Federal judge blocks Trump administration sanctions against UN official Francesca Albanese
U.S. District Judge Richard Leon ruled Wednesday that Secretary of State Marco Rubio's sanctions against Francesca Albanese, a UN special rapporteur on Palestinian human rights, violate the First Amendment. Albanese faced sanctions under a Trump executive order targeting those engaged in ICC investigations related to alleged Gaza atrocities, but the judge found her actions constituted protected speech with no binding effect on ICC decisions.
