Judges: Yup. This shit is probably illegal and we want a halt to it while we hear arguments.
Judges two days later: We have since decided to not request a halt to it because trump et al aren’t going to halt and we don’t want to appear weak.
Judge: Yes this is blatantly illegal and needs to stop
5th Circus Judge: I am overturning the previous judge’s block while we hear arguments and until SCROTUS makes a decision
SCROTUS: Refuses to take up the case
Good! Lawsuits TEND to STOP 34 Time Convicted FELON Trump!
They do. Slowly, imperfectly, and some of the time.
It’s worth doing in parallel with other efforts.
What other efforts tho
Mostly, an effort to shift public opinion against the federal attack on citizens, to in turn pressure Trump
I salute the effort but despair over the fact that the government has to be pressured to enforce the law.
