Trump admin 'thumbs its nose' at Supreme Court


Recommended Posts

In new filings, the Trump administration "says it has no updates" for Judge Xinis about the "efforts to facilitate" the return of the wrongly deported man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran migrant , according to Politico's Kyle Cheney.

The admin also claims that the Supreme Court's recent ruling "doesn't compel it to actually seek" the man's release from the prison, and instead only requires the government "to let him into US if he manages to get out.''

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, senior fellow at American Immigration Council, said, "The Trump administration thumbs its nose at the Supreme Court, saying that there is nothing the judge can do to order them to bring Mr. Abrego back."

"They also refuse to provide any information on the deal with Bukele, claiming it’s classified and maybe also a state secret," he added.

The Supreme Court held 9-0 that Judge Xinis’s 'order properly requires the Government to ‘facilitate’ Abrego Garcia's release from custody in El Salvador. Her order was also upheld 3-0 by the 4th Circuit.

Whether or not Garcia is a gangbanger, a strongman violating the law is a step on the road to fascism.

The guy is not a US citizen, we can't force a foreign country to return one of their own citizens to the US, that's just nuts.

All nothing to do with the administration refusing to adhere to a SC ruling.

 

The court also ruled AP should be admitted to the press conferences again, also there the administration refuses to adhere to the ruling.

Thanks for the lack of evidence or reasoning in your comment.

 

Again, obtuse much?

 

The guy is a citizen of another country, we can't demand they return him, PERIOD!

The US can demand they return Kilmar Ábrego García. Of course El Salvador can refuse but I doubt they will seeing the US is paying El Salvador $6m to detain the prisoners, plus Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised Bukele as "not only the strongest security leader in our region, he's also a great friend of the U.S." 

During a press conference with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele on Monday, the Associated Press reported that Trump passed the buck to Attorney General Pam Bondi, who said she would "facilitate" García's return by ensuring a plane was available. Bukele, however, said he would not release a terrorist to the U.S. Garcia, however , has never been convicted of being a terrorist.

"The Abrego Garcia case is the crisis moment," wrote Jacob Levy, Tomlinson Professor of Political Theory at McGill University

"An [sic] firm, open commitment to the destruction of habeas corpus — the creation of a new rule that says anyone the administration orders ICE to seize can be shoved onto a flight to a torture prison in another country and there's nothing any US court can do about it— destroys constitutionalism," he alleged.

"The fact that the administration is, *at the same time,* announcing an intention to include US citizens in the shipments to El Salvador makes it all the more plain and open — the rule they're embracing in the Ábrego García case already includes citizens by implication," Levy continued.

Trump admin 'thumbs its nose' at Supreme Court

You mean like Biden thumbed his nose when the Supreme Court told him he can't forgive student loan debt? 

 

Show me a president that hasn't pushed back against the courts.   If it wasn't Trump doing it, it would be fine...

 

Then tell me how Trump's going to take a citizen of El Salvador out of that country when President Bukele politely declined Bondi's offer to send a plane to pick him up.  Okay, I fudged a little with the "politely" thing.  He was pretty hilarious about it.
