This all sounds nice, but Trump and Vance are already openly and brazenly refusing to comply with court orders. I’ve seen absolutely no evidence that the courts will hold them accountable. How can they?The legislative branch has already ceded power. Everyone who could have held them accountable before it got to this point declined to do so, and now they can’t be stopped. We are cooked.
Yes and the only recourse to a refusal to honor a court order is calling the Federal Marshall service to enforce that order. Who controls and directs the Marshall Servcice - why Trump does. Look at India and Ghandi. Look at the US and the Civil rights movement. Look at John Brown and the Civil war. This will hopefully be done peacefully, but all those three historical examples of fighting authoritarianism had violence and death for the resisters. You might as well prepare yourself psychologically for this result.
Is no one thinking three-dimensionally here and considering that with all the resistance, pushback, lawsuits, etc., this administration may get fed up with the roadblocks to its agenda and just decide to shutter the legislative and judicial branches - and go it alone as an empire?
All legal and journalistic efforts MUST be made 1st, particularly in the run up to the 2026 election. Hearts and Minds of very confused and captured voters must be attempted first. IF the Democrats do not seize control of one of the houses of Congress then after this concerted campaign, then other more "John Brown" type measures may be in order.
These guys are doing great work. It will be difficult to organize one cohesive resistance, it will be a thousand such efforts to continue to undermine this fascist authoritarian capture of American system of governance.

And then we get a war and insurgency.
Exactly, this must be pushed all the way, forcing a decision on what kind of country we want to live in.
very concerned
Keep up the great work. Continue to bring withering legal fire to this illegal, unconstituntional and corrupt DOGE enterprise.
