And Trump just wants to continue the feat.
A preview of what’s going to happen when he refuses to leave at the end of his term.
Is anyone really surprised?
Reeks of weakness and desperation, but so does most of what Trump does
And people will still say he’s not a fascist.
Hold him in contempt and toss his baby ass in jail then. Everyone is scared of a guy that shits himself and can’t even string together a half-assed sentence.
Felon disregarding court orders. Shocking.
The “law and order” party…
However, Chinese media is inside the White House. Trump’s loyalties are obvious.
For Trump, this story is a HUGE win — he imagines that it makes him look strong, and time spent discussing the press ban is time that isn’t being spent discussing the fact that Donald Trump is mentioned more times in the Epstein files than anyone except for Jeffrey Epstein, and that his war in Iran is a huge defeat that’s costing everybody a lot of money.
Republicans got full power and are now showing what they will do with it.
Those saying this party is for the people has no excuses now. You have to be willfully ignorant to not see they are in it for themselves.
Judges and not holding republicans accountable. Name a more iconic duo.
Why would they listen? There are no consequences for them.
That’s the problem with brown shirts. Domestic terrorists don’t think they have to listen when their mission is destruction of a nation.
The rule of law party should really be upset with the rule of law not being followed right? RIGHT?!?!
The WH has been ignoring court orders for two years. It’s a coup. They have no intention of relinquishing power.
Throw him in the jail then! He’s just a fucking guy. Same as any other fucking guy. I don’t fucking care. He has a body. He’s breaking the law. Take his fat ass to the jail!
Arrest the security that is disobeying court orders. And then arrest the people who gave them that illegal order.
Law is law.
Maybe if the Supreme Court had not told Donnie it is ok for him to break the law.
Party of law and order, right? RIGHT?!
Court rulings mean nothing if no one enforces them. We’ve known this since this fool first got into the People’s House a decade ago.
“Isn’t listening,” should be “not complying”. A court order isn’t a request.
It’s stupid to even point out how insane he is at this point. The mad king shit has long since reached cartoonish levels of absurdity. There’s no evidence to suggest he’ll change his trajectory of just getting worse and worse. And we’ve all come to accept that. It’s just, “yeah, there goes that insane old asshole we elected and his creepy young concubine. We’re just hoping he dies before he completely destroys the world.”
We don’t expect Congress to remove him, even though we all know that if any other president in history had pulled half the corrupt, unconstitutional, and insanely reckless shit he has, they’d be in a padded cell by now. But because Republicans have no morals and even less courage, we’re just waiting to see if enough semi-apathetic people bother to vote for a Congress that *might possibly* consider holding even part of his crime ring accountable.
It’s maddening how blatant it’s all become, and how helpless it feels to see so many people still operating like shit is just normal.
Unless they actually do something about it, he isn’t gonna stop
Best part is that this was a Trump appointed judge.
The Supreme Court says he is beyond prosecution. You’ve elected a king.
Put appointees in contempt and in jail. You want to stop this madness? Make the spoiled narcissists uncomfortable. That’s all it would have taken from day one.
Chinese state press is in the WH while American outlets are denied entry. And Trump supporters still think they’re patriots?
The Supreme Leader is above the law – and is the source of all law and the final arbiter of the fate of the nation. Why did anyone expect him to listen to some dudes in robes when they disagree with him?
You give power to authoritarian nutcases, you get an authoritarian nutcase government. The only current saving grace is that the nutcase in chief is deeply, deeply senile and stupid.
We either erase the impeachment clause from the Constitution or we erase the First Amendment. You can’t have both, in this situation.
Remember a year or two ago when all the commentariat were like, “We’re teetering on the verge of a constitutional crisis!” And “The real test of our democracy will come when he defies a court order.”
So where are the consequences for blatantly disregarding a judges orders yet again?
I’m tired of Republicans making us a banana republic.
So, are we at Constitutional Crisis yet?
Those “government tyranny!” Folks are awful quiet right now.
This is just a teaser of what’s coming. I expect the administration to go full lawless dictatorial not long after the primaries, regardless of who comes out ahead. Strap in. It’s gonna be a rough two years, maybe more.
Issue arrest warrant for Todd Blanche.
Are y’all seeing the pattern yet? So at what point do you actually draw the line? Cuz if you think this buffoon is willingly leaving in two years you haven’t been paying attention.
