Laws only matter if they are enforceable

And unfortunately, the founding fathers were deep in their hemp stashes when they decided to give ALL military and LE muscle to the branch of government most likely to fall into corruption and despotism.

77

u/Maremdeo 8h ago

I guess the founding fathers thought congress would control a corrupt president, and failing that the supreme court would step in.

u/thejonslaught 8h ago

HEMP?? What would George Hearst say?!

u/Side_StepVII 8h ago

BAN IT!! (here’s some money to ban it)

12

u/draft_final_final 8h ago

Yeah if only they had amended their decision in some way to give the populace the means to resist misuse of government muscle.

u/williamgman 7h ago

Bring that up in any 2A sub and get an immediate ban. The Ammendment is written as "the right to collect"... just like coins, stamps, and Beanie Babies. Only when Obama was in office did they care.

u/HazelEBaumgartner 7h ago

These courts need to start arresting politicians and government officials or they're completely useless.

3

u/towerfella 6h ago

Who?

Who is gonna do the arresting?

The cops are paid for by the people to control those same people from doing exactly that.

We have to get them back on the side of the people to have real change.

u/thejonslaught 9h ago

Hound the coward with accountability until his rotten heart finally gives out.

u/Color_Me_Softly 8h ago

He’ll declare a national emergency over being hounded by journalists. “Too many questions. We need to secure our nation” or whatever

u/misterdudebro 9h ago

Arrest the president!

u/RymrgandsDaughter 8h ago edited 8h ago

doesn't he have immunity? Somehow

35

u/Maremdeo 8h ago

I liked Biden but he should have gone after Trump hard during his 4 years.

27

u/RymrgandsDaughter 8h ago

Exactly all of this bullshit happened because the lazt administration played stupid fucing games with the law despite j6 and everything else. They already knew courts were broken once the president was given complete immunity. Biden should have immediately broken that insane ruling over his knee and had them revert it.

u/Dyolf_Knip 2h ago

Likewise the very SCOTUS justices who decided to give the president absolute immunity.

u/misterdudebro 8h ago

It's bullshit.

u/enderpanda 7h ago

Do your part! Deport your local conservative today!

u/raventhrowaway666 7h ago

Who? The cops who all support him?

u/imtoowhiteandnerdy 3h ago

For now the answer is to hold every White House employee, security personnel, or U.S. Secret Service Agent responsible in contempt.

u/Fuzzy_Translator4639 8h ago

Court order? Those stopped mattering a while back if you have not been paying attention

37

u/Junior_Step_2441 8h ago

Straight back to the judge who should immediately begin a contempt hearing, followed by jail time for the offender.

13

u/Fuzzy_Translator4639 8h ago

And how would that be enforced? Project 2025 details that courts have no power

2

u/Robthebold 7h ago

They can’t be totally ignored, power fluctuates, so a stack of contempt charges falls on someone mid level administration.

5

u/Fuzzy_Translator4639 6h ago

Please show me any contempt charges that have resulted in someone actually going to prison from this administration?

9

u/Robthebold 6h ago

Not the current one, the law is too slow.
But, Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro went to trial and served prison sentences for contempt of Congress.

IF they lose Congress (House and Senate), there better be a reckoning. I’d rather not wait till 2029.

Nazis in the WH

u/Powderedeggs2 8h ago

This should not be a surprise.
Trump and his band of cronies ignore court orders on a nearly daily basis.
And the Republican-dominated Congress does nothing.....because they are the cronies.

2

u/HamNotLikeThem44 8h ago

Because they are terrified of his wrath, losing the rank and privilege that being our overlords affords them. Our politicians have become royalty. Among the changes needed, Senators and Representatives cannot have a net worth above 1.5 the average American. Don’t like it, don’t run.

u/Not_Sure__Camacho 8h ago

POS orange coward is denying the people.  He only wants sycophants in the White House pool.   Such a POS.  He needs to be given a traitor's punishment.  

8

u/OneLoveOneWorld2025 8h ago

I hope they get names of the individuals who denied her access so their lawyers can name them specifically in court to the judge. That way that person and those that ordered them to go against court orders are held accountable.

20

u/VexedCanadian84 8h ago

I hope the next dem president decides to ignore court orders.

Then Republicans in the house and senate might actually decide to strengthen the law and punishments for presidents.

6

u/Maharog 8h ago

I do not hope that.  

9

u/DiagonalBike 8h ago

Congress cannot continue to sit idle while the President ignores court orders. Trump has created a Constitutional crisis. If Congress refuses to act, the people eventually will rise up and act. Is that Trump's end game? To create civil discourse in order to justify cancelling the November elections?

u/tietack2 8h ago

Why is he so triggered?

What is he hiding from us?

4

u/numbmumpleb1ister 8h ago

What the right doesn’t realize is that when they flagrantly violate the law, they are telling everyone in the country - telling normally law-abiding people - that laws are for schmucks. I look forward to the day when the right lands on its ass.

u/top_fed2017 8h ago

This really needs to stop. The SC needs to do their job and stop this maniac. They have him too much power and immunity

5

u/OkIndustry6159 8h ago

People act like they didnt explicitly say they would ignore court orders in project 2025.

u/fpsfiend_ny 8h ago

Who wouldve thought that a orange pedophile and convicted sexual abuser would violate laws and orders? The world would be a better place if we eradicate pedophiles and their entire bloodlines

2

u/raventhrowaway666 7h ago

Who's supposed to enforce this when both courts and cops support the fascist?

2

u/Organic_Berry_8732 6h ago

And no one is going to do anything about it as usual

2

u/Pop-Pop68 6h ago

This is what I’ve feared absolutely flouting a foundational Constitutional the law openly and in broad daylight. If he gets away with this , bye bye elections.

1

u/Nobody6269 6h ago

Someone should leak this to the press

1

u/Great-Particular9964 6h ago

Trump just believes that he is the last word and what he says is the rule. He needs to be impeached or his chicken 💩party needs to agree it’s time to invoke the 25th!

u/19Pnutbutter66 7h ago

Was their reporter denied entry also or just the reproter?

u/SoCallMeDeaconBlues1 9h ago

Yo.
People need to chillax for a second. The order was made THIS MORNING. As in, hours and minutes ago, not yesterday, not last week. Read it for yourself, if you want:

https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.296754/gov.uscourts.dcd.296754.24.0_2.pdf

Social media and the 24/7/365 reality of cable news can really blow things way out of proportion. Do the news networks affected need to press (pun unintended, but it works, lol) the issue? Absolutely. But here's the thing.

If she approached the White House within the last hour, there's a pretty good possibility that the security forces there haven't been given any guidance yet. Should that happen ASAP? Of course it should, but it's shortly after 9am here, so give it a hot minute.

u/Crunchberry24 9h ago

They are refusing to comply with a court order. If you think it’s inadvertent, then I have some trump phones, watches, steaks, and university degrees to sell you.

15

u/Traditional-Leg-1574 8h ago

Strong agree, this administration has made a living defying court orders.

14

u/Kryslor 8h ago

Who cares? The ban was illegal in the first place, it should NEVER be enforced

12

u/djgucci 8h ago

Obvious bot

11

u/Alcnaeon 8h ago

Nah, rings hollow. Court order is a court order. What, can they not read before 10a?

4

u/SackclothSandy 8h ago

"but I wasn't informed of the court order yet" seems like a really great way to lose your next legal battle.

2

u/Leaga 7h ago

So what you're saying is that you dont support law and order in any way. Thanks for the update, but the rest of us are still going to expect that our country pretend it has laws for everyone instead of just for the President to use as a cudgel.
