The Supreme Court gave President Donald Trump’s efforts to curtail immigration a major boost Thursday, handing down a ruling that could allow the administration to deport millions of immigrants who have been living the United States lawfully. It also ruled that the administration can revive a policy blocking migrants from entering the United States to seek asylum.
