The Trump administration just shut down a food safety committee to prevent bacteria in baby formula.

"If Trump proceeds in open defiance of the courts he will risk turning the huge asset of a politicized rightwing Supreme Court into a liability. More importantly, Trump may call into immediate question the legitimacy of his own authority." @davidrlurie.bsky.social on our grim future. Hold on tight.
Mitch McConnell custom-packed the courts for Trump; but now Trump and Musk want to defy judges. The price for that defiance could be huge for Trumpers, and the nation, as I discuss in PN.
Trump is assaulting his own legitimacy
Defying the courts could bring a steep cost.
