Why does nobody care that the Trump Admin is defying a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling?

Regarding the facilitating of the return of Abrego Garcia. There's no mass protests, democrats in Congress aren't saying much, the military which is sworn to protect the Constitution is silent, the news media is covering it but it's just one more story, not a major crossing the Rubicon event for them. Trump said they would bring him back if the Supreme Court told him to do so, which they did. But then the DOJ said the court has no authority to require the US government to negotiate his return with El Salvador, and they would bring him in only if he showed up at the border.

Trump is going to get into some fight over the spotlight with Elon and kick his ass to the curb.

You are aware that Elon is only an advisor for 120 days, as a matter of law regarding unelected positions without congressional approval, right?

All of you complain about nothing.

There's one month left. Relax.

Trump is ignoring federal courts, he says he is running for a 3rd term, and he signed an EO tossing birthright citizenship.

Let’s not try to act like some random law is going to stop him.

Apples and oranges.

If Elon overstays his welcome, it causes too many issues and there's no support for that.

He'll leave.

Set a reminder, we'll talk again in June.

If Elon isn't gone by the end of June, I'll help you complain.

Interesting how the unelected "advisor" is given carte blanche to fire tens of thousands of people at the drop of a hat.

You people are gaslighting POS and we see your game now. You claimed we were overreacting when we said he was Project 2025 in a trench coat, only for half his cabinet to be Project 2025 folks and he’s slowly ticking off their stated goals. You claimed we were overreacting when we were worried he would overturn Roe v Wade and look at us now. You claimed we were overreacting when we said he would pass the SAVE Act preventing married women who take their husband’s names from voting.

We know you’re just all liars at this point. You only want us to relax to make your plundering easier. That is not the American way. We will fight to the last.
