“The US has brought charges against coffee boy Jimmy McTwiddledumb, who just started as an intern 4 weeks ago, in regard to the illegal actions taken by this administration. The administration admitted McTwiddledumb was the sole person responsible for all actions the court has taken issue with.”
Great
Actual consequences…?
My expectations are extremely low
“The US has brought charges against coffee boy Jimmy McTwiddledumb, who just started as an intern 4 weeks ago, in regard to the illegal actions taken by this administration. The administration admitted McTwiddledumb was the sole person responsible for all actions the court has taken issue with.”
The next day: McTwiddledumb has been pardoned
The week after that: the same or another person is again found in contempt, because the ruling of the court has’t been enforced.
Some legal interpretations say that contempt of court is not a pardonable offense. I don’t know if those are prevailing in the US.
New executive order: contempt of court can be pardoned.
New court order: this power belongs to the legislative branch, order invalid. :)
