I disagree with you that the article is fair.

It states, but tries to hide the fact, that the deportation occurred during the Obama administration, and certainly doesn’t mention him by name. It’s not until the 10th paragraph that it stated that, “Maslenjak’s citizenship was revoked. She and her husband were deported to Serbia last October.” It’s left to the reader to realize the date of the article and the date mentioned means that this happened during the Obama administration.

If a deportation occurred late in a Republican administration’s term, the thrust of the story would be completely different.

Like many SCOTUS stories this one was about the arguments made in the court, not the underlying matter.

I'm sorry the author didn't highlight the issue you wanted him to but this approach is normal for court stories.
