Did you not read the article? They’re facing contempt of court charges and have until the 23rd to support their defense. If the DoJ refuses to enforce the charges, the judge said he’ll appoint an attorney to do so.
I read the article. I've also seen what's happened so far when judges have sanctioned or ruled against Trump ... and nothing happens.
No members of his administration have been charged yet. Courts are slow. They ordered injunctions, which were defied. The judges didn’t hold them in contempt to prevent evidence of bias prior to a ruling. As of yesterday, they have defied rulings. Today, they set the contempt of court charge in motion. This is how the courts work.
Been hearing this shit for years. The Ukraine call, stealing classified documents, the election interference, the insurrection. When they finally got a conviction the judge wasn't even allowed to punish Trump.
So this is time they're serious? Yeah I'll believe it when I see it.
This is very different. These are the active checks and balances of our government, not a criminal case against a former president. This is necessary for our government to function.
