Discussion: Trump Admin Asks SCOTUS To Enforce Asylum Ban

It is ludicrous in the extreme that some clown on the 9th circuit is now making national immigration policy in the place of POTUS and the Congress. SCOTUS should immediately make all 9th circuit orders review by Kavanaugh and Roberts.

“An American Civil Liberties Union lawyer said the administration’s plea to the high court is an effort to short-circuit the normal judicial process.” The “normal judicial process” has never included rogue judges on the 9th making national policy.

Melania came under false pretences (tourist, not work visa), so doesn’t that make her, her offspring, and her parents all illegals who should be deported post-haste?

Except that is not what is happening. Judges are examining the constitutionality of Trump administration policies, and stopping their implementation when they are not in accordance with the Constitution or prior jurisprudence. That is what they are supposed to do, there’s nothing ludicrous without it, and without judicial review this president could do whatever he wanted (since Congress refuses to do its job and hold him in check).

The judges are not making policy, they are ensuring the policies are legal…the problem rests with an administration that keeps making policies that don’t conform to our laws.

In order to request asylum, one need to do so in almost all circumstances on US soil. Trump’s request that such applications can only occur on foreign soil renders the binding asylum law void. This is a ludicrous legal position.

Are you engaging in satire? Or are you so stupid that you don’t understand our judicial and legal system?

Yes.

And these particular judges are not all “liberals.” Jay Bybee, for example, signed off on the Bush Administration’s “torture memos” in 2002. If Trump’s ban on asylum-seekers is too much for him to accept …

You know dear Trumpy if you want to act in good faith how about showing the court and the ACLU how you’ve ramped up staffing at "legal’ ports of entry? How many personnel have been shifted to SoCal, AZ, and TX that can start the process on these claims? There has to be someone in DHS that can do the math.

Actually, the 9th Circuit acted appropriately when the President unilaterally chose to break the law without asking Congress to modify the law. The law is quite clear and the President is bound by it. I’m sorry if this offends your sensibilities.

SCOTUS should immediately make all 9th circuit orders review by Kavanaugh and Roberts.

So you admit to not understanding the Constitution?

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to allow enforcement of a ban on asylum for any immigrants who illegally cross the U.S.-Mexico border,

as a personal favor for successfully stacking the Court with Deplorables.
