U.S. courts issued four rulings today, two favorable and two unfavorable to former President Trump. The U.S. Supreme Court overturned longstanding federal limits on coordinated spending between parties and candidates, a decision likely to increase partisan spending and could aid Republican prospects in the November midterms.
