“A familiar pattern has emerged since President Donald Trump returned to the White House less than three weeks ago: He makes a brash proposal, his opponents file a lawsuit and a federal judge puts the plan on hold,” the AP reports.
“It’s happened with Trump’s attempts to freeze certain federal funding, undermine birthright citizenship and push out government workers.”
“Now the question is whether the court rulings are a mere speed bump or an insurmountable roadblock for the Republican president, who is determined to expand the limits of his power — sometimes by simply ignoring the laws.”
