Democrats and the media have been hounding the administration of President Donald Trump to get El Salvador to send back alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien.

Many of them have insisted that the Supreme Court ordered the administration to bring the alleged wife-beater back, but it is not that simple.

The Supreme Court’s order was pretty vague and has given the Trump administration the ability to claim that it had a 9 – 0 decision in its favor, and it has a strong case.

Even CNN legal analyst Paula Reid said that the administration has complied with the order as it is written when she spoke to hist Jake Tapper.

“President Trump and President Bukele, made it clear that Abrego Garcia will not be returned to the United States despite this U.S. Supreme Court ruling saying that Trump had to facilitate his return. So are they just ignoring a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, or is the fact that the ruling was so mushy, in your words giving him an opening?” the host said before Reid responded.

“Yes. It’s a technical term I learned in law school, Jake. Mushy. Look, they’re working within the ambiguity that the Supreme Court justices gave them. They did not order the administration to return him to the United States. They said that they need to facilitate this return. They could have said, we order him return, but they didn’t do that. So you heard the attorney general. She was being very careful in the Oval Office. When she was asked, you know, would you help? She says, of course, we’d provide a plane, right? Thereby facilitating whatever El Salvador is doing,” the legal analyst said.

“The Supreme Court appeared to defer to the executive branch given that this is an international matter. And you see, yes, it does look a little bit like a semantic game, but they are playing within the bounds of what the Supreme Court ruled. So, no, they are not defying this order,” she said.
