Trump and Vance are planning to ignore the courts
On Monday, a federal judge ruled that the Trump administration openly defied a court order by refusing to restore critical funds for vital programs they slashed. This means they MUST unfreeze those funds immediately.
This is a win, but it's nowhere near the end of the fight. JD Vance's response is a flashing, red warning sign:
JD Vance is saying the quiet part out loud: he thinks this MAGA administration is above the law – that they can brush off court rulings and do whatever they want. They've made it clear. If they don't like a court ruling, they'll try to bulldoze right through it.
Our courts provide critical checks on executive power. They – not a wannabe imperial President and his enablers – define what's legal and what's not.
I'll be watching Trump's responses to these federal court decisions. If he ignores rulings, we're in uncharted territory. Make no mistake: Democrats will respond immediately to stop this dangerous power grab.
Onward!
