Listen "What Happens If a President Ignores the Supreme Court?"
Episode Synopsis
In this powerful clip from See You In Court Episode 47, Professor Stephen Vladeck tackles a critical—and unsettling—question: What happens if a president simply ignores a Supreme Court ruling?
Professor Vladeck breaks down the legal and institutional consequences if the federal government stops following court orders, including the collapse of criminal prosecutions, civil enforcement, and basic constitutional protections. He also draws a direct line between recent violations of lower court rulings—such as the deportations under the Alien Enemies Act—and the dangers ahead.
While he cautions against overstating the risk, Vladeck reminds us: fidelity to the rule of law must be a red line for voters, Congress, and every American.
