the judge should start sending bailiffs to haul every person vioalting the order into court. the orange fascist might be immune but i doubt that his cronies like the idea of spending time locked up. start with the treasury secretary and teh OMB head.

lock them up for civil contempt. there is no pardon ability for it. and the judge can keep them locked up until they comply
