OK, a roundup response to the "they won't follow the court orders" people.
First of all, you're wrong! The administration *is* following many of the court orders.
What's more, they're showing their understanding of the validity of court orders by seeking stays pending appeal when they lose.

Usually when states go to court alleging federal coercion in violation of the 10th Amendment there is not a literal video of the President doing it.
TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here?
JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here
TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply?
JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law
T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all

This is important. Not because Miller will ever be consistent in his pleadings for presidential power but because it’s a public service to demonstrate to anyone who might entertain a shadow of a doubt that there’s no neutral principle here. He wants power for his guy, full stop.

One thought on the Tik Tok oral argument that I haven't seen addressed after re-listening today.
Much turns on whether and how the Court addresses severability. The divestiture provision is likely not, standing alone, likely to raise any First Amendment issues. Foreign companies have no such right.
