some parts of it, right?
A: Exactly! He signed an order on his first day as president to do that. The people he was aiming at were babies born to mothers in the country illegally or temporarily, and children whose fathers aren't US citizens or permanent residents.
B: And what does this Supreme Court decision mean for Trump's order?
A: It means federal judges can't issue rulings that apply nationwide right away. But they didn't say whether the order itself is constitutional or not. They just said it can't start until 30 days from now.
