If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal.
If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that's also illegal.
Judges aren't allowed to control the executive's legitimate power.

President Trump demolishes Fake News "reporter" @svdate on Air Force One:
POTUS: "I don't know even what you're talking about. Neither do you. Who are you with?"
@svdate: "HuffPost, sir."
POTUS: "No wonder. I thought they died."

The president certainly has a way with reporters, doesn't he? Let's talk about the dishonest framing of Date's question, though.
Read what Vance wrote again. Did he ever "suggest" the administration would "enforce it themselves" regarding going around a Supreme Court ruling? Was the Supreme Court even mentioned at all? The answer to all those questions is no. Instead, what Vance did was state a plain fact, at least in his view of the law. Namely, that the judge is out of line in usurping the statutory authority of the executive branch to control the bureaucratic state.
No doubt, the remedy to those things will be an appeal, and when it reaches the Supreme Court, it will likely end up being a bloodbath for the bureaucracy. On that front, Democrats and the press should be careful what they wish for regarding waging these court battles. The only reason Roe v. Wade was overturned is because leftists picked a fight they weren't ready to win over a state law in Mississippi.
Do you know who did brag about ignoring the Supreme Court, though? That would be one Joseph Robinette Biden. //

Vance has the benefit of being correct on the legal point as well. The relief is extra judicial. Not available to the court. Bondi needs to ask for sanctions against the judge at the next level. //

So that's why HuffPo got a seat in the press briefing lineup. For their value as a chew toy.
