There are now hundreds of lawsuits against the EO’s and ICE and DoJ and firings at agencies etc. So that part of the system is working . But like felon45 there are multiple illegal actions a day - so it’s system overwhelm.

Then repubs in congress are not doing oversight (quite the opposite- front running felon47). So that leg of the stool is broken forcing more on the courts and individuals. Then the media is (mostly) bought off, so the 4th estate is a fraction of the voice it should be. So you are correct more *should* be happening & consequently we are in deep poopoo (to paraphrase a great American).
