- Maryland federal judges filed motion to dismiss Trump lawsuit against state judges — Federal judges in Maryland filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit by the Trump administration against all 15 of the state's judges, the court clerk, and the state US District Court, calling it a meritless "assault on the separation of powers." The motion noted that "this unprecedented lawsuit is fundamentally incompatible with the separation of powers." The suit came in response to an order blocking the administration from deporting immigrants in Maryland until at least 4 p.m. on the second day after they file a habeas corpus petition.
