Folks, this is a real constitutional crisis in the making. The contempt power is the only tool judges have to enforce their rulings. Ultimately, a federal judge can order a contemnor arrested by US Marshals, and jailed. And this is criminal, not civil, contempt. Question: does a conviction for criminal contempt satisfy the requirement of “high crimes and misdemeanors” the Constitution requires for impeachment?
This is going to get worse before it gets better.
