A Trump-appointed judge says there's no right to clean water or truthful gov't health info. "Donald Trump-appointed judge Kurt Engelhardt disagreed. 'The Constitution does not provide redress for every governmental wrongdoing,' Engelhardt said. 'Defendants’ actions allegedly deprived Plaintiffs of clean water and guileless information. These deprivations, while grievous, do not infringe upon any deeply rooted constitutional right.'” https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/09/drinking-water-mississippi-lawsuit/ #law #uspol #politics #news
