A federal judge appointed by former President Ronald Reagan announced in an op-ed published Sunday that he has resigned from the bench, giving up his lifetime appointment so he can speak openly against President Donald Trump, whom he accuses of undermining judicial independence and using the law to reward allies and target opponents.
Mark Wolf, appointed by Reagan in 1985, wrote in The Atlantic that he had expected to remain on the court for the rest of his life but felt compelled to step down.
