What is the date and time required by the judge? That is PROTEST O'CLOCK, my people.
Or what? The judge doesn't have the power to enforce it. The president has greater power than the judge. The judge shouldn't even be involved to begin with. The executive order trumps the judges order.
you're wrong and let me explain why.
a judge rules with the force of laws. this is because they work within the judicial branch. these laws are written, voted, and accepted as truth. laws are practically stricken in stone.
executive orders are orders given to how the government should operate, not how they will operate. without laws to back the EO the order is worth as much as an Arby's receipt. they are not royal proclamations because America does not have a king.
Trump and his bastards have broken several hundred if not thousands of laws all under the guise of executive privilege which has ZERO legal standing in court. and before you bring scotus into this, they don't make the laws they merely interpret them and how they should be interpreted. it's up to the lower courts and judges to apply or ignore laws as they have been interpreted.
so to recap: executive orders are not laws, they cannot be interpreted by scotus and thus can be ignored or even challenged by the lower courts.
as for what the judges can do, they can hold him in contempt, arrest him, and place him in custody for not complying with the law.
hopefully you've learned something and can be less ignorant about a subject you seem so passionate about.
Traditions don't work with bullies. Trump is exposing every weakness in the US institutions.
Whatcha gonna do, judge? Ask again? Wait until deadlines pass? Delay has always been Trumpy Dumpty's strategy to maximize harm. No conquences means nothing to lose.
But instead of poking a dictator who doesn't GAF, how about holding congress Republicans accountable since, you know, they "control" finances. You start dragging them out in cuffs, I betcha it will get someone's attention, fast!
The next step is the DoJ sends the US Marshalls to arrest the President for failure to comply with a federal court order. Let’s hope they follow through.
Congress is not withholding the funds, so they are not committing a crime. That’s part of the reason for the accountability executive order, obscuring responsibility.
The DoJ is an executive agency, under the President, currently run by Pam Bondi and Emil Bove. Anyone in that organization who moves against the President is getting fired, whether or not that is legal.
And just like that, Trump fires the US Marshalls.
Interesting. I suppose it being an executive order does keep it to the executive branch. It's late over here and the brain hurts.
Too bad there isn't a law that requires the legislative brance to exercise powers of checks and balances. Maybe that's something to note for America 2.0.
The federal courts took the first step, ruling the action unconstitutional. We’ll see if the DoJ dispatches the US Marshalls with a warrant for failure to comply. If not, they will be complicit.
The courts can directly order the Marshalls to enforce their rulings. But yes,the Marshalls do roll up under the DOJ. So what happens when the courts give the order is anyone's guess.
Failure would result in a constitutional crisis.
Another one? Toss it on the pile.
There hasn’t been one yet. It’s defined as a situation in which a major political dispute cannot be clearly resolved on the basis of the particular government’s constitution or established practice. All steps must be taken until our system has been proven to fail.
What are they gonna do? Prosecute him? Impeach him? Hold him in contempt?
Dudes been stealing from everyone for his whole life and doesn't give a fuck what a judge thinks.
Ha! We both said the same thing.
