The Trump administration has ordered caregivers for migrant children to stop reporting human trafficking concerns directly to the office created to help victims. The directive issued last week has raised fears among advocates that some victims of labor and sex trafficking could be denied services and face tougher odds of obtaining asylum and visas allowing them to stay in the United States.

President Donald Trump has scored a series of wins at the Supreme Court, but he's had some setbacks on key issues, despite the court’s conservative majority. On Monday, the justices rejected his administration’s planned restrictions on mail ballots for the midterm elections. None of the justices he appointed publicly disagreed. Trump criticized the court on social media, expressing frustration over losses on tariffs and birthright citizenship. While the court has allowed Trump to advance much of his agenda, including on immigration and transgender rights, some high-profile losses have rankled him. The court’s recent decisions also suggest a reluctance to intervene in election litigation before the midterms.
