I think the subtext is "Excuse me - we enforce the laws, not you!" from the Court. Judges never like being ignored or feeling like their authority is being undermined, which the current US Government is making quite a habit of.
As a corollary, note that the prisoner's defence lawyer provided by the US Military appears to be doing his job. That soldier looks like an honourable man.
