There are also several cases before the court this term that relate to some of the culture war issues that Trump continues to talk about.

In the fall, the court heard arguments in a case related to a ban on so-called conversion therapy in Colorado.

And next week, the court is scheduled to hear arguments in two cases related to whether transgender women and girls should be allowed to participate in women's and girls sports.

Carrie, what should we know about these cases?

And President Trump talks about men and women's sports, as he says, all of the time and says that this is a, you know, a losing issue for Democrats.

He says it's such a good issue for Republicans.

He said yesterday, I think that they should save it and bring it up right before the midterms.

You know, Mara, there is a conservative majority on the Supreme Court.

President Trump

has in this term especially shown himself very willing to push the limits of his power to try to assert as much executive authority as possible, even if there's a question about whether the law is on his side.

How are you thinking about this year and this court in that context?

And I think another question that hasn't really been tested yet in this presidency, I mean, I guess it's been sort of poked at, but will President Trump follow court orders?

So far, the administration...

has with with some limited exceptions but if it is something that really matters to him is he going to obey orders as as he has said he will or and and just accept the defeat or or will something else happen

And we will be watching.

Let's leave it there for today.

As we said, the court has a decision day on Friday.

So stand by for news.
