Trump Asks Supreme Court to Block Return of Wrongly Deported Man

The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court for emergency intervention in the case of a Maryland man the government -- by its own admission -- removed to El Salvador by mistake and now must return by 11:59 p.m. on Monday under a lower court's order.

Two federal courts have now ordered the Trump admin to return Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia to his US citizen wife and child in Maryland. The admin already admitted they wrongly deported him. They cannot continue defying judicial rulings. Bring Kilmar back NOW. www.cnn.com/2025/04/07/p ...

"The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the Trump administration's emergency motion to block the order to return Garcia to the U.S. after he was sent to a prison in El Salvador despite having protected legal status.''

Kings don't take orders from Courts.

The cruelty is the point.

The constitution is the point.

I guess you two Einsteins didn't actually read the article.

Trump denied a man his 5th amendment right to due process. That's the point.

I guess you didn't read the constitution, Copernicus.

"The constitution is the point."

The constitution wasn't the point when he was being deported, but now it suddenly matters...

jajaja!

Of course, your Cult Leader knows more about the Constitution than does the SC, right?

"The Constitution charges the President, not federal district courts, with the conduct of foreign diplomacy and protecting the Nation against foreign terrorists, including by effectuating their removal"

That's not what happened in this case.
There was no foreign terrorist removed.

Can the President enter a treaty without Congress?
Can the President declare war without Congress?

Sure seems like Foreign Policy has laws that limit the president's power.

"The constitution is the point."

Even the 5th and 14th amendments? Or is this the usual Cafeteria Conservatism?

That ------ doesn't know what the constitution is.

Trumpers are ------- idiots.

They don't read. They don't know jack about ----.

But, they've got a lot of opinions and they're ------- mad about how ------ their lives are.

So they blame immigrants and homosexuals and democrats and liberals and the left and the progressives.

But you know who they never blame for their ---- lives? Themselves.

They're the dumbest people in America.

"A Justice Department lawyer conceded in a court hearing that Abrego Garcia should not have been deported. Attorney General Pam Bondi later removed the lawyer, Erez Reuveni, from the case and placed him on leave." wtop.com

Very on-message for Trump to fire someone for stating the obvious truth.

The Dems and the left continue to adore making illegals eligible to vote as citizens and seeing Americans raped and harmed by unvetted uninvited outsiders. Corrupt Democrats have no business ever again leading our country. They continue to be the obvious forever threat.

You don't seem to understand the power Congress gave the President.

There are three possible conditions that if one exists gives him power of the Alien Enemies Act.

I told you guys when he declared the cartels as terrorist, this was going to happen.

I posted links to military surveillance on Mexico and the southern border.

It was easy to see what would happen next.

Nope, not what the Court said. They effectively changed venue from DC to the place of detention, Texas. In a direct slap of the Buffoon, they can bring habeas petitions to challenge their detention and removal. In other words, instead of summary removal they get due process before being removed. drudge.com

Yup, Due Process.

What does your current alias think about the FACT that ALL NINE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES agreed and said that Due Process is required?


Supreme Court Rejects Trump's Claim That He Can Summarily Deport Anyone He Describes As an 'Alien Enemy'

... The Supreme Court on Monday unanimously agreed that alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua have a due process right to challenge President Donald Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) to summarily deport them. ...

A Unanimous Opinion.

The court said sure sure your majesty King Trumpy sir!

You can CALL it whatever you want. But due process will be followed. Because it's the LAW.

But you keep trying tho. Keep trying to eliminate or circumvent the third coequal branch of government.

Just remember dummies. The Supreme Court is also a part of that branch and the ultimate arbitrator of the law. And I don't think they are going to go quietly into the dark night of Trumpy's tyranny.

75% of those deported had no record and followed the rules.

Sounds to me like a hell of a class action, especially the longer this plays out.

Good reason as to why he doesn't want them back to expose his criminal negligence.

#29 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-04-09 04:44 PM

Re 29

Don't you have to have permission from the (Federal) government to sue the government? I believe it's covered under the King is Always Right clause of Second Corinthians. And it says so right on the hat. "Trumpy is always right!"

So good luck with that.
