Trump demands ‘full throated apology’ from Maine governor over trans athlete dispute: Live updates

Advocates for Donald Trump’s administration are considering whether his appeal to an 18th-century War Act allows federal law enforcement to enter homes without a warrant.

The president deployed the foreign enemies Act to quickly deport the alleged members of the Tren de Aragua gang of Venezuela, without proper process, a foreign terrorist organization. However, officials have acknowledged that many of the immigrants who flew to a prison in El Salvador last weekend do not have criminal records.

Trump only trusts the law for the fourth time in American history. It was recently used to keep Japanese Americans, including American citizens, during World War II.

“Terrorists can’t hide behind closed doors,” an official at the Justice Department said in a statement to The independent From the White House.

President Trump demanded that the governor of Maine Janet Mills apologize after clashing with him during a governor’s meeting in the White House about the fact that transgender athletes could compete.

“While the state Maine apologized for the strong but completely wrong, but completely wrong, a statement about men playing in women’s sports at the White House Governor’s Conference, we did not hear about the governor ourselves, and she is the one who matters in such cases,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Department of Education found that Maine violated the protection of title IX by allowing a transgender girl to play in women’s and girls sports. This comes after Trump signed an executive order that prohibited trans athletes from participating in the team that matched their gender identity.

At the heat meeting last month, Mills told the president: ‘We will see you in court’ after colliding with the issue.

“That’s why we need a complete excuse from the governor himself, and a statement that she will never make such an illegal challenge for the federal government again before this case can be settled,” Trump wrote.

The Department of Home Security said it would recall legal protection for about 532,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguane and Venezola’s that came to the United States since October 2022 under a humanitarian parole program.

Kristi cites, secretary of homeland safety, said they will lose legal protection on April 24 – 30 after the publication of the notice in the federal register.

Under the humanitarian program, migrants could legally come to the US if they were of war -torn countries or those facing political instability.

Here are some highlights:

During a high trial of Donald Trump’s use of an age-old war law to quickly deport the suspected Venezuelan gang members, a federal judge advocates for the Department of Justice for their ‘Intoated and Disregard Language’ on their answers to court orders.

Trump and his allies threatened to put on Judge James Boasberg after temporarily blocking the administration to deport immigrants under the foreign enemies Act and question whether the government deliberately converted its court orders before emptying dozens of people in a prison in El Salvador last week.

Despite the pressure of food banks, they find themselves, with the funding of the pandemic and inflation high, the US Department of Agriculture has chosen to interrupt and review existing programs, which canceled about $ 500 million to deliveries.

Such a break can have serious consequences for people who rely on food banks – one in six Americans – and especially those in rural areas.

Food banks across the country – which are already facing large cuts of locally grown food aid – have learned this week that the US Department of Agriculture is canceling $ 500 million from expected food deliveries, further disrupting the help at a time when the need continues to increase.

Vince Hall, head of government relations at Feeding America, the country’s largest hunger relief organization, said some local food banks and food pantries are being told that USDA deliveries of commodities such as cheese and meat are at least temporarily canceled. Many others were not informed by federal officials that their deliveries would not come, he said.

Hall characterized the USDA’s decision as a break to review existing programs and said his organization hoped that the administration would resume purchases and deliveries “with a minimum disruption on the flow of food.” Groups that work in rural areas, which rely more on government food than to get, will be particularly difficult to hit by a lack of commodities, he said.

Rather, Trump received praise from almost all Republican lawmakers, despite undermining their power and taking away their authority.

Only a few, such as the chairman of the Senate’s Health, Education, Labor and Pension Committee, Bill Cassidy, who helped Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Confirmation as Secretary of Health and Human Services over the finish line referred to the proposal of legislation.

But it is only the latest example of the congress that completely abdicates his duties in the name of Trump.

Alex Woodward listened.

President Donald Trump’s administration requested that the federal judge oversee the challenge for Trump’s executive order that withdrew on the law firm Perkins Coie from the case, in which he claimed a “pattern of hostility” to the president.

Advocates for the Justice Department said US district judge Beryl Howell’s impartiality could be “reasonably questioned”. They referred to her previous statements against Trump and commented on matters to which his supporters were related to the attack on January 6, 2021 at the US capital.

“This court did not keep its contempt for President Trump Secret,” the advocates wrote in a court conservation. “It expressed his mind hard – both inside and outside the courtroom.”

Last week, Howell temporarily blocked the Trump administration to enforce a large part of his order against the Democrat-linked Firm Perkins Coie, and stipulated that it probably violated the US Constitution.

The Trump administration has increased its criticism of federal judges over the past few weeks, as courts have sometimes tried to limit Trump’s broad use of presidential power.
