Donald Trump took one step closer today to openly defying a Supreme Court order—effectively daring the justices to defend the law or pack up and go home, @dgraham.bsky.social writes in The Atlantic Daily.

Worse, we stepped off the cliff today. Trump and Bukele 100% had the ability to arrange a plane flight. They chose not to, they derided the court's opinion, and they talked about expanding the program to include "home growns."

"One step closer?" What else do you think he has to do to actually "openly defy" a Supreme Court order? SCOTUS said the man was deported illegally and needs to be returned to the US. Trump won't. So... ???? Seems like we're at "openly defying."

We can hope that SCOTUS will do the right thing and hold them all in contempt of court, have them arrested, and impeached. If they don't, they gave away their power and the people must take action. It's also grounds for the military to step in when the government become ineffectual.
