BOSTON (Reuters) -A federal judge in Boston had some pointed words for Donald Trump as he issued one of the dozens of decisions by courts in four New England states against the Republican president in challenges to the legality of his policies. "I fear President Trump believes the American people are so divided that today they will not stand up, fight for and defend our most precious constitutional values so long as they are lulled into thinking their own personal interests are not affected," U.S. District Judge William Young wrote in ruling that Trump's administration was violating free speech rights by moving to deport non-U.S. citizen pro-Palestinian activists at American colleges. Young's September 30 ruling was an example of how federal judges in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Maine have become key players in the legal wars over Trump's policies since he returned to office in January, as litigants seek a friendly venue to challenge the president.
