A federal judge issued a temporary injunction against the Trump administration's attempt to retract Harvard University's ability to enroll international students, labeling the policy unconstitutional, a significant legal win for Harvard.

Meanwhile, President Trump's ambition to transition iPhone production to the U.S. encounters setbacks. The proposal, which includes a 25% tariff threat on non-U.S.-made phones, is stalled by legal complexities and logistical barriers.

Moreover, an extensive overhaul of the White House National Security Council coupled with ambitious nuclear energy directives reflect strategic changes, though these initiatives have provoked legal disputes and industry criticism.
