Fun fact, it’s not illegal to refuse an illegal order from the president, but it IS illegal to refuse any judicial order even if it’s ultimately deemed illegal.

Not that the law matters anymore, of course.

Yea. Amy order from a judge is deemed to be legal.

On the other hand, in extreme cases, I'd hope they ignore the judges order to massacre the village.
