Here again is a good test of judges. Do they actually care about justice? Many don't. What about this one?

They care about money

I doubt they would have interfered with these flights if they didn't care.

I'm sure the threats are building right now. We'll see where loyalty lies.

When you elect a convicted felon who went through no rehabilitation or consequences, expect judges' orders to be ignored. When you spoil an immature rich kid, don't expect them to act appropriately in society with the other adults.

So this is it, then, yeah? Either the judge's order gets enforced, or the pretense of caring about the judicial branch is gone and we either revolt en masse or accept fascism? What other options do we have?

That's about it, (and I think we already know the answer).

They're arguing the planes were over international waters by the time the judge's order went through. That's bullshit, but it does imply they still want to have some kind of argument beyond "what are you going to do about it?"

Stop them here.
