Breaking - Federal judge overturns Trump's executive order targeting law firm Jenner & Block [View all]

https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/23/politics/jenner-and-block-executive-order

A federal judge on Friday struck down an executive order signed by President Donald Trump earlier this year targeting the law firm Jenner & Block, ruling the effort ran afoul of the Constitution’s First Amendment.

The decision from US District Judge John Bates in Washington, DC, represents the second time in recent weeks a judge has thwarted Trump’s attempt to retaliate against a top law firm.
