Apparently one federal judge has suspended the money cutoff order for the moment. Help, if there is to be any, will have to come (God help us!) from the courts.
To paraphrase what Andrew Jackson probably didn't say about the Supreme Court: "they've made their decision; now let them enforce it." The authority of a court lies in an agreement that the courts have authority. If the party that actually has the power to enforce a decision, which is the executive branch in the case of federal courts via the marshals and fibbies and other instruments of state security, decides they want out of the agreement, who's to stop them?
I don't know about Democrats. I imagine there were a bunch of Republicans screaming about the freeze behind closed doors, like "we're gonna get creamed if you do this."
When people get pissed, such as you suggest could happen 2 years from now in the House. Little Mario and the reporter live from Iraq (Vance) need to be replaced this year? Can Dems replace Mario? Probably not. Maybe Vance.
More Reubs open in 2026 in the Senate than Dems including the replacements. If Dems would grow a pair, than maybe . . .
SCOTUS has denied Trump once? As Beverly might tell you, the decision on giving Trump divine right was undeniably a BS decision. I believe they may have come to an oh-crap moment. As you already know Presidents are not kings and neither are we peasants.
I, um, did not care for that video.
It's just awful and I don't, I can't, what ...?
Surely there must be some, like, art behind it?
Please don't say "behind."
Hah! Sorry, indelicately put.

We'll see if they comply. They've fired so many people they may not even know how to comply.
Weldon:
Courts do not take no for an answer even with the best attorney representation.
If so and likely not, this pres with the little hands will pivot to SCOTUS immediately when the rest of us have to file repeatedly with briefs.
I believe they have backed off already. Maybe there is a single Dem who can stymie trump and the Repubs for a while, Maybe???

Just hallucinating here. No ruby slippers either.
Yeah. I don't know. I do think it depends less on the courts than on what they think they can get away with politically.
