Trump bid to dismiss lawsuit blocked by judge in Iowa case
A federal judge blocked President Donald Trump from dismissing his suit against the Des Moines Register and pollster Ann Selzer and moving it entirely to state court. The ruling centers on Trump’s pending appeal to the Eighth Circuit and the need to resolve that appeal before any voluntary dismissal of the federal case. The dispute began in December 2024 over the Iowa Poll which Trump says overstate support for Kamala Harris by 16 points. The case involves Gannett and seeks to test Iowa’s anti-SLAPP law amid timing questions.
