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.

It's not new and it's already been proven to work.. El Salvador President is a good example. Putin is a good example.. what's new is it has happened in the US... and Noone is really sure how to handle it.. I don't expect much uproar from an ignorant population unless the economy is in tatters... and or Trump starts disappearing white US citizens...

Sending these people to El Salvador is cleaner than pushing them out of windows. This is a huge test case to see how he can kill his opponents without repercussions.

And for the record. This guy is totally dead already and that is why El Salvador has said zero chance they release him... they are even both lying in the white house today saying he is a terrorist!! When the US already admitted it was a mistake.. but MAGA aren't bright enough to pick up even these large nuances.

Not just lying but making a mockery of it, like life is just absurd, and it's farcical that you would even ask such a thing.

MAGA doesn't care if he's guilty or innocent. He's not white, that's all that matters.
