A federal judge on Wednesday blocked Trump's executive order seeking asylum or applying for a moratorium on repatriation in the US, ruling that the order exceeded the president's executive powers. US District Judge Randolph Daniel Moss, appointed by former President Barack Obama, said on Wednesday that the order exceeded the president's authority to suspend immigration legal protections, and emphasized that neither the Immigration and Nationality Act nor the Constitution gave the executive branch the power to replace INA and its regulations. Trump's adviser Stephen Miller criticized the ruling on social platforms.
