Judge Says Biden’s Asylum Policy Is Illegal

It’s the only policy Biden has that is somewhat responsible, so, of course a Leftist judge has ruled against it

Judge knocks down Biden’s asylum policy as illegal border crossings dip

illegal alien DemocratA federal judge Tuesday blocked the Biden administration’s new regulation restricting asylum-seekers, one that contributed to a severe drop in crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border over the past few months.

U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar, an Obama appointee in Oakland, Calif., knocked down the restrictions as “arbitrary and capricious,” while staying his ruling for 14 days to give the Biden administration an opportunity to appeal. Tigar also halted a similar measure — the Trump administration’s so-called transit ban — a few years ago, joking during last week’s hearing that he heard “2023 was going to be a big year for sequels.”

The judge’s 35-page ruling marks the latest legal hurdle facing the Biden administration’s immigration policy, which has faced multiple challenges from both ends of the political spectrum. Tigar’s decision jeopardizes the administration’s strictest deterrence measure to date and comes as illegal border crossings have plunged to their lowest level since President Joe Biden’s first full month in office.

Tigar detailed a series of legal faults with the Biden asylum rule, including its basis on outdated or inaccurate assumptions and that it was made available for public comment during an abbreviated 33-day window. The judge raised particular concern about the administration’s effort to require most asylum applicants to present themselves at established ports of entry, rather than claiming asylum after crossing between border posts.

“The Court concludes that the Rule is contrary to law because it presumes ineligible for asylum noncitizens who enter between ports of entry, using a manner of entry that Congress expressly intended should not affect access to asylum,” Tigar wrote.

The judge may be correct, because Congress writes a lot of dumb laws, and also writes a lot of laws without any idea what the effect will be because they do not read it, do not analyze it, and so many are just way too big. The Biden DOJ says they will appeal and defend the asylum rule. Will they defend it hard? Or, was this just Joe throwing something out there to appear to be Doing Something, possibly knowing that a judge would rule against it, considering that the same judge ruled against it under Trump?

Biden’s “asylum ban,” released in May and set to expire in two years, bars some migrants from applying for humanitarian protection if they cross the border illegally or fail to first apply for safe harbor while crossing through another country on the way to the U.S. The rule is not applied to certain migrants, including unaccompanied children, asylum-seekers who enter at a legal port of entry or those fleeing “imminent” harm.

It really should apply to every single “migrant”. And not applying it to those certain “migrants” just emboldens them to show up in mass and send their children on a long, dangerous trek. What’s the chance of Congress passing a simple law stating “all those seeking asylum must apply outside the U.S., not at the border or if already in the U.S.”?

    Stupid judge, substituting his opinion of how he wants the system to work instead of the judgement of elected officials, Biden and Congress.

    And as things like this normally go, the Biden administration won’t appeal it because the Biden administration (whoever is running it) wants this outcome.

    Waiting to hear what this judge has to say.

    In a letter to the judge, Hunter’s lawyers said: “We have no idea how the misunderstanding occurred, but our understanding is there was no misrepresentation.

    Just another reason why women (at least this one) shouldn’t be allowed on the bench.

    The commission criticized Scherer for stepping down from the bench and hugging several prosecutors shortly after she had sentenced Cruz, 24, to life in prison.

    In her defense, Scherer told the state commission, which is tasked with investigating allegations of judicial misconduct, that she had also offered hugs to Cruz’s lawyers.

    My God, woman!

      Correct! Women should be seen, not heard. Women’s Liberation ruined America. Underqualified women took jobs from men, and at lower pay, driving all wages down.

      Home life, which women evolved to support, went downhill. We essentially transferred the rearing of children to the state and other paid overseers. Men would get home to an unkempt home with a TV dinner or delivery pizza and a wife too tired to comfort and care for her man.

      Any man who allows his woman to work outside the home is contributing to the demise of this once strong nation, and is not a real man. Real men support their families.

      Women lawyers, women judges, women Senators, women doctors, women CEOs, women scientists, women reporters, women astronauts, women professors… not one as qualified as even an average man.

      The exception is, of course, single women (aka lesbians) who passably can be elementary school teachers (but watch out for grooming!!), receptionists, waitresses, barmaids and strippers.

      Our Founding Fathers (not Mothers!!) had it right from the starting line. Women are NOT innately suited to contribute outside the home competing against superior men. In 1920, sissy men in gov’t gave women the right to vote, diluting the impact of the men who built and continue to build upon America!!

      “Judge” Scherer is attractive enough to hook a man to support her. To her credit she has resigned the bench.

      Perhaps President Trump can bring balance back to the working classes, discouraging women from leaving the home. He sets a good example. He took an attractive “model” for a wife, and his favored daughter, Ivanka, lives off her daddy’s name and hubby’s largesse, the way God intended.

    We love when you go on your lame brained rants. You manage the sound insane pathetic at the same time. I imagine you think by making all kinds of sarcastic comments that somehow negates the fact that everybody on your team is a fuking thief a liar and a cheat. At least the ones that aren’t busy diddling little boys or cutting the boobs off for little girls.

    To us it just sounds like you’re having one of your “off your Meds” days. We have noticed it’s happening more and more frequently lately period.

    We imagine as the election grows nearer and you realize that you’re gonna have to really cheat your asses off again this time because trump is gonna slam you and your commie friends desperation creeps in and you start doing all kinds of illegal and insane crap. But that’s to be expected from the immoral sort you are.

    There is no more justice in America, and that will only be fixed by a “Storming the Bastille”-level event and subsequent excitement. Heads must literally roll.

    Europe and the West have a death wish. The Left, seeking power and the corporate leaders seeking cheap labor, are well along in their project of destroying us. All aided by touchy feely liberals laden with guilt and blind to the obvious. The voter support for this madness has overwhelmingly comes from women, who are vastly overrepresented in all three groups.

    The destruction of western civilization through deliberately promoted mass immigration of unassimilable, low IQ, violent, backward masses is the left/corporate leader/liberal/women’s greatest crime, among many, against their own culture and people. Possibly the greatest internal crime in the history of all civilizations. High treason driven by the lust for power, wealth and, in the case of the liberals and women, blind pursuit of a misplaced feeling of personal virtue.

    BTW, any of you leftists know what happened to Jeff Epstein’s client list? How about where the other 43,000 hours of J6 tapes are or are they something else we’re not supposed to see?
    We assume there’s no way we’re ever gonna know what’s on hunter biden’s laptop. All leftists do is lie cheat and steal. And then they get insane when we don’t believe them and steal elections. And then they get mad at us when we call them about stealing the elections cauz that’s nuts call us crazy and conspiracy theorists.

    Just so dowd knows that l’eroy is not the only one who notices;

    That’s not what he said. The official White House transcript, like Biden’s claim to have cured cancer, is a lie. For now, we still have the receipts:

    Anyone wonder why trust in American institutions is evaporating? They are infested with progressives is why. All liars all the time.

    • Elwood P. Dowd says:

      Wow. CarolAnn and LeRoy can both go fizzuck yourselves!! https://www.thepiratescove.us/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_yahoo.gif

      But before you go, do you both agree that a woman’s place is in the home and not stealing jobs from men?

      Why is trust in American institutions evaporating? Because “leaders” like Trump are gaslighting weak-minded followers.

  6. CarolAnn says:

    Wow. CarolAnn and LeRoy can both go fizzuck yourselves!!

    there he is Mr. liberal who’s for women’s rights and blacks rights right up until we disagree with them then he starts telling us to go fuck ourselves thank you. Are you a piece of shit.

    But before you go, do you both agree that a woman’s place is in the home and not stealing jobs from men?

    How about if before you go you admit that you like the idea of men taking women’s positions and sporting events and cheating them out of their rightful glory and awards. Cause you like fagots better than women. I mean it figures after all look at you. Yeah big fat turd.

    Why is trust in American institutions evaporating? Because “leaders” like Trump are gaslighting weak-minded followers.

    The left controls all the institutions in America but it’s trump’s fault? Your brain is as fucked up as your body is.

      CarolAnn,

      Thanks again for pointing out the hypocrisy of the Rimjob.
      He just keeps destroying his own “arguments” all by his own little chubby self.
