The provision would bar courts from enforcing contempt citations for violations of injunctions or temporary restraining orders unless a bond has been paid.
Genuinely serious. Jackson is Trump’s favorite President for a reason: he exposed that under a determined enough man with enough popular support behind him, neither Congress nor the SCOTUS can actually do anything about a President acting in contravention of a court order. If the SCOTUS says “this bill is unconstitutional”, will it stop anyone from actually acting like it’s in force?

Well good news, he’s not actually that popular. I’m baffled that he’s still got an aggregate 47% approval rating, but even faux news’ poll has him down to 44% and he was only above 50% in poling for less than a 2 weeks after he came into office.
And that’s all before the most recent news about the medicare/medicaid slashing. And ahead of the coming wave of layoffs due to the economy slowing down. The policies he’s trying to enact are going to (slowly) erode what support he still has as his base realizes just how fucked they are.
The issue is more: will it matter at all?
