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.''

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...

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?
