Shockingly not immigration related today, at least not directly.

Buried in the budget bill the US House just passed is a clause making it impossible for courts to bring criminal charges against Trump or his government officials for anything, even violating the Constitution.

Basically, while courts can still rule against Trump and co, this would mean they would have no consequences for violating those court orders.
