Senator John Kennedy emphasized the importance of obeying federal court rulings during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. He warned Trump's judicial nominees that ignoring such rulings could lead to a collapse of the judiciary's legitimacy. The hearing showcased a division between Democrats and Trump's nominees regarding the rule of law, with Kennedy, a Republican, aligning with the need for respect towards judicial decisions. He criticized attempts by political figures, including Democrats, to undermine the courts and suggested that nominees always prioritize following court orders despite personal disagreements.
I may be wrong but I doubt it. Don't ever, ever take the position that you're not going to follow the order of a federal court. Ever.
For four years, I have watched people try to undermine the legitimacy of the federal judiciary. And it triggered each and every time my gag reflex.
