Politico: “At least 225 judges have ruled in more than 700 cases that the administration’s new policy, which also deprives people of an opportunity to seek release from an immigration court, is a likely violation of law and the right to due process.”
“Those judges were appointed by all modern presidents — including 23 by Trump himself — and hail from at least 35 states… The number of judges opposing the administration’s position has more than doubled in less than a month.”
