“The courts will stop all of this! Just wait for the lawsuits!”
What You Say
Courts have blocked some orders — birthright citizenship, parts of Schedule F — but litigation takes years while harm is immediate. Workers are fired today. Grants are frozen today. A Supreme Court that granted presidents criminal immunity isn't a reliable backstop. Democracy can't survive on lawsuit roulette.
The Stab
You don't put out a fire by filing paperwork.
