    What is the Supreme Court going to do? Even if Sotomayor whipped out a baton, marched down to the oval office herself, and took him into custody, what would happen?

    Let alone him having permission FROM THE SUPREME COURT to do whatever the fuck he wants.

      That’s the problem, the Supreme Court has relied on the Executive branch for enforcement. They have no enforcement mechanism if the whole Executive branch is compromised

        I think there may be some mechanisms. They can deputize citizens to carry out their rulings. It would be bloody though.

        I’d also like to see them freeze any finances the administration has access to. Or individuals in the administration.
