Of Armando Abrego Garcia being returned from El Salvador are suddenly dwindling to very sl because of Donald Trump's continued defiance of the United States Supreme Court and the unlikely and the likely event that the Supreme Court wants to cause an international crisis by making an order against an El Salvadorian dictator. President who's already in a scripted moment with the Trump administration said he is not bringing Abrego Garcia back. This has to do with our democracy and not just Donald Trump trying to offload U.S. citizens and others to be housed and stored in an El Salvador in jail. This has to do with whether we're gonna allow the petty dictator of El Salvador dictate how our constitutional republic, how our due process works in this country. We're supposed to be the leaders of the free world, not the petty dictator of El Salvador, the murder capital of the world with a poverty rate exceeding 25%. When did that happen? I'm Michael Popak. You're on Midas Touch Network. Let's talk about this scripted call and response pitch and catch Oval Office ceremony crammed full of cabinet members, including Pam Bondi, the Attorney General of the United States, all there to basically, along with Bukele, the dictator wearing some sort of black T shirt under his suit, all there in a scripted moment, like an oil painting, to tell the Supreme Court and Judge Zinnisin, MD to go F herself. That is what that was. And then use that moment of the, of the pitch and catch between Donald Trump and Bukele where Bukele says out loud, I'm not gonna be smuggling a terrorist back into the United States, even though I have the power, setting up the very confrontation that the Supreme Court, I believe, was trying to avoid in their decision. But they left in a little stray little line, a little, a little clanking part inside of there that Donald Trump grasped onto like it was his last meal, which was a comment about the limits of the district court to be able to order the Trump administration to effectuate the return of Abrego Garcia instead of facilitate, suggesting that there were limits because of the foreign powers exclusivity of the presidential core function. So be careful, they told the court, be careful of what you order and don't verge into this area of foreign affairs, which is the exclusive province of the president. Also. They latched onto that, I'm telling you, like a dog with a bone. Stephen Miller. Oh, we've been, we've been vindicated by the Supreme Court. You can't order us to do anything. It's a sovereign state. And then they started to flip, they started to flip their script and flip their narrative. On Monday or so Donald Trump said out loud to reporters, well, if the Supreme Court ordered me to return somebody, well, I respect the Supreme Court, well, will or will will bring him back? Well, no. Now their position is El Salvador is sovereign. We can't order them to do anything. You can't order me as the president to conduct any type of foreign policy. This is all foreign policy. This is not foreign policy. The only, the only, it's only foreign because Donald Trump decided to delegate and offload and store human beings in El Salvador pursuant to a contract and pay El Salvador $6 million to fill an empty jail. Now, Donald Trump loves that idea so much that he declared out loud at the Oval Office that he's considering sending US Citizen criminals to El Salvador. Sure, why not? There's a little something called cruel and unusual punishment. We're supposed to take care of our prisoners, not other people, based on our morals, our values, our patriotism. We don't abuse, we don't have an inhumane prison system. That's not America. That's the reason you don't want to be in other countries because you end up in their criminal justice system, such as it is and end up in these jails. Now let's go back to this filing that just got made by the Trump administration telling the judge to go f herself every day pursuant to a court order. And there's going to be a hearing today on it about contempt. The judge, Judge Zinnis ordered pursuant to her empowering the empowerment of a Supreme Court decision. That said you are responsible for administrating justice in that courtroom. You're doing the right thing. The nine zero Supreme Court said just Judge Zinnis, you are doing the right thing to preserve the due process rights, the constitutional fifth Amendment rights of Abrego Garcia. We like everything about your order, continue to monitor and keep the government's feet to the fire. But there's limits. We know this Supreme Court, they're going to back down against Donald Trump on this foreign affairs and foreign policy issues. And Trump has created it and turned it into and morphed it into a foreign policy issue. Sub sovereign El Salvador, sovereign US we can't tell him what to do. Sure you can. You have a contractor. You're paying him $6 million. Use diplomacy to get it back. Oh, you can't order me to use diplomacy. And you can see the flip script in a comment made by Pam Bondi who is in the packed into this room for this photo op. She's the head of the Department of Justice. Here's her message to Judge Zinnis. With the hearing coming up today, let's play Pam Bondi.
