Immigration judges around the country are denying the Department of Homeland Security’s attempts to deport illegal immigrants in record numbers, according to a new report.
Over the last 10 months, immigration judges opted against the department’s efforts to remove some 96,223 illegal immigrants, including criminals, according to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a Syracuse University-based nonprofit.
At this rate, TRAC estimates the number of illegal immigrants allowed to remain in the U.S. despite DHS attempts to remove them will surpass last year’s breaking number of 106,676. With the court’s protection, subjects can often remain indefinitely.
“It’s concerning to me that the immigration courts are becoming such a frequently used back-door route to green cards,” said Jessica Vaughan, director of Policy Studies for the Center for Immigration Studies, a Washington, DC-based research institute, noting these cases will be nearly 10 percent of the green cards approved in 2016.
“Many of them arrived illegally, and are being awarded legal status simply because they managed to stay a long time and have acquired family members here.”
One in four of the illegal immigrants allowed to stay in the country despite DHS efforts to remove them this year is from Mexico, TRAC reported.

These judges need to be impeached, and striped of their pensions.
Nooses. We need a sh!tload of nooses.
I'd just love to hear their excuse as to why they're allowing CRIMINALS remain in the country!
This is cute. So Zero WANTS to deport these folks but those mean judges (appointed by BJ and himself) won’t LET him. Too cute by half. A lot like “It wasn’t ransom.”
“So Zero WANTS to deport these folks”
Huh?
Check it out. At least to me that seemed to be the way this is written. MIT is those nasty judges who are doing it.
In just the excerpt it says “despite DHS efforts”. Bullcrap.
If in fact it can be traced to a decision to these Judges, they should and will be impeached in a Trump administration, and in such as their impeachment stands as nullification of all orders not to deport according to the laws of this country and the Constitution.
I was thinking he was going to have to clean house while listening to his speech last night and it will be far more than those who are immigration judges.
My wife has been down in the dumps over all the negativity being leveled at Trump and any of his supporters but that speech got her back in the groove. That speech will be viewed as a mark in time when history is written.
That would get their attention.
Duplicitous, no?
BS......DHS run by obama’s guy. They don’t want them deported.
And they are called “Judges” Nothing short of amazing.
I agree 100% .. after a few of these self-serving idiots are impeached for not following the Constitution .. maybe .. just maybe .. a few more of them will get the message and stop taking bribes or playing favorites and just do their job.
Plausible deniability for the Obama Regime.
There’s no need for this court
don’t fund it
let the immigration people just do their job
Illegal immigrants should be subject to summary deportation without judicial review. Immigration is a grace, not a right.
Apparently, the judges aren’t quite clear on the meaning of the term “illegal.”
One might have thought such an understanding to be crucial to a “judge” but, then, that was before obama.
I remember during the 1990, after the 1st WTC bombing, an immigration attorney - who shared the office and did the immigration work for the (terrorist) Blind Sheik's attorney - was appointed to an Immigration Judge position in NYC.
That lawyer of the Blind Sheik went to jail for aiding the Sheik in terrorist activities and the lawyer who was made Judge continued her work of destroying the enforcement of immigration laws.
Which lawyer has done more harm to America?
