The Biden administration is using a Trump-era rule to justify expelling asylum seekers before they have a chance to file a claim

Over the weekend, around 3,300 Haitians in the Del Rio encampment were apprehended and either sent to detention centers or put on flights back home, said U.S. Border Patrol chief Raul Ortiz. The agency expects to remove the remaining asylum seekers within the week. The U.S. government is able to quickly expel migrants without giving them a chance to file their asylum claim because of a Trump-era CDC rule called Title 42. The directive, which was established in March 2020 and overrides all other federal laws, uses an obscure 1944 public-health statute to justify indefinitely closing the border to “nonessential travel,” even though the statute had never been used to regulate immigration before.

Biden admin outlines response to surge of Haitian migrants at borderDHS Sec. Mayorkas delivers remarks at U.S.-Mexico border on surge of Haitian migrants: 'If you come to the United States illegally, you will be returned. Your journey will not succeed.' Stop just repeating this garbage! What they are doing IS NOT ILLEGAL. IT IS A GUARANTEED HUMAN RIGHT UNDER US AND INTERNATIONAL LAW. The actions by DHS, ICE, & CBP are not just illegal, they are also explicitly human rights violations. So much for being different from the Trump administration. No surprises there,for the 🌎 most undesirable inhabitants,those of African decent. Just saying.

France's Macron to talk to Biden amid crisis over submarinesPresident Emmanuel Macron will speak in the coming days with President Joe Biden in what will be their first contact since a major diplomatic crisis erupted between France and the United States over a submarine deal with Australia, an official said Sunday. The phone call is at the request of Biden, government spokesman Gabriel Attal said, adding that there was “shock” and “anger” at first. What the French now call a “grave crisis” erupted over the sudden, surprise end to a 2016 contract worth at least $66 billion between France and Australia to build 12 conventional diesel-electric submarines.

Biden pitching partnership after tough stretch with alliesPresident Joe Biden pledged a more collaborative international approach from the U.S. But as he prepares to speak at the United Nations this week, he is at odds with allies on a number of high-profile issues, including vaccines, Afghanistan and China. Tyranny Joe will get everything he wants. Suggestion: Fire Blinken. He’s not a good Secretary of State. Then, start treating the continent of Europe with respect and consideration. We’ve been taking them for granted the past 25 years. The UK is NOT Europe. What it looks like now that 'the adults' are back in the room: —7 kids murdered by a hellfire missile —13 US Service Members killed by ISIS —12,000 illegals huddled under a bridge —243-year-old ally recalled their ambassador 'Don't underestimate Joe's ability to F*** things up'
