Furthermore, the president has given a pardon. Say the Supremes want to review the case. Arpaio can flip them the finger and does not have to respond to anything regarding this case. He has been pardoned.
So maybe they want the US Atty and the Justice department to come present the facts to them.

That’s the executive and Trump can legally order them to not respond because the case is over....HE ended it.

So the Supremes hand out subpoenas and want them executed. The US Marshal Service is executive also, Trump legally orders them to take zero action on the case.
The Supremes have no method to “review” this. They have no authorized power to do this per the constitution.

Yep what you say there is true. Reality usually takes a while to sink in with liberal nut cases.

>> The Supremes have no method to “review” this <<

You’re confusing “review” with enforcement. The SCOTUS can review anything four members vote to review. But can they “enforce” an order just because five justices vote a certain way? Not necessarily.

>> They have no authorized power to do this per the constitution <<

No explicit power is authorized by the text. But the Supremes been making up new powers for themselves ever since the days of John Marshall in the Marbury case (1803). So who knows what power they might dream up next?
