The article critiques the actions of the Trump administration and Chief Justice John Roberts, particularly regarding the rendition of Kilmar Albrego Garcia to El Salvador. It argues that a series of legal and constitutional violations are occurring, including the invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to justify the removal of several hundred individuals. The piece highlights a dissenting opinion from Harvie Wilkinson, emphasizing that while vigorous executive energy can correct governmental sluggishness, it risks significant abuse, particularly when it undermines judicial authority and due process.
