Does this actually do anything? This administration just does whatever they want now I thought..

If you see ICE on the street, call 911 and report them as armed thugs in black hoodies. That phrasing will put the cops in "shoot first" mode.

Lmao! That made me flashback to the final shootout in Enemy of the State!

Unfortunately the police are often with them.

I'd say yes. So far there is just the Gracias case that they have openly ignored the supreme Court.

Courts have stoppednabd reversed firings, for example. DODGE is loosing court cases left and right.

So far they are fighting the cases in court by appeals.

Take a look at the volume of lawsuits so far.

Try not to think that way, if you can help it. They desire it of us, and we can at least disappoint them in this, even though they have most things their own damn way.

I just go off of what I’m seeing these days.

I miss his first term when everyone was like, “well the president only has but so much power. He can only do but so much…”

It's one rock breaking loose when we need a landslide, but that's how landslides always start

Aww, poor baby justices had to stay up late working? Well, maybe if you didn't issue a stupid as hell ruling that tried to have it both ways a week ago and then kicked everything into the 5th circuit you wouldn't be working at midnight on a Saturday, but here we all are.

“Let’s deport them”

“Wait no! We weren’t actually serious about any of that it was just to distract voters!”

Your seriously believe even one of them are going to inflect or back down here?

They're all going to double down. This is now a constitutional crisis when trump chooses to go of the handle in the morning and try to discredit the courts and seize their power officially for himself.
