This is the message we need to send at #TeslaTakedown protests today: we know Tesla's trillion dollar valuation is built on fraud and abuse, and we are coming for it. We will make Tesla ownership a taboo, cars and stock, unthinkable to anyone who believes in the basic values of the U.S. constitution

Literal Andrew Jackson backed off that position because he realized it would tear the Union apart, and he threatened to invade South Carolina over nullification a couple years later
For folks who are surprised about, or shocked by, Vance calling on Trump to ignore judges, he’s been saying it for a while but much of our political press wasn’t paying attention:

The idea that President and Congress should be expected to try to get away with whatever they can, and then we rely on the courts to come along and fix everything, seems so completely toxic on its face.
I mean, they ALL take oaths to uphold the Constitution.

This is absolutely--and I cannot stress this enough--not how it is supposed to work. An Executive without functioning internal checks is a constitutional crisis no matter what courts are doing. Courts are a last resort when the Executive is acting unlawfully, and an extremely limited one at that.
