Thats an older GE breaker I think. In my experience probably 2% of the ones I get are crap tbh. Easy fix though, just swap it. I see stuff like this a lot, either it won’t switch off or trip correctly or just dies.
Pretty normal problem, as an electrician

Just replace it with a coat hanger, now your circuit will never break.

Or a bullet for an audible fuse.

Don’t know if it’s also for the old ones but modern breakers one more layer of safety that won’t let power through if you hold it.
