The Donald Trump administration has now induced over 200 lawsuits in the United States due to its divisive policies in the first 100 days since returning to the White House.
April 29 marks the 100th day of Trump's second term, a traditional milestone for evaluating a president's progress against campaign promises. In the chaotic first 100 days, Trump's administration has rolled out policies to impose sweeping tariffs, push for deportation of immigration, lay off massive federal employees, and shut down a great number of government agencies, among others.
According to Just Security, an editorially independent, non-partisan, digital law and policy journal, so far over 200 lawsuits relating to tariffs, immigration policy, education, and agency layoffs have been filed against Trump's administration in the United States since the beginning of its term.
In particular, legal challenges against the administration's tariff policies have been escalating.
On April 14, multiple U.S. small businesses jointly sued the U.S. government over its tariff policies.
In addition, twelve states, including California, have jointly sued the federal government, urging it to immediately halt its illegal reciprocal tariffs.
In terms of immigration policy, Trump signed an executive order on his first day in office to end birthright citizenship, which was later blocked by multiple federal judges.
In the field of education, Harvard University has recently accused the U.S. government of trying to control the university's academic decisions by freezing federal funds.
In addition, the Trump administration's massive layoffs across many government agencies have also triggered a wave of lawsuits.
According to the New York Times, as of Saturday, at least 108 judicial rulings had blocked the government's effort to implement relevant policies.
Some analysts point out that the Trump administration's aggressive push for these policies reflects its intent to weaponize the executive power, which has triggered a flood of legal challenges.
This phenomenon of "the U.S. suing itself" not only highlights the escalating conflict between the executive and judicial branches, but also reveals how the legal arena is becoming a key battleground for partisan warfare.
The continuous and escalating clashes between U.S. executive and judicial branches, along with the intensifying partisan warfare, have fueled the growing public disillusionment and discontent.
In April alone, over 1,000 protests erupted across the United States, covering all of its 50 states.
