handed President Joe Biden a victory Thursday, ruling that he can shut down a Trump administration program designed to restrict immigration at the southern border.
The court said in a 5-4 ruling that the Biden administration acted properly in seeking to end the"Remain in Mexico" policy, formally known as the Migrant Protection Protocols. It required people seeking asylum at the southern border, mainly from Central America, to wait in Mexico while their claims were decided., more than 68,000 people were shuttled back to Mexico. Tent cities sprang up near border entry stations on the Mexican side of the border.
Immediately after taking office, Biden ordered an end to the program. He cited the dangerous conditions along the border, the difficulty migrants faced in getting help from lawyers in the United States and the complications the program produced for America’s foreign policy dealings with Mexico. Biden quickly shut it down, but Texas and Mississippi sued. They said the Trump-era program vastly reduced the surge of migrants at the southern border, decreasing the numbers coming from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras by 80 percent. A federal court in Texas ruled for the states.
U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk for the Northern District of Texas said federal law required the government to send asylum-seekers back to Mexico if there was no room to detain them and if they cannot safely be allowed to wait in the U.S. for their claims to be evaluated. The Biden Department of Homeland Security, the judge said, failed to offer a sufficiently detailed explanation for why it wanted to abandon the policy.
Can't help but ask how much the Judge got for that act of kindness ? How can anyone sit back and let such acts go unpunished ?
For $$ or Fear. this president doesn’t know what is actually happening out there. He is just following orders. That’s not a President that was elected to lead a great Nation!!
Morning_Joe Supreme Court made this decision so Biden would be caught between a rock amd hard place. If he doesn’t open the border extreme leftists will be upset. If he opens the border Fox will roast him. SCOTUS knows it’s a “no win” either way for Biden. SCOTUS is purely political now.
AngieNBCLA In the midst of USA losing our sovereignty bravo! 👏👏👏
Funny how Biden originally told immigrants 'don't come to the border'.
thereidout End Title 42
Morning_Joe
Democrats have no intention of enforcing our border laws. As a result of this ruling they will fuck up royally on border issues in the next few months, and make things even worse. This ruling will expose their failures and result in another win for Republicans in November.
🤣keep it up
We will need the immigrants for World War 3 in the fall. That's the only reason they are being allowed in. Future front line soldiers when the draft is instituted
Oh yeah, that's totally a winning issue. It's like this administration is a secret Republican plant designed to make literally every other idea and/or candidate look better.
