Asylum Official Demoted As Trump Escalates Efforts To Make Cuts To Program

The head of the asylum division at the Citizenship and Immigration Services agency will be reassigned to work as the deputy director of a processing center in Arlington, Virginia, Politico reported.


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1246503

Trump is convinced that migrants who seek asylum are taking advantage of the system to stay in the U.S. and work legally.

Trump who was raised on ways to game the system is complaining about gaming the system?
Trump who lies at each and every opportunity is convinced that others who claim that their lives are in danger are liars.
Trump hasn’t figured out how to milk more money from desperate people, and so he let’s his hatred of brown skin poor people determine their treatment and fate.

Just one click over to WaPo confirmed that the earth continues to spin on its axis and that Stephen Miller continues to make staffing decisions at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services . Let’s just out him in charge of HHS and cut the fat, amirite??

Lafferty, who was in charge of the asylum division for six years, will be replaced by Andrew Davidson, who is currently the deputy associate director of the department’s fraud detection and national security division.

So in other words, the guy dates back to the previous administration. Reason enough for him to be forced to go or forced out of his position as far as tRump’s concerned. Only surprised it too them this long. Only the most corrupt, lickspittle yes-men are allowed into those positions now.

Says alot about Andrew Davidson

Just want to say thanks to all the Trump voters, the third-party voters, the voters who didn’t vote, all you fucks really did the nation a favor. Hope you’re happy, idiots.

Yep. There’s a lot of toilet drinkers (by choice) in that bunch.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if “Toilet Drinkers” was the the new “Tea Party” battle cry and Trump supporters started posting videos of them drinking out of toilets?

I guess there are no asylum seekers working at Trump properties, then. Good to know.

Disagree with trump, get fired or demoted. Any bets on how long till the new guy says or does something that shows complete ignorance of asylum law?

Twitler’s hatred of The Brown is a lot older than Miller.
More’s the pity.

Did he draw a fake bubble showing migrants kicking back in gated communities in Beverly Hills and the Hamptons on their welfare checks and Medicaid benefits? It’s the least I’d expect from him.

Nobody is allowed to game the system except Spankee himself. Or his Evil Spawn. And maybe a couple of his cronies.

Everybody else is just being uppity. :smirk:

I have never in my life wished so wholeheartedly that someone would get flattened by a bus as much as I wish Stephen Miller would. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Guess I’m gonna have to focus more energy on stabbing his voodoo doll…

Problem is: there will be someone to take his place. Medusa taught me that.

No doubt. But thinking of him smeared all over the pavement… :roll_eyes:

(I am an old lady, I get squeamish killing mosquitos, but I have a real blood thirst for Spankee, his Evil Spawn (son-in-law included), #MoscowMitch, and Stephen Miller…)
