Judge blocks Trump from tying anti-terrorism grants to election changes

The ruling prevents the administration from using homeland security grants as leverage over how states run their elections. The decision is being closely watched as part of the broader legal battles over presidential power and election administration.
Why now: A fresh judicial ruling limiting the Trump administration's leverage over state election rules is drawing attention amid ongoing election-related litigation.
