Second federal judge freezes Trump mail ballot order with US Supreme Court poised to weigh in

US District Judge Carl Nichols has blocked Donald Trump's USPS mail ballot rules, marking the second federal freeze on these mail-in voting restrictions. This action occurs as the US Supreme Court prepares to weigh in on the administration's request to overturn a separate order blocking the rule. Separately, Trump urged Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy to stop strikes on Russian oil refineries and infrastructure, claiming such attacks are causing a global shortage as US diesel prices hit records.
