Just read Article Two of the US Constitution. Actually, read only the first sentence thereof.
Then you will understand this:
The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration on Friday to hold back $4 billion in foreign aid funds....
“[O]n the record before the Court, the asserted harms to the Executive’s conduct of foreign affairs appear to outweigh the potential harm faced by respondents,” the Supreme Court’s order states....
IOW, the President conducts foreign affairs. Congress does NOT conduct foreign affairs.
Game. Set. Match.
More to follow on Article Two, Sentence One, as SCOTUS grinds through another year.

This order should NOT be read as a final determination on the merits,” it continues. “The relief granted by the Court today reflects our preliminary view, consistent with the standards for interim relief.”
