Seven times federal judges ruled against the Trump admin this week
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Federal judges are continuing their pushback against the Trump administration by issuing orders blocking a number of actions, including the deportation of the family of Mohamed Soliman, who is facing a hate crime charge in the wake of a firebombing attack in Colorado.
The rulings – some from judges appointed under the Biden administration – come after White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said last week that «President Trump had more injunctions in one full month of office in February than Joe Biden had in three years.»
«The real constitutional crisis is taking place within our judicial branch, where district court judges in liberal districts across the country are abusing their power to unilaterally block President Trump’s basic executive authority,» Leavitt also has said.
Here are seven cases in which federal judges ruled against the Trump administration this week:
Deportation of Boulder attack suspect’s family is blocked, despite visa violations
A Biden administration-appointed federal judge in Colorado on Wednesday halted the deportation of the wife and five children of Mohamed Soliman, the Egyptian national under federal investigation for the Boulder firebombing attack on Sunday.
The temporary restraining order issued by U.S. District Judge Gordon P. Gallagher prevents federal immigration authorities from removing Soliman’s wife, Hayem El Gamal, and the couple’s five children from the country, at least for now.

The ruling will remain in effect until a scheduled hearing on June 13. It came after El Gamal’s friend, Susanna Dvortsin, sought emergency legal protection for the family and argued that they faced imminent deportation by the Trump administration without the opportunity to present their case in court.
According to Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin, citing sources, El Gamal and her five children have all overstayed their visas. However, an asylum application had already been submitted on their behalf by Soliman.
Judge rules against Trump administration twice in Abrego Garcia case
A federal judge granted a request Wednesday from more than a dozen major news outlets and publishers to unseal certain records in the case of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, the Salvadorian migrant and alleged MS-13 member who was deported from Maryland to El Salvador in March in what administration officials have acknowledged was an administrative error.
Separately on Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis granted a request from Abrego Garcia’s legal team to file a motion for sanctions against the Trump administration.
The one-two punch from Xinis could give plaintiffs new ammunition to pursue more formal punishments against the Trump administration if officials are found to have been acting in bad faith or knowingly defying court orders. The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to «facilitate» Abrego Garcia’s return to the U.S.
Effort to pull funding from local governments is slapped with a preliminary injunction
A federal judge in Washington state on Tuesday granted Denver and other local governments a preliminary injunction against the Trump administration’s threats to withhold federal funding for transportation programs.
Denver and dozens of other plaintiffs filed the lawsuit in May, claiming that the Trump administration’s threats to withhold an estimated $4 billion in critical federal grants exceed the Executive Branch’s authority and were thereby «unlawful and politically motivated funding conditions,» according to the injunction order.

The judge ruled that the Trump administration likely violated the Separation of Powers doctrine, and that its threats to cut funding constitute harm.
Trump administration ordered to restore funding to Clinton-era agency that gutted by DOGE
A federal judge on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to restore millions of dollars in grant funding for AmeriCorps and to reemploy thousands of employees, ruling that the administration’s abrupt dismantling of the organization violated federal law.
U.S. District Judge Deborah Boardman agreed to reinstate thousands of terminated AmeriCorps employees across 24 U.S. states and D.C., which sued the administration earlier this year over the steep cuts to the agency ordered by the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE.
FEDERAL JUDGE RULES AGAINST TRUMP ORDER HALTING SEX CHANGE PROCEDURES IN PRISONS
She also ordered the Trump administration to restore hundreds of millions of dollars in congressionally approved funding for AmeriCorps programs, which were also slashed by DOGE earlier this year.
Judge halts Trump administration’s moves to close Job Corps centers across nation
A federal judge on Wednesday issued a temporary restraining order that stops the Trump administration from closing Job Corps centers.
The motion, filed by the National Job Corps Association, was to stop the Department of Labor’s closure of 99 Job Corps campuses nationwide, according to a news release.

Job Corps was created by Congress in 1964 and allows 16- to 24-year-olds from disadvantaged backgrounds to obtain high school diplomas or an equivalent, vocational certificates and licenses, and on-the-job training. The program currently serves about 25,000 people at 120 Job Corps centers run by contractors.
When the Department of Labor announced it was pausing Job Corps center operations, it said the program was not cost-effective, had a low graduation rate and was not placing participants in stable jobs. The department also said there had been thousands of instances of violence, drug use and security breaches at Job Corps centers.
Judge tells ICE not to remove trans migrant seeking asylum from Washington detention facility
A federal judge in Oregon on Tuesday issued an order barring U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from removing a Mexican asylum seeker from a Washington detention facility, according to local reports.
The migrant, a 24-year-old transgender woman identified as «O-J-M» in court documents, was arrested outside a Portland courtroom on Monday and transferred to the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington.
U.S. District Court Judge Amy Baggio, a President Joe Biden appointee, also demanded that ICE provide the exact date and time of the removal from Portland and explain why it was deemed immediately necessary.
ICE is prevented from detaining Columbia University student
A federal judge on Thursday issued a fresh order blocking ICE from arresting Yunseo Chung, a 21-year-old Columbia University student whom the Trump administration is seeking to deport back to South Korea after she participated in an anti-Israel protest earlier this year, according to the Washington Post.
The newspaper reported that federal agents first sought to detain Chung in March, yet were unable to locate her. She then sued to block them from doing so.

«This is a win not just for Yunseo and for the legions of people who stand up for Palestinians and oppose the daily atrocities in Gaza that our government underwrites, but also for freedom of speech and the rule of law in our country,» Ramzi Kassem, co-director of CLEAR, a legal nonprofit at City University of New York that is representing Chung, told the Washington Post.

Nuevo golpe de Ucrania a Rusia: una fábrica química clave para municiones se incendió tras el impacto de un dron
Una planta química clave para la fabricación de explosivos en la región rusa de Tula se incendió en las primeras horas del domingo tras ser impactada por un dron ucraniano, marcando el segundo ataque contra esta instalación estratégica en apenas dos semanas, según informaron autoridades rusas.
El gobernador regional Dmitri Miliáyev confirmó que el incendio en la planta química Azot se desató después de que los restos de un dron ucraniano derribado cayeran sobre la fábrica de nitrógeno y amoníaco, ubicada aproximadamente 200 kilómetros al sur de Moscú. “El fuego fue sofocado”, declaró Miliáyev en un mensaje de Telegram, añadiendo que dos personas resultaron heridas durante el incidente, aunque sus vidas no corren peligro.
La instalación, situada en Novomoskovsk, Tula, representa uno de los mayores fabricantes químicos de Rusia y el segundo mayor productor de amoníaco y fertilizantes nitrogenados del país. Su producción incluye nitrato de amonio, un ingrediente clave en la fabricación de explosivos; metanol, que puede servir como base para combustible de cohetes; y argón, utilizado en la metalurgia de defensa.
Según testigos presenciales citados por canales de Telegram rusos, se escucharon entre cinco y ocho explosiones fuertes durante el ataque nocturno.
El canal de Telegram ucraniano Exilenova+ suguirió que el impacto alcanzó el área de acceso a la tubería principal de la planta, no las unidades de procesamiento directamente. Un trabajador de la planta, en un video supuestamente filmado en el sitio, declaró: “Básicamente, golpeó una tubería — una de gas, una línea de propano.”
El ataque del domingo representa la segunda vez en dos semanas que drones ucranianos impactan la instalación Azot. El ataque previo ocurrió el 24 de mayo, cuando drones alcanzaron una tubería de gas de baja presión en el taller número 4, dañando dos tanques de ácido nítrico de 750 toneladas. Uno de los tanques derramó su contenido al suelo, lo que provocó el cierre completo de la instalación.
La planta Azot representa un objetivo estratégico crucial para las fuerzas ucranianas debido a su papel en la producción de defensa rusa. Según Reuters, Azot suministra materias primas a la planta Sverdlov en la región de Nizhny Novgorod para su uso en la fabricación de compuestos explosivos como HMX y RDX para municiones de artillería.
La compañía también produce cloro, plásticos, resinas, soda cáustica, cloruro de calcio y ácido nítrico, todos componentes esenciales para la industria de defensa rusa.
Las autoridades de Tula confirmaron que el Servicio ruso de protección al consumidor (Rospotrebnadzor) y entidades ecologistas locales están monitoreando la posible contaminación ambiental tras el incendio en la planta química, sin detectar hasta el momento niveles de contaminación superiores a la norma.
El ataque a la planta Azot formó parte de una ofensiva nocturna más amplia de Ucrania contra territorio ruso. El Ministerio de Defensa ruso informó haber derribado un total de 65 drones ucranianos sobre siete regiones rusas y la península anexionada de Crimea durante las operaciones que se extendieron desde las 23:00 hora de Moscú del sábado hasta las 09:00 del domingo.
Los ataques obligaron a tres aeropuertos de Moscú — Domodédovo, Zhukovski y Vnúkovo — a suspender temporalmente sus operaciones, según informó el alcalde de Moscú, Serguéi Sobianin. Los servicios de monitoreo de drones reportaron que Moscú fue atacada desde tres direcciones por el sur y el oeste.
Paralelamente, el sábado drones ucranianos también atacaron una planta de producción de betún cerca de la refinería de Lukoil en Kstovo, en la región de Nizhny Novgorod, aproximadamente 800 kilómetros de Ucrania. El Ministerio de Situaciones de Emergencia ruso confirmó un incendio mayor, señalando que “unidades de producción de betún con un volumen total de 200 metros cúbicos están ardiendo.”
Los ataques marcan la reanudación de la campaña ucraniana contra instalaciones de almacenamiento y procesamiento de combustible rusas, después de una pausa de varios meses y de la exitosa “Operación Telaraña” que golpeó varias bases aéreas rusas.
El viernes 6 de junio, Ucrania atacó el depósito de combustible Kristall de Rosrezerv en Engels, región de Saratov, donde se almacena combustible de aviación para bombarderos estratégicos rusos.
El ataque previo de este tipo había ocurrido el 18 de marzo, cuando drones ucranianos atacaron la terminal de transbordo de petróleo Kavkaz en la región de Krasnodar.
Los ataques se producen en un momento de intensificación del conflicto, con Rusia reportando el domingo que sus fuerzas habían avanzado por primera vez hacia la región industrial oriental de Dnipropetrovsk de Ucrania, marcando una escalada territorial significativa.
El Ministerio de Defensa ruso declaró que fuerzas de una unidad de tanques habían “alcanzado la frontera occidental de la República Popular de Donetsk y continúan desarrollando una ofensiva en la región de Dnipropetrovsk.”

Bold move to keep Americans safe from ‘terrorists’ is basis for US travel ban for some African nations
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump’s restrictions on travel from 10 African countries are being praised by analysts for improving U.S. security internationally and domestically.
The president said on X the travel ban was being introduced after a terror attack against a pro-Israel group advocating for Hamas to release Israeli hostages in Boulder, Colorado, last weekend, allegedly by an Egyptian man who had overstayed his visa.
In a White House fact sheet, Trump said, «We will restore the travel ban, some people call it the Trump travel ban, and keep the radical Islamic terrorists out of our country.»

This point was backed by the State Department’s principal deputy spokesperson, Tommy Pigott. In a briefing Thursday, Pigott said, «This is a national security imperative».
But observers believe there is an external, international reason.
«Most, if not all, of the African countries were added to this list either because of extreme instability and thus terrorist havens or because relations between them and the U.S. is either extremely poor or non-existent,» Bill Roggio, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and editor of FDD’s Long War Journal, told Fox News Digital.
«For instance, the U.S. has been historically hard on Eritrea for its human rights abuses and also alleged support for terrorism. While in Chad, its military regime kicked the U.S. military out of its territory last year, further hurting the U.S. military posture in Africa.»

SOMALIA
The world’s two principal Islamist terror groups, ISIS and al Qaeda, represented here by Al-Shabaab, both operate openly in Somalia. The White House described it this week as «a terrorist safe haven.»
A briefing note accompanying the travel ban declared, «A persistent terrorist threat emanates from Somalia’s territory. Somalia also remains a destination for individuals attempting to join terrorist groups that threaten the national security of the United States.»
The U.S. Africa Command mounted five air attacks against operators from both groups in just the 12 days up to June 2.
LIBYA
Fighting and subsequent piles of bodies in the streets have been reported in the past month in Tripoli, the Libyan capital. The U.N.’s Support Mission in Libya recently posted on X that the situation could «spiral out of control.»
«The historical terrorist presence within Libya’s territory amplifies the risks posed by the entry into the United States of its nationals,» the White House note states, adding U.S. border officials can’t properly vet Libyans because «there is no competent or cooperative central authority for issuing passports or civil documents in Libya.»
SUDAN

The U.S. has already imposed sanctions against the leaders of both parties involved in a two-year civil war that has reportedly killed 150,000 and displaced 12 million. The U.S. claims up to 28% of Sudanese overstay their visas.
ERITREA
The criminal records of Eritreans are not available for inspection by U.S. officials. With an overstay rate of up to 55%, the White House also reported that «Eritrea has historically refused to accept back its removable nationals.»

CHAD
The West African country is causing concern in Washington as it deepens relations with Russia. Chad President Idriss Deby went to Moscow last year for talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Kremlin Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was then warmly welcomed in Chad’s capital, N’Djamena, for a reciprocal visit. Russia’s shadowy Wagner private mercenary group’s importance in the country is being questioned after three of its members were arrested in September and sent back to Moscow.

Banning nationals this week, the U.S. said Chad has had a visa overstay rate of up to 55%. In Chad, President Deby responded by saying, «I have instructed the government to act in accordance with the principles of reciprocity and suspend the issuance of visas to U.S. citizens.»
EQUATORIAL GUINEA
People from this West African country have reportedly overstayed their F, M and J visas by up to 70%.
REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO
Depending on the visa category, up to 35% of citizens in the U.S. are reported to have overstayed their visas.
Overstaying is the main issue for the other African countries whose nationals are partially restricted and now have only limited entry into the U.S.
SIERRA LEONE
Has an overstay rate of up to 35%, and, the White House says, «has historically failed to accept back its removable nationals.»

TOGO
Togo suffers from poor governance, nepotism and widespread corruption, which reportedly goes all the way to the president’s office. Over 50% of the population lives below what’s regarded as the international poverty line. Togo’s nationals have an overstay rate of up to 35% in the U.S.
BURUNDI
Burundi vies with South Sudan for the dubious title of poorest country in the world. Yet soaring inflation has caused a devastating rise in food prices. A former rebel group has led the country for two decades in an climate of political unrest and alleged repression. Burundi’s citizens have an overstay rate of up to 17% in the U.S.

‘Right down the line’: Medicaid reform in ‘big, beautiful bill’ divides lawmakers by party
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Medicaid reform in President Donald Trump’s «big, beautiful bill» has drawn a partisan line through Congress.
Democrats have railed against potential Medicaid cuts since Trump was elected, while Republicans have celebrated Medicaid reform through the reconciliation process as an efficient way to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse in the welfare program.
Fox News Digital asked lawmakers from both ends of the political spectrum to react to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act’s Medicaid reform. The results were as expectedly divided.
«This is all B.S., what the Democrats are doing,» Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., told Fox News Digital. «They’re pushing the agenda that we’re cutting 10 million people off Medicaid. It’s people that actually shouldn’t be on it, illegals that shouldn’t be on it. We’re reforming it.»
GOP RAILS AGAINST ‘BLATANTLY FALSE’ DEM CLAIMS ABOUT MEDICAID REFORM IN TRUMP’S ‘BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL’

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), a nonpartisan federal agency that has been ridiculed by Republicans, estimated this week that Trump’s «big, beautiful bill» would leave 10.9 million people without health insurance, including 1.4 million who are in the country without legal status in state-funded programs.
But Republicans are holding firm in their defense of Medicaid reform, which Republicans say only cuts benefits to illegal immigrants, those ineligible to receive benefits who are currently receiving benefits, duplicate enrollees in one or more states and those who are able but choosing not to work.
«The people who would not continue to get Medicaid benefits under this bill were not qualified to get them in the first place,» Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., told Fox News Digital.
TRUMP’S ‘BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL’ FACES RESISTANCE FROM REPUBLICAN SENATORS OVER DEBT FEARS

Democrats continue to sound off on the healthcare threat of eliminating 10 million people from Medicaid. Not a single House Democrat voted to pass Trump’s championed legislation, which includes fulfilling key campaign promises like cutting taxes, immigration reform and American energy production.
«These burdensome regulatory requirements for proving that somebody has obtained or sought work are going to mean millions of people will go without healthcare, and the restrictions on food assistance are equally an obstacle to people meeting their everyday needs,» Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said.
Blumenthal added he is «very, very concerned about these seemingly cruel and unproductive ways of raising money simply to finance tax cuts» for «wealthy billionaires.»
New Jersey Democratic Sen. Andy Kim said he is happy to have an «honest conversation» about government efficiency and saving taxpayer dollars, but that’s not the reality of this bill.

«People are struggling, and I feel like, in the richest, most powerful country in the world, we should be able to make sure that people can have the basic needs they need to be able to survive,» Kim said of Medicaid and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.
Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., told Fox News Digital there is «nothing beautiful» about Trump’s «big, beautiful bill.»
«This is horrific, and it adds massive amounts to our debt, compromising our ability to [fund] the fundamentals in the future, foundations for families to thrive — health care, housing, education, good-paying jobs. That’s what we should be doing here, not doing massive tax cuts for billionaires and paying for them by tearing down programs for ordinary families,» Merkley said.

The national debt stands at more than $36.2 trillion as of June 5, according to the Fox Business, based on data from the Treasury Department.
The CBO’s report this week also estimated Trump’s bill will cut taxes by $3.7 trillion while raising deficits by $2.4 trillion over a decade.
