We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Trump isn't personally running the entire federal government and showing up to court to file his own motions and answer questions from judges. Trump and his inner circle may act like they're above the law, but the people who have to carry out their instructions aren't immune to consequences.
This is especially true in court. Lawyers aren't eager to throw their careers away by lying to judges, filing false statements, or openly defying court orders. That's why the administration has lost so many lawyers and says things in court that are wildly different than what they say everywhere else.
Suing this administration has been a much more effective strategy than most people seem to realize. It's often a long, drawn out process that wastes time and money, and they drag things out as much as possible. And yes the Supreme Court has been blatantly corrupt in the ways they've bailed out the Trump administration. But still, they only take on a small fraction of the total number of cases (and even then, they mostly help them stall cases with temporary orders rather than deciding actual cases).
When the Supreme Court doesn't intervene, the Trump administration loses or backs down the vast majority of the time.
Holy shit, man.
Remember Andrew Jackson? The Supreme Court also told him he couldn't do something. He did it anyway
"For now."
For now: until SCOTUS rules he can do whatever he wants as long as it's to "blue" states and doesn't affect ~~their owners~~ billionaires.
The supreme court: we'll put an emergency stay on this order, pending a decision two years from now, because irreparable harm could happen if we don't allow Donny to do whatever he feels like.
Trump says hold my Adderall.
