Today we're examining an apparent aggressive new tack in the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.
The Justice Department has just moved to strip citizenship from 12 naturalized citizens in courts across the country. 
That's compared to an average of about eleven cases per year between 1990 and 2017.
Immigration advocates have expressed concern that this could lead to the targeting of individuals for minor or honest mistakes, rather than just serious fraud.
For more, Bloomberg's June Grasso speaks to Leon Fresco, a partner at Holland and Knight and the former head of the office of immigration litigation in the Obama administration.

Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies designed to maintain a stable value because they’re pegged to a fiat currency, such as the U.S. dollar. The result is a highly liquid currency with a fixed value. Stablecoins are transacted on crypto rails as opposed to legacy banking systems, meaning they are faster, cheaper, and easier to use.  

Checkout.com, a leading global payments processor, is putting stablecoins into practice. They are upgrading  their platform so that customers and merchants can  use stablecoins in everyday transactions. Meanwhile, Coinbase is working with multiple levels of government to make sure that both legislation and regulations are in place to allow companies to use stablecoins with confidence.

The US Supreme Court limited the use of the Voting Rights Act to create predominantly Black or Hispanic election districts in a major constitutional ruling that buttresses Republican efforts to keep control of the House in this year’s midterms and beyond.
Voting 6-3 along ideological lines, the justices rejected a Louisiana congressional map that was drawn with a second majority-Black district after a lower court found an earlier map to be discriminatory.
The Supreme Court ruling undercuts what had been the most significant remaining part of the Voting Rights Act, a law passed in 1965 to address rampant discrimination against Black voters. The justices had already significantly weakened the law twice since 2013.
