6. I think for the most part they have (after many fits and starts)

BUT remember that some of these rulings were limited to specific jurisdictions applying only to those individuals/organizations and/or states covered by the court where the case was filed and/or would apply specifically to those who filed (even if not domiciled in a state covered by that court), since the SCOTUS basically threw out the ability to do "nationwide injunctions". This is why cases are being resubmitted as "class action" to cover a broader group.

One of the biggest egg-in-face-repercussions though was Kilmar Abrego Garcia due to their original intention to "make an example" out of him for "fear" purposes. This included their bold and boastful insistence that he was "never coming back" to the U.S. and other crap.

And then when that flopped, you have the fact that they were forced to generate fabricated charges to try to save face and even add an insistence that they would deport him as soon as he was released on bond before trial. So when that didn't happen (thanks to his lawyers and very "public" interventions by members of Congress), they not only had (expensive) eggs on their faces, but ended up with some tariff tomatoes thrown at them for good measure. And between that and Epstein, Bondi suddenly disappeared claiming a "corneal tear".

With this loon crowd, the more impactful "repercussions" actually come from the sheer "embarrassment" of being publicly outed, rebuked, and mocked versus any actual "consequences" (including financial) that normal people would receive. The most recent example was of course the recent "South Park" mocking of Noem. She has been knocked back on her heels and has basically been unable to retort other than quip that it "was lazy" and then has tepidly tried to take advantage of the mocking but that is failing.

This is because everything they do is to play to the media because they are nothing but hollow fakes and pathetic former media personalities trying to get their big break.
