A federal judge in New York ruled Tuesday that the government must fully restart the Obama-era DACA deportation amnesty and accept brand new applicants as well as renewals, throwing a potential wrench in the ongoing debate over the fate of Dreamers on Capitol Hill.
Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis said the administration does have the power to revoke DACA, but it must give a sound reason for doing so and the Homeland Security Departments September 2017 rationale fell far short of what is required in that regard.
He becomes the second judge to rule President Trumps aides bungled the phaseout but his decision is the most wide-ranging, ordering the government to not only allow those already in the program to renew their applications but also ordering the government to accept new applications.

It’s patently insane for a judge to rule that an executive action that was unlawful to begin with be be continued against the will of the executive.
Let the partisan moron judge enforce his order.
Ignore it. It is an UNCONSTITUTIONAL DECISION THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED NULL AND VOID.
These Democrat-appointed judges are terrible. The Senate needs to work around the clock to confirm Trump's judicial nominees, and help clean some of this rot.
Greece may be too pleasant a place for this guy. I'd suggest some MS13 infested barrio in El Salvador. Then he can experience first hand what he wants to inflict on America.
This is beyond “legislating from the bench.” On this issue he is essentially appointing himself the Acting President. DACA was purely a policy born out of an Executive Order - there is no law mandating it to exist. Therefore, the President can reverse it for no reason whatsoever - he doesn’t need to explain to a judge why he is doing so. So this judge is literally ordering an Executive Order be reinstated - literally claiming the powers of the Presidency as his own.
Definitely
lET THAT COMMUNIST sob GET his MARINES TO ENFORCE IT. IGNORE THAT JACK ASS!!
yuck yuck, And they say folks from Arkansas are stoopid.
The supremes will throw this out if it goes that far.
My question is,
When jurists, {judges} make stpoopid rulings like this obvious political decision was, why are there NO reprocussions?
Throw this worthless lackey off his throne.
The ‘sound reason’ is that DACA is illegal - unconstitutional. This judge is ordering the President TO BREAK THE LAW!
PDJT should automatically declare this decision stayed until a full hearing of the SCOTUS.
They’re baiting him to start defying the court system, all of them, democrats, some republicans and some Federally appointed judges.
There is zero basis in reality for this decision.
Man,would I love to hear the President say just that.These scum judges need to reigned in but good.
I've had my tagline since 2006. (See tagline.)
This judge should be impeached but evidently federal judges have immunity from acts of malpheasance
"The Senate, however, needs a two-thirds majority to convict. Very few federal officials have ever been impeached, and even fewer have been convicted and removed from office. ... The impeachment of federal judges, in fact, is often an even more murky process than the impeachment of other officials."
we arent even allowed to vote in oregon , its a vote by mail state, so you just mail it in and trust them
This is a federal judge claiming o be some sort of Supreme Legislator. There is nothing about an illegally issued Executive Order that he can order into Law.
So the cases I have read about involved 2 and even 3rd degree. Must of the time the person on the receiving end lost hair. To say it was a life changing event is an understatement. The accounts I have read I don’t think I would wish on anyone. During the revolution and pre- events riding one on a rail was the prevailing technique.
“ordering the government to accept new applications”
Exactly. Who the heck does this guy think he is? One Unelected judicial official does not get to decide the nation’s immigration policy. Whatever happened to the separation of powers, certain rights of the executive branch? Did they simply disappear into thin air when D. Trump got sworn in?
