The Trump resistance movement cheered when Democratic attorneys general in several states sued to block the president’s plan to bar travelers from some Muslim majority countries.
But with far less fanfare in the months since, an emboldened coalition of Democratic state attorneys general has unleashed a torrent of lower-profile litigation they argue is necessary to protect public health, the environment and consumers from a Republican White House.
State attorneys from Massachusetts to New York to California, often working together, have brought more than 40 legal actions against the Trump administration over the last seven months. The pace, which both parties describe as unprecedented, has produced an average of one lawsuit or legal motion every five days since Trump’s inauguration, not including many more letters, legal threats and formal comments to federal agencies. […]
The White House did not respond to a request for comment. But the frequency and variety of the legal challenges — from cases involving the energy efficiency of ceiling fans to gender reassignment surgeries at the Veteran’s Administration — have sparked criticism that Democrats may be playing politics with their states’ legal resources. …

Someone must find out why Democrat attorneys are so pro-illegal immigration and everything evil in this country. I want to hear it (even if forced) from their own mouths.
Probably SOROS and his ilk pumping more money into killing the Republic and democracy.
This was the plan cooked up in January. Choke Trump in relentless, never ending litigation.
So it is written “A dead attorney can’t litigate”
One wonders if this article includes the Soros money poured into the elections of many of these district attorney races, on the Democrat side.
All these regulations will choke businesses, the economy and America
Democrats are pure evil socialists
Democrats acknowledge that the pace of their legal actions is extraordinary. But they insist they’ve been given little choice by an inexperienced Trump administration that they accuse of taking extraordinarily steps to ignore the law.

Uhn huh.
Compared to who?
Don’t expect AP to get anything correct, including the language. They are so blinded by their leftist ideology, they can’t see or think straight.
The hits keep coming. Almost like it is coordinated or something...
The federal government can print money, so has deeper pocket than the States.
Disbar these attorneys-general for filing frivolous lawsuits.

>> AP, it is “Democrat,” not “Democratic.”
Something the “clever” MSM dirtbags often do, and can technically get away; however, the use of the adjective is not conventional especially in headlines.
