      The local police who are deferential to the judicial. That’s how and why they can arrest people. The executive does not decide this.

      Am I living in a universe where people just aren’t tought these things in school?

        Welcome to the constitutional sherrifs movement where they are the law. The only law. Where they chose what is legal and right. They are above any federal law, system, etc.

        Also, see: JD Vance saying trump can ignore the courts. And the numerous ‘signs your gov is authoritarian/fascist’ lists which include stacking/ignoring courts because, who is going to arrest the president? Especially when the supremacists/nationalists have been infiltrating police forces for well over a decade.

        The way things ought are no longer applicable.

        I don’t know what universe you’re living in, but it isn’t the normal one because you’re wrong.

        The local police are part of the executive branch of the local government. Not judicial.

        That fundamental lack of understanding goes a long way to explain why you keep delusionally insisting that judges can enforce the law.
