"We’re seeing the fallout from executive orders now, and we know that it’s as widespread as stopping treatment for cancer patients and canceling job offers made to people who wanted to become public servants. It’s time for Americans, even the ones who supported Trump, to raise their voices and say they didn’t vote for any of this, before their voices don’t matter at all." - Joyce Vance

The #Trump admin filed a lawsuit against ALL 15 #FederalJudges in #Maryland over a #CourtOrder blocking the immediate #deportation of #immigrants challenging their removals, ratcheting up a fight w/the federal #judiciary over #Trump’s #ExecutivePower.
The remarkable action lays bare the admin’s determination to exert its will over #immigration enforcement as well as its exasperation w/ [the #law] judges who have blocked #lawless #ExecutiveBranch actions.
