## Resource

From immigration to elections, ballrooms to tax immunity, much of President Donald Trump’s second term agenda is mired in the courts . While a Republican-controlled Congress has shown little interest in restraining the president as he seeks to execute on an expansive agenda, the courts may still decide that it’s in the country’s best interests to do so. What’s the latest status of these cases and what’s next for Trump’s complicated legal journey? USA TODAY Justice Department Correspondent Aysha Bagchi joins The Excerpt to unpack the political and legal issues.
