IMO The Dictator of El Salvador looks like a spoiled brat gangster's son. Donald J. Trump IS a spoiled brat wanabe gangster's son, so birds of a feather... JP
IN THE UNITED STATES "WE THE PEOPLE" REIGN SUPREME.
THE BIG THING IS WILL TRUMP SUCCEED IN NULLIFYING RULE OF LAW Making himself DICTATOR?
“In a 1911 ruling, in Gompers v. Buck’s Stove & Range Co., the Supreme Court described the need for courts to be able to enforce their orders through contempt but do so sparingly.
“The power of courts to punish for contempts is a necessary and integral part of the independence of the judiciary, and is absolutely essential to the performance of the duties imposed on them by law,” the opinion says. “Without it, they are mere boards of arbitration, whose judgments and decrees would only be advisory."
The justices warned that without the power of contempt, the authority of the court would be derided.
"If a party can make himself a judge of the validity of orders which have been issued, and by his own disobedience set them aside," the opinion warns, "then are the courts impotent, and what the Constitution now fittingly calls the ‘judicial power of the United States’ would be a mere mockery.”

“Van Hollen said that the case of Ábrego García marks a turning point for the Trump administration because the president is refusing to follow an order from the nation’s highest court – something Democrats have long warned he will do.
‘What they have not overtly done previously is outright defy a court order,’ Van Hollen said. ‘They’ve slow-walked court orders, they’ve tried to parse their words based on technicalities, they’ve not outright defied a court order. In my view, this now clearly crosses that line.”

In breaking news, a Federal Judge is poised to find the Trump Administration in contempt for refusing to comply with her orders to “facilitate” the release of Armando Abrego Garcia from a El Salvadoran jail, telling the lawyer that the Government has “done nothing” to comply with her orders, and that the should expect to “buckle up” and cancel all plans as the Court is working 24/7 on this case for 2 weeks of “intensive discovery” and depositions before she rules on the contempt motion. Michael Popok explains why the Judge has delayed for now finding the Administration in contempt, while walking them directly into a trap to do so once a proper record is laid by Plaintiff’s counsel, but in the meantime, Mr. Garcia is “irreparably harmed” for another 15 days or more of illegal capture.
