I encourage these ICE officers to maybe look up the Nuremberg trials and see just how much utility "we were just following orders" was as a defense

It’s extremely alarming that Trump openly defying a court order is being covered as “Trump decides to not follow it” and not “Trump illegally defies court.” Or in the Washington Post’s case, not even mentioned at all
