Unfortunately the only way to arrest a president is the impeachment process. Which wont happen with a republican super majority. Unless you can get Republicans to grow a spine there is no other legal process to hold the President accountable.
However I’m not sure about those employed by in his administration. But then again if he’s willing to pardon Jan 6th rioters he will definitely pardon people in his administration…
Actually the only way to arrest anyone is with physical restraints. Trump can blather all he wants once the cuffs are on, but hogtied is hogtied no matter how you slice him.
I mean I think at least in theory the court has the ability to use the US Marshalls to enforce a court order. And I also believe they can deputize others to enforce those orders instead in case the Marshalls end up answering to the DoJ instead of the judges.
Sure. But the same is NOT true for everyone below the president. More people might push back on Trump’s illegal orders if they know there’s actual consequences for it.
The first part is still right. In a sane world, this is where the court starts to enforce that it is a co equal branch, per the constitution.
But we left the sane world a decade ago so… who knows.

Idk if those rules apply anymore.
It doesn’t seem like rules apply in this country anymore, and whoever wins the current war will decide what was legal retroactively.
