Second federal judge freezes Trump mail ballot order with U.S. Supreme Court poised to weigh in

AI TLDR · GEMINI

U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols has issued a ruling to freeze an executive order regarding mail-in ballots, marking the second federal injunction against the mandate. The decision comes as the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to review the case and is notable because Nichols, a Trump appointee, previously declined to halt the order.

The decision issued late Sunday by U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols is significant because he was nominated by Trump and earlier declined to freeze the executive order.

In Week 2, the Philadelphia Eagles faced an opponent in the Tennessee Titans that had a 3-14 record in 2025 with a point differential of -194, that was also dominated in Week 1 by, uh, the New York Jets. The Eagles eked out a win, but as usual, there is plenty to gripe about. As always, we hand out 10 awards.
