Source: Reuters
A federal judge in Washington on Monday blocked President Donald Trump from banning transgender people from serving in the U.S. military, handing a victory to transgender service members who accused the president of violating their constitutional rights.
The service members asserted that Trumps policy violated their rights to due process and equal protection under the law under the U.S. Constitution. Kollar-Kotelly said the plaintiffs were likely to succeed in their claim that the ban was unconstitutional because the administrations reasons for it do not appear to be supported by any facts.

Mississippi judge resigns after barring mother from seeing baby for 14 months over unpaid court fees
Mississippi judge who barred a mother from seeing her newborn baby for 14 months because she hadnt paid court-imposed fees has stepped down.
The judge first issued the order after the woman and a friend, who were driving through the city of Pearl looking for work, were pulled over by a police officer who discovered both women had outstanding warrants for routine misdemeanor offenses. The police officer who made the arrest told the Mississippi Department of Human Services that the child who was in the car with the two women was abandoned, despite the fact that it was the officers own arrest that forced the child to be separated from the mother.

With FEMA Overwhelmed, Its Up to Nurses Left to Feed Starving Puerto Ricans
HUMACAO, Puerto RicoNurses came to Puerto Rico from the mainland United States to help treat the sick, but many are instead working to prevent starvation and dehydration
I dont know whats taking FEMA so much time to move on from the assessment mode to intervention, Litten said, comparing her days on the island to her chaotic day job as an emergency room nurse in California.
The nurses not only identified the areas where people lack access to clean water but also spent time going to grocery stores, shopping for necessity goods.
Once we hit the streets we noticed lots of people were facing dehydration and starvation, so we switched gears [to provide food] since day one, Litten said.

I did think it was because Trump's FEMA did not know what they were doing. I am beginning to think it is on purpose.
