The Supreme Court has taken a series of inconsistent but notable steps to push back against the Trump administration, rejecting efforts to block census data releases and limiting the scope of a controversial asylum policy.

These developments underscore the high-stakes role of the judiciary in shaping policy during a contentious political era.
