The Trump administration suffered three legal defeats within hours on Friday as opposition to its policies continues to be channeled through the courts.
In Washington, D.C., a federal judge rejected the administration's attempt to overturn her initial May 19 ruling that the U.S. Institute of Peace must be returned to the control of its original board, while an executive order targeting law firm Jenner & Block was ruled unconstitutional. Simultaneously, in Massachusetts, a judge ruled that the removal of articles from a federal government hosted patient-safety resource in response to Trump's executive order on "gender ideology" violated the First Amendment and must be reversed.
