法官驳回了特朗普针对律师事务所WilmerHale的命令
一名联邦法官周二永久阻止特朗普政府执行针对律师事务所WilmerHale的行政命令,此前他裁定该命令明显违反了美国宪法。
“美国司法制度的基石是独立的司法机构和独立的律师协会,他们愿意处理不受欢迎的案件,无论这些案件多么令人生畏。开国元勋们都知道这个!”前总统乔治·w·布什任命的地方法官理查德·莱昂写道。
“由于下文所述的原因,我的结论是,这项命令必须全部废除,因为它不符合宪法。事实上,如果不这样做,将有违国父们的判断和愿景!”
莱昂现在是第三位推翻特朗普针对律师事务所的行政命令的法官,这些律师事务所要么代表他的政治对手,要么以其他方式雇用他们。
威尔默哈尔之前曾聘用前特别顾问罗伯特·穆勒,他调查了俄罗斯与特朗普2016年竞选活动之间的关系。
莱昂在周二的裁决中说:“总而言之,命令和情况说明书清楚地表明,特朗普总统不赞成威尔默哈尔对某些原因的陈述和该公司关于穆勒的声明。”“该命令通过直接和间接对威尔默哈尔实施严厉制裁来压制这种不受欢迎的言论。
目前还不清楚特朗普政府是否会对莱昂的裁决提起上诉。
国务院暂时搁置新学生签证面试
美国广播公司新闻频道(ABC News)看到的周二早间发布的外交电报显示,美国国务卿马尔科·卢比奥(John Kerry)已下令美国大使馆和领事馆暂时暂停安排学生和交流访问签证的新面试,目前正在努力加强对申请人社交媒体账户的审查。
电报规定,之前安排的采访可以如期进行,但在进一步的指导发布之前,不应计划新的任命,预计“未来几天”一名国务院官员告诉美国广播公司新闻,领导层打算在本周末取消暂停。

目前,F-1学生签证的处理时间通常在三到五周左右,但在世界上的某些地方,可能需要三到九个月。

Trump admin live updates: Trump continues to criticize Putin amid Ukraine strikes
President Donald Trump on Monday delivered Memorial Day remarks in which he paid tribute to America's fallen soldiers while also swiping at the Biden administration.
Trump also continued to criticize Harvard, demanding that it reveal the personal details of its international students while threatening to take away more federal funds from the university.
On Capitol Hill, the House last week passed the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" to fund Trump's domestic agenda. It now heads to the Senate, where it will likely be changed.
Elon Musk 'disappointed' with Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill'
Elon Musk said he is "disappointed" with the "One Big, Beautiful Bill Act" thatpassed the Republican-led Houselast week, breaking with President Donald Trump whohelped get the legislation over the finish line.Elon Musk attends a Cabinet meeting in the Cabinet Room of the White House in Washington, April 30, 2025.
"I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not just decreases it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing,” Musk told CBS Newsin an interview, referring to the Department of Government Efficiency.
"I think a bill can be big or it could be beautiful," Musk added. "But I don’t know if it can be both. My personal opinion."
For several days, Musk has been hinting at his discontent withthe GOP bill, but these are his clearest comments to date criticizing the package.
The clip of Musk’s comments on the bill was released Tuesday night, but a full interview will air on CBS Sunday Morning on June 1.
Judge strikes down Trump order targeting law firm WilmerHale
A federal judge on Tuesday permanently blocked the Trump administration from enforcing an executive order targeting the law firm WilmerHale, after ruling the order plainly violates the U.S. Constitution.
"The cornerstone of the American system of justice is an independent judiciary and an independent bar willing to tackle unpopular cases, however daunting. The Founding Fathers knew this!" wrote district judge Richard Leon, an appointee of former President George W. Bush.
"For the reasons set forth below, I have concluded that this Order must be struck down in its entirety as unconstitutional. Indeed, to rule otherwise would be unfaithful to the judgment and vision of the Founding Fathers!"
Leon is now the third judge to strike down one of Trump's executive orders targeting law firms that have either represented his political adversaries or otherwise employed them.
WilmerHale previously employed former Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who investigated ties between Russia and Trump's 2016 campaign.
"In sum, the Order and Fact Sheet make clear that President Trump disfavors WilmerHale’s representation of certain causes and the firm’s statements regarding Mueller," Leon said in his ruling Tuesday. "The Order suppresses that disfavored speech by imposing severe sanctions on WilmerHale both directly and indirectly.
It's unclear whether the Trump Administration will appeal Leon's ruling.
State Dept. puts temporary hold on new student visa interviews
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has ordered that U.S. embassies and consulates to temporarily pause scheduling new interviews for student and exchange visitor visas amid ongoing efforts to boost screening of applicants' social media accounts, according to diplomatic cable issued Tuesday morning that was reviewed by ABC News.
The cable stipulates that previously scheduled interviews can proceed as scheduled, but that new appointments shouldn't be planned until further guidance is issued, which is expected "in the coming days." A State Department official told ABC News that leadership intends to lift the pause by the end of the week.
Politico was the first toreportthe pause in scheduling.
Although the pause for interviews is expected to be brief, there are concerns it could lead to a backlog in processing applicants—especially now that they will be subject to additional vetting.
Right now, the processing time for an F-1 student visa typically ranges from around three to five weeks, but in certain locations around the world, it can take anywhere from three to nine months.
