And another disgusting SCOTUS decision that will probably not get the attention it needs:

J. Gorsuch's opinion focuses on nationwide injunctions, but what's lost in all of that discussion is that the Trump Admin's new rule is at odds with over 100 years of consistent U.S. immigration policy. 1/2

the SCOTUS ruling is to lift the injunction that was put in place to hold off the rule until the appeal was ruled on.

The administration had asked the high court to let the rule go into effect even before the New York-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rules on Trump’s appeal of Daniels’ injunction against the rule. The 2nd Circuit is considering the matter on an expedited basis, with legal papers to be submitted by Feb. 14 and arguments to be held soon afterward.
