New in PN: The Trump admin's mockery of the courts goes beyond defiance
"It’s no secret that Trump has been flouting court orders. But administration lawyers also brazenly change their arguments on the fly — often in front of the same judge — when faced with a loss or ruling they don’t like."

The judiciary is designed to be independent, meaning judges are not subject to political pressure and can make impartial decisions based on the law.
Judges are people, they can vote.
Best advise, look it up! You will maybe understand
Trump is freaking out b/c judges he appointed didn’t go his way.
We have 3 separations of power, Executive, Legislative and Judicial.
Our Felon is trying to get rid of the latter 2. Felon wants to be a dictator ruling over the USA.
It is unconstitutional. Meanwhile felon ignores the constitution. And we live in fear.
Quote of the day from Faux News reporting on this same news story. "We don't need the constitution we got the 10 Commandments."
The Gulf of US is not offshore, it's at the core of our survival.

I was enthralled by the idea.
idgaf anymore: the entire administration and its lawyers need to be put against a fuckin wall.
Many of Trump's followers are the same. Trump is above the law. They aren't.

I don’t know something like jail.🤷🏻♂️
I do think they are getting fed up with it though!
What's the matter with these courts?
These bastards should not just be walking out of a courtroom without handcuffs and shackles. They should have e a giant bailiff on either side of them with a hand under either armpit steering them toward the nearest cells.
