Donald Trump is once again proving he believes the rules don’t apply to him.
After evading justice in myriad criminal and civil trials, bailed out by the
nation’s deplorable voters, he, Elon Musk, and Vice President JD Vance are
signaling to their supporters open defiance of the courts, dismissing legal
rulings they don’t like, and daring judges to hold them accountable.

From gag orders to subpoena deadlines, Trump’s strategy is clear: ignore the
courts and act as if he’s above the law. Why not? The Supreme Court recently
signaled he was. Yet with a Republican Party and Congress too afraid to
challenge him, it’s up to the courts—and us, the public—to hold him accountable.

His growing defiance of the courts is leading us to a constitutional crisis, a
dangerous precedent that threatens the very foundation of our democracy. If
Trump is allowed to get away with ignoring legal authority, what does that mean
for our system of checks and balances? Will he ignore Supreme Court rulings?
Will he toss aside constitutional provisions he doesn’t like, starting with
birthright citizenship, and leading to … presidential term limits?

Trump’s growing disregard for the law is a flashing red warning sign for our
democracy. That’s why independent journalism is more important than ever.

the enablers, and mobilize progressives to take action. But we rely almost
