“These are far from the only cases filed to challenge Trump’s presidential authority since he took office less than three weeks ago. The legal system is about to be clogged with multiple battles over his second presidency. But they are among the most significant early tests of the judiciary’s capacity to constrain what many experts see as blatantly unconstitutional acts that have the capacity to fundamentally change the presidency and the political system.”
