Judge rules Trump administration's cancellation of humanities grants unconstitutional

A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration's cancellation of more than $100 million in humanities grants supporting writers, researchers, and scholars was unconstitutional. The decision bars the administration from ending the grants and criticizes its use of artificial intelligence in the process.

The ruling comes amid several recent legal challenges to the Trump administration's cuts to federal agencies and programs. In recent months, courts have addressed similar cases involving the Institute of Museum and Library Services, with one settled out of court and another favoring state attorneys general.
