Federal Judges Accused of 'Conspiring' Against Trump Immigration Policies

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has accused federal judges of engaging in "essentially conspiring" against the Trump administration's immigration policies, according to reports.

The accusations stem from private coordination among judges that DHS claims undermined efforts to enforce immigration laws. The specific details of this alleged coordination have not been fully disclosed.

This development comes amid ongoing legal challenges and political debates surrounding immigration enforcement in the United States. The Biden administration has faced its own set of challenges with border security and immigration policy.

Separately, a holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial has disputed fellow jurors' accounts. Meanwhile, Ed Sheeran's music has been removed from a radio station following a controversy involving Macklemore.
