A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from carrying out fast-track deportations of people detained far from the southern border, removing, for now, one of the cornerstones of President Trump’s campaign to carry out mass deportations.
A federal judge on Friday said she would consider a request over the coming days to temporarily block the Trump administration from removing Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, while her lawsuit challenging the dismissal proceeds.
Guess the president will be busy on social media this weekend.
