As of mid-February 2025, at least 74 lawsuits have been filed against the Trump administration, primarily in a few key U.S. courts. These legal challenges have emerged in response to various executive actions undertaken by Trump, particularly concerning immigration policies. A report indicates that four U.S. courts, which have a majority of judges appointed by Democrats, are central to these disputes. The lawsuits have led to at least 14 blocking actions by judges, creating a complex legal landscape that may influence Trump's broader policy initiatives. The ongoing litigation reflects a strategy by Trump's adversaries to counter his executive actions, while Trump himself has also initiated lawsuits regarding illegal immigration. This dynamic of legal maneuvering has raised questions about the powers of the presidency and the role of the judiciary in shaping executive policy.
