Appeals court refuses to lift block on Trump's order restricting birthright citizenship

Birthight citizenshipA federal appeals court continued Tuesday to block President Donald Trump’s order to end automatic citizenship to children born to two parents who are not legally authorized to be in the country, another setback for his top priority of strengthening immigration enforcement.

The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals covering New England became the nation's second federal appeals court to refuse Trump’s request to allow his order to take effect while the case is litigated, after the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals along the West Coast. Trump has said he expects to eventually win the legal dispute at the Supreme Court.

A three-judge appeals panel refused to overturn the lower-court's injunction, which found the states were likely to succeed in proving the order violated the Constitution and that the children at stake would be irreparably harmed.

Drawing huge crowds, Bernie Sanders steps into leadership of the anti-Trump resistance

Bernie Sanders

Bernie Sanders is standing alone on the back of a pickup truck shouting into a bullhorn.

He’s facing several hundred ecstatic voters huddled outside a suburban Detroit high school — the group that did not fit inside the high school’s gym or two overflow rooms. The crowd screams in delight when he tells them that a combined total of 9,000 people had shown up for the rally.

“What all of this tells me, is not just in Michigan or in Vermont, the people of this country will not allow us to move toward oligarchy. They will not allow Trump to take us into authoritarianism,” Sanders yelled. “We’re prepared to fight. And we’re going to win.”

Trump Confirms ICE Arrested Palestinian Columbia Graduate Over Political Speech

Mahmoud KhalilPresident Donald Trump confirmed Monday that federal immigration agents arrested and detained Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist and recent Columbia University graduate who was taken this weekend — despite being a permanent legal resident of the United States — for helping peacefully lead antiwar protests on campus last year.

Despite not having a warrant, plainclothes agents abducted Khalil Saturday night as he returned to his university-owned apartment with his wife, a U.S. citizen who is eight months pregnant. Agents claimed they were revoking Syrian-born Khalil’s green card and also threatened to detain his wife, according to a habeas corpus petition his attorney Amy Greer filed on his behalf.

US taxpayers have shelled out tens of millions of dollars for Trump’s golf trips

US taxpayers have shelled out millions for Trsump golf trips

It has become a familiar routine for the Palm Beach county sheriff, Ric Bradshaw, and his deputies. Almost every Tuesday in recent weeks, the Federal Aviation Administration has posted to its website a formal “notice to airmen” advising of upcoming flight restrictions over south Florida, signaling once again to those who must protect him that Donald Trump is on his way to Mar-a-Lago for another weekend of golf.

The president is at his waterfront mansion again this weekend, his sixth visit to Florida and the beloved golf courses he owns since his 20 January inauguration.

His increasingly frequent and disruptive trips home are fast becoming a drain on county resources, obligating Bradshaw to put helicopters in the air, extra manpower on the ground, and boats on both sides of Trump’s opulent mansion sandwiched between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal Waterway almost continuously.

Civicus, an international non-profit organization dedicated to “strengthening citizen action and civil society around the world”, announced the inclusion of the US on the non-profit’s first watchlist of 2025 on Monday, alongside the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Italy, Pakistan and Serbia.

The watchlist is part of the Civicus Monitor, which tracks developments in civic freedoms across 198 countries. Other countries that have previously been featured on the watchlist in recent years include Zimbabwe, Argentina, El Salvador and the United Arab Emirates.

Social Security Administration bans reading ‘general news’ at work

Social Security: no geneeral newsThe Social Security Administration (SSA) has banned reading “general news” websites at work, The Hill has learned.

“Social Security employees should be focused on mission-critical work and serving the American people,” a Social Security spokesperson said in a statement emailed to The Hill on Thursday.

“Therefore, we implemented additional restrictions to the categories of websites prohibited from government-furnished equipment, including online shopping, general news, and sports. Employees may request an exception if they have a business need for job-specific duties,” the spokesperson continued.

NBC News and The Washington Post both reported previously that there was an SSA email discussing employee website bans including for “general news,” which was confirmed by the statement for the agency.

Three top federal prosecutors resign after refusing to drop Adams charges

Danielle SassoonThe top federal prosecutor in New York and two senior federal prosecutors in Washington have resigned after refusing to follow a Justice Department order to drop the corruption charges against New York City mayor Eric Adams, multiple officials said Thursday.

The resignations amount to a stunning public rebuke of the new Justice Department leadership under the Trump administration in one of the country's most high-profile criminal cases.

The departures come after Emil Bove, the acting U.S. deputy attorney general, issued a memo Monday ordering federal prosecutors in New York to drop the case against Adams arguing, in part, that it hampered his ability to tackle “illegal immigration and violent crime."
