Following the Constitution
NEW YORK NIGHTS
As President Donald J. Trump continues to ignore court orders, notably over the banning of certain networks from White House coverage, we recently heard a suggestion that makes so much sense.
Harvard law professor Laurence Tribe pointed out that, although Trump is immune from contempt of court consequences, the people who actually carry out his orders are not. He advocated that contempt charges over the ban be immediately meted out to Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Director of Secret Service Sean Curran and Communications Director Steven Cheung. According to Professor Tribe, they can be charged, tried and imprisoned for up to six months by the judge alone.
We call on Judge Timothy Kelly and any other judge whose orders are being ignored to do exactly that. Trump’s justice may have to wait until he is out of office, but his absurd immunity does not carry over to his abetting minions. Start implementing constitutional law now!
