President Donald Trump is just over 50 days into his second term. In a matter of weeks, he has signed a flurry of executive actions that have spurred confusion, led to layoffs and even prompted lawsuits. Eric Segall, the Ashe Family Chair professor of law at Georgia State University, provides an analysis of some pending lawsuits and court rulings. Segall also discusses Trump's executive power, Trump’s statement on so-called "illegal protests" and his threat to pull funding from colleges that allow such protests.

Last year, the US Department of Education provided up to $50 million in funding through its FAFSA Student Support Strategy to increase FAFSA completion rates for high school seniors, particularly for first-generation college students and for students of color. Under this effort, Jessica Johnson, a board member for the Atlanta Board of Education, and the founder and executive director of the Scholarship Academy, has worked to boost FAFSA completion rates for high school students across metro Atlanta. However, she says she was recently notified by the DOE about its decision not to continue funding its initiative. Johnson talks more about how the unfolding situation.
