NEW: Federal judge orders the Trump admin. to stop expelling immigrant children who cross the southern border alone, halting a policy that has resulted in thousands of rapid deportations of minors during the coronavirus pandemic.

whether it will keep trying to expel immigrants under public-health authority. Biden is expected to roll back several Trump administration policies restricting asylum as part of a broader shift on immigration.

The Trump administration has argued in court that it must expel children who have recently crossed the border — whether they had authorization or not — to prevent the infection of border agents and others in immigration custody. The emergency declaration was made by Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Justice Department on Oct.

Opponents of the policy accuse the administration of using the pandemic as a pretext to restrict immigration and say agents can safely screen minors for COVID-19 without denying protections under federal anti-trafficking law and a court settlement that governs the treatment of children. U.S. Magistrate Judge G. Michael Harvey recommended on Sept. 25 that Sullivan grant an injunction barring expulsions of children, saying the government was claiming power that was “breathtakingly broad.”

Children and parents who have been expelled have reported believing they would be allowed to reunite with family in the U.S., only to instead be deported to their countries of origin.when she received a call from an official in Honduras asking her to send a relative to collect them.and his wife to feed the girl ice in case their temperatures were checked before boarding a flight. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has denied using ice as an artificial cooling measure.

Would you believe:Biden’s margin of victory in this batch of votes (99.9%) bested Bashar al-Assad’s 2007 margin (97.6%) and Raul Castro’s 2008 margin (99.4%). It matched Kim Jong-il’s 2009 margin (99.9%).

God's Watching Trump! You're in Deep Trouble!

Deport the brats. We aren’t responsible for them.

ANOTHER LEFT-WING 'ROGUE' JUDGE!

why aren’t the progressives taking care of those unaccompanied children? invite those kids into progressives’s homes? feed them. house them. give them a warm bed. millionaires elizabeth warren and bernie sanders are quiet lol not like they’ll ever do it. all talk no action

It's crazy how people think letting people come over illegally is okay. They obviously are pretty uneducated on how letting a whole wave of illegals into our country would not only impact our economy, but eventually maybe their own job.

We can't turn them away. And we can't just turn them loose to roam the country with no parents or guardian. That means they're going to end up in cages. Great ruling, judge.

Let em all come in, it’s more votes for the Dems. To hell with laws

Biden will leave them on the streets like Pelosi

Is there a law somewhere that says kids coming across the border illegally are allowed to stay? Or is this judge just pulling decisions our of his ass?

So the U.S. government was just dropping children off in the middle of nowhere?
