The Trump administration has petitioned an appeals court to overturn a US judge's decision that blocked the president's order to freeze funding. This move aims to end what the administration calls 'judicial overreach'. The case has significant implications for the separation of powers and the role of the judiciary in checking executive authority. With the administration seeking to assert its authority, the appeals court's decision will be closely watched. Key issues at play include government funding, judicial review, and executive power.
