Enough is enough. President Donald Trump has openly violated the law by defying a direct order from the United States Supreme Court. This isn’t debatable—it is a blatant and unprecedented attack on our Constitution.

Kilmar Abrego García, a Maryland resident legally protected from deportation due to credible fears of persecution, was wrongly deported by Trump’s administration to El Salvador. García was immediately imprisoned in an infamous Salvadoran prison notorious for torture and human rights abuses. When the Supreme Court unanimously demanded Trump return García to the United States immediately, Trump flatly refused.

This act isn’t just unconstitutional—it’s criminal contempt. Trump has declared himself above the law, dangerously undermining the judiciary, the Constitution, and American democracy itself. If the Supreme Court does not act decisively, we risk permanently eroding the checks and balances that protect every American citizen from authoritarian abuse.

We must demand immediate action:

  • Supreme Court: Immediately issue a charge of contempt against President Trump.
  • Congress: Enforce this ruling vigorously and uphold constitutional accountability.
  • Citizens: Protest, call your representatives, and refuse to tolerate executive tyranny.

This isn’t partisan politics; it’s about defending democracy from authoritarianism.

Charge Trump with contempt. Enforce the rule of law. Defend our Constitution—NOW.

By all means, be angry about this, but nobody will be held in contempt over this. The SC deliberately phrased it “facilitate” his return as a weasel word instead of “effectuate” like the lower court stated, to give them room to wiggle out of actually bringing him back without putting themselves in the position of having to do anything about it.
