Judge backs Trump admin’s deportation push for 8 illegal migrants after another judge blocks it
Eight migrants were denied a request by a Massachusetts federal judge on Friday to have their deportation to South Sudan halted.
Justice Department lawyers said the men were scheduled to be flown to South Sudan on Friday at 7:00 pm ET after two courts considered their emergency request on July 4, a day when courts would otherwise be closed, Reuters reported.
The migrants, who are from Cuba, Laos, Mexico, Burma, Sudan and Vietnam, filed new claims on Thursday after the U.S. Supreme Court clarified that Boston federal Judge Brian Murphy couldn’t require the Department of Homeland Security to hold them.
Also on Friday, federal Judge Randolph Moss in Washington paused the Trump administration’s efforts to deport the eight migrants to South Sudan, the latest case testing the legality of the Trump administration’s push to ship illegal immigrants to third countries.
Moss had briefly halted the deportation after lawyers for the migrants filed the new claims in his court and sent the case to Boston, where Murphy denied the claim.
The eight men argued their deportations to South Sudan would violate the Constitution, which prohibits “cruel and unusual” punishment, Reuters reported. They have been convicted of various crimes, with four of them convicted of murder, the Department of Homeland Security has said.
I’m actually surprised that Mass. judge allowed them to be deported (Brian Murphy, the federal judge in Boston whose rulings led to the initial halt of the administration’s effort to begin deportations to the eastern African country), but, look at Moss: SCOTUS said the Trump admin could send him, and this pipsqueak judge thinks he can overrule the supreme court of the land. Murphy got the idea, plus kicking it from D.C. to Boston on July 4th was a shady attempt to gum up the works, something our federal judges should be above.
Of course, these illegals could avoid going to the shithole of South Sudan if they chose a place to go to and left. It’s really that easy.
It is at least arguable that deportation to any African country, or any country outside of democratic Europe, would be “cruel and unusual punishment,” because they are, as President Trump accurately characterized them, “[insert slang term for feces here]hole countries.” Anyplace outside of Western civilization is a step down.
But that’s OK by me! They aren’t Americans, so we don’t need them. That they are all convicted criminals means we really don’t want them, so naturally the left will argue that they should be kept here.
You have to have a weird sense of superiority and an unnatural association with what words mean to call someone else’s home cruel or unusual. People actually live there year round. Many will lead fully productive lives there and die peacefully in their beds surrounded by their grandchildren.
If anything, it is cruel and unusual for us to release a murderer into a foreign land. That criminal should be put to death as unfit to live anywhere.
Violent males, whether immigrant or citizen, if convicted in the US, should be imprisoned here.
Granted, America would have been improved if the violent felon, Donald Trump, had been deported to his homeland of Scotland, but instead his cult made him King.
We’ll outlive his vile reign.
