Supreme Court Ignored: Is America in a Constitutional Crisis?
The Trump administration, ordered by the Supreme Court to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from El Salvador’s CECOT prison, instead feigned compliance. The administration, along with Salvadoran President Bukele, engaged in a disingenuous exchange, shifting responsibility for Garcia’s repatriation. This action, stemming from the mass deportation of individuals with negligible evidence of criminal activity, demonstrates blatant disregard for the Supreme Court’s ruling. The administration’s assertion that this is a matter of foreign policy, not subject to judicial review, represents a dangerous expansion of executive power, potentially jeopardizing the rights of American citizens. This defiance of a Supreme Court order underscores a growing trend of presidential lawlessness, leaving the Court to determine whether to uphold the Constitution or condone such actions.
