Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Three Co-Equal Branches of government. Seems like the other two branches need to wake up.

So many innocents are going to die in the coming years. I wish I could warn them, but most of them seem to not care at all...
They're on board with it because they think it will only happen to "those people" and will be appalled when it happens to themselves or at least their neighbors and friends and families.
Once this administration defies the courts democracy will be over in the US.
It won't be a one off either, he will then begin doing whatever he wants. Congress will not stop him.
They already have multiple times now, no?
They have, already defied multiple rulings and continue to defy more. It’s crazy to me how few people seem to realize this. Even in this thread.
One example: https://www.npr.org/2025/02/12/nx-s1-5293132/trump-vance-constitutional-crisis-court-rulings
Edit: The fact that major outlets keep phrasing it as a hypothetical isn’t helping.
They've broken the law blatantly and have not reversed some things that they should have, but typically they have stopped doing the action when the courts have ordered it.
So they have sorta, but not outright
President Donald Trump's administration made a calculated decision to ignore a judge's directive to turn around two flights containing hundreds of alleged Venezuelan gang members, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
At least they're still working under pretense and condition. They "can't" turn them around because they're already in route.
It's not good, but they are using a contrived reason. I'm afraid for the day they stop trying to justify it and keep doing it.
Things are getting to that point rapidly
You realize they will always have some sort of “justification”. Heck, saying “ I felt like it” would be a justification.
You’re waiting for a line to be crossed that has already been crossed.
Edit: For your specific cope here: under no legal basis would already having that plane in the air change the legality of the situation. If it was in the air they could’ve and should’ve turned it around.

And as we all know, planes can't turn around. Too bad those Wright brothers couldn't figure that little maneuver out. And it's made air combat in wars very complicated and pointless since planes can't just turn around and get back to where they took off from.
/s
They were literally told to hold on deporting these people, and then said nope we got them in the air already, in under 24 hours. If that's not outright defying the court, I don't know what else we're waiting for.
If they arrest more people after the court order. That will tell us for sure.
I'm not saying things are good right now, they're pretty bleak
