A federal judge warned of “consequences” if the Trump administration violated court orders, but did not specify what those consequences would be or what it would take for the judge to enact them.

    It’s cool that you’ll get no-knock raided for missing a date at county court, but these guys can do whatever they want and only get “warned of consequences”

    If the justice system worked the same way for everyone as it did for trump, it would be no different than not existing at all.

      If the judiciary didn’t exist at all, you know there would be some vigilante justice being meted out on a regular basis.

      Just saying.

    They already did. Why is there all these warnings and super warnings and ultimatums. Because there are separate laws for us and them.

    Anyone wanna guess what those “Consequences” are going to be?

    • A sternly worded written order DEMANDING compliance, with random words in ALL CAPS to show how serious they are this time.
    • A repeat of the orders demanding compliance, but adding the words “OR ELSE” to the end.
    • A $1000 fine for the first dozen or so violations, followed by nothing at all.
    • A contempt of court charge for Trump that actually can’t be enforced because he’s the sitting President.
    • A press release saying that Trump needs to abide by the court’s decisions.
    • Absolutely fucking nothing at all.
