Judge tosses Trump order punishing the law firm WilmerHale

President Donald Trump's push to punish law firms suffered another defeat Tuesday, as a federal judge in D.C. struck down his executive order sanctioning the law firm WilmerHale. U.S. District Judge Richard J. Leon ruled that Trump's order was unconstitutional and blocked the government from enforcing it, becoming the third judge this month to side with a law firm that had challenged the president's sanctions.
