As the Trump Administration stands on the edge of openly defying court orders, we fear that we are approaching a constitutional crisis.
In case you missed it: Last week, Trump failed to stop a flight from traveling with immigrants to Venezuela after a judge ordered the planes back. After the aircraft landed, El Salvador's president, Nayib Bukele, posted on X, "Oopsie…too late," which was then reposted by the White House’s director of communications.
In retaliation for the court order against his deportations, Trump called for the impeachment of the federal judge, drawing a stark rebuke from GOP-appointed Supreme Court Justice John Roberts.
This is just another example of how wannabe King Trump is working to challenge checks and balances so he can have free reign to dismantle our democracy. We must stay alert.
Shontel Brown is proud to be elected as the Congresswoman for Ohio’s 11th District. She has spent the last decade serving the people of Ohio and building coalitions. As she enters her second full term in Congress, she will use that experience to continue the fight for affordable quality health care, jobs that pay fair wages, a strong public education system, and to preserve and protect our democracy for generations to come. Will you join her and be the change we need?
