Leah Litman: 🚨 This is the President openly announcing that he will violate court orders [View all]

ðŸš¨ðŸš¨ðŸš¨ðŸš¨ðŸš¨

This is the President openly announcing that he will violate court orders - two courts had concluded that the Trump regime withholding SNAP funding was illegal - and that the government had to pay out (at least reduced) SNAP benefits starting this week

Openly announcing he will be flouting court orders the day before SCOTUS hears argument on the lawfulness of the tariffs is ... interesting?

(Thus far, SCOTUS hasn't cared about the government's apparent defiance of lower court orders.)
