Judge Dismisses Emoluments Case Against Trump

“A federal judge on Thursday dismissed a pair of lawsuits claiming that President Trump’s failure to divest himself of his real estate empire and other business holdings violated the Constitution’s provision banning receipt of foreign ‘emoluments’ while in public office,” Politico reports.

“U.S. District Court Judge George Daniels ruled that the two suits were fatally flawed because the plaintiffs failed to show injury directly related to the use of Trump’s properties by foreign officials and governments.”
