The article discusses how Donald Trump's refusal to comply with a Supreme Court order to return a deported Salvadoran national reflects larger concerns about governance in the U.S. It highlights the breakdown of checks and balances, noting that Trump appears to operate with minimal constraints. His actions, part of a trend of expanding presidential powers through executive orders, raise alarms among legal scholars, as ignoring court orders represents a significant deviation from established norms within the government framework.
The Supreme Court has told Donald Trump to bring back a man his administration has deported to a prison in El Salvador. It doesn't look like Trump is going to comply.
We have entered uncharted waters: The president, who is supposed to govern alongside Congress and the court system, now appears to be acting with next to no constraints.
Ignoring court orders is a completely different ballgame, and a very rare one, as many legal scholars note with increasing alarm.
Some of what Trump is doing is a super-charged extension of what presidents have been doing for decades - expanding powers originally meant to be at least partially the domain of Congress.
