Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor said Tuesday that court decisions “stand whether one particular person chooses to abide by them or not,” days after two of President Donald Trump’s top lieutenants attacked rulings that halted some of his contentious executive orders.

President Donald Trump will need the Supreme Court, with three justices he appointed, to enable the most aggressive of the many actions he has taken in just the first few weeks of his second White House term.

President Donald Trump named three justices in his first term, establishing a conservative supermajority on the Supreme Court. And now, even without an imminent vacancy, Trump is positioned to push the court farther to the right.

Trump called a judge’s ruling blocking political appointees from accessing the Treasury Department’s system a “disgrace.”

President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Elon Musk are not exactly downplaying the possibility of ignoring court orders that stand in their way.
