A federal judge warned of “consequences” if the Trump administration violated court orders, but did not specify what those consequences would be or what it would take for the judge to enact them.
Stop warning, start consequenting.
I know, right? Just skip straight to the point.
Much to late for that.
Anyone wanna guess what those “Consequences” are going to be?
- A sternly worded written order DEMANDING compliance, with random words in ALL CAPS to show how serious they are this time.
- A repeat of the orders demanding compliance, but adding the words “OR ELSE” to the end.
- A $1000 fine for the first dozen or so violations, followed by nothing at all.
- A contempt of court charge for Trump that actually can’t be enforced because he’s the sitting President.
- A press release saying that Trump needs to abide by the court’s decisions.
- Absolutely fucking nothing at all.
Makes you wish the shooter had practiced more.
On the one hand, yeah. On the other hand, would it somehow unleash Stephen Miller even more?
No. None of these other chuds had nearly 20 or 30 years of media whitewashing them like Trump had. Stephen Miller is practically date rape incarnate. As Steve Bannon is what alcoholism would be if it were a person.

Theoretically, you can still sue the office of the President, just not Trump himself.
So, you know. You can cost the taxpayers money, but not the person making the terrible costly decisions
Last I checked he can’t be charged with anything as sitting President, not that it can’t be enforced.
Whichever way it works. The end result is the same.
If the justice system worked the same way for everyone as it did for trump, it would be no different than not existing at all.
If the judiciary didn’t exist at all, you know there would be some vigilante justice being meted out on a regular basis.
Just saying.
There’s already been a couple attempts on his life, so your theory holds ground.
No attempt that should be taken seriously.
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
They already did. Why is there all these warnings and super warnings and ultimatums. Because there are separate laws for us and them.
Man, if you guys rip on me 14 or 15 more times, I’m outta here
Maybe you would get tons of warnings and no consequences if you broke the law. Have you tried?
Consequences? I don’t know the meaning of the word.
-Trump probably
How much could a consequence be? 10 dollars?
-Trump probably
The only Consequences Trump has faced was watching Bob Barker on TV in the 60’s.
Remember to spay and neuter your fascists!
lol ok
let it play out. so far the judiciary has been the only administrative bulwark. we will know so much more very shortly and that will dictate what hand is forced next.
edit: not defending the democrats one bit, but they may be looking for judicially adjudicated constitutional overreach by the executive. when that happens, if the dems dont react with leadership and direction, the only thing left is mass street action (bets on this actually getting organized?) and then there will almost certainly be real violence - which may open up the fourth box.
Hopefully, they start chipping away at his staff and administration. But who am I kidding.
I vote Stephen Miller first. Can we do him first?
Consequences? As in, sequences of cons? Because I’ve seen a lot of those already - Trump’s whole damn life is a con sequence…
Finally, trump is really gonna get a stern talking to this time!
Haha, consequences?
The executive thinks it hot shit but tell me corpos wouldn’t lose their shit if judges were suddenly hostile towards them.
Seriously, if I were a large company owner that had to pay a settlement right now I wouldn’t. I’d just say the executive branch showed the courts aren’t a governing body any more. We killed 17 workers? Oops, who cares. Their families? Fuck em
lol no there won’t be
Warnings mean nothing to those people
Ooooooh…another warning…that’ll show em.
