“At issue is a federal law that calls for mandatory detention and possible deportation for “criminal aliens,” including legal immigrants convicted of crimes ranging from violent felonies to simple drug possession. “
This is not even an issue except for those traitors in the ACLU. Im sure not one of the ACLU directors would even house one of the illegals in their own homes.
They aren’t “legal immigrants” just because they’ve been here a long time.
WWJAKD..?
[What Would Justice Anthony Kennedy Do]
Actually only his second day on the Supreme Court bench.
Excellent. Kavanaugh will be an improvement. Change the law seems to be his constitutionalist viewpoint over and over...I like it.
Liberal heads exploding all over the nation.
At issue is a federal law that calls for mandatory detention and possible deportation for “criminal aliens,” including legal immigrants convicted of crimes ranging from violent felonies to simple drug possession. The law says the Homeland Security secretary “shall take into custody any alien” with a criminal record that could lead to deportation “when the alien is released.”
One prediction I made early on if Kavanaugh was confirmed to the court was that we will be seeing less cases from the ACLU.
For years they have used the courts to get things they could not get by the legislature. With a left leaning court they stood a good chance of wining so it was worth the time, effort and money to get a case to the Supreme Court.
It is not longer a sure thing. And they understand that if the Supreme Court rules against them it stands nation wide.
It will be up to conservative organizations to go after “settled law”.
See, see! Drinking them beers again!!
I hope Judge Kavanaugh realizes (if he didn’t already) just how vile and destructive the left is, and that their evil agenda must be defeated in every way possible at every opportunity.
While my feeeeeelings are that it’s harsh to get jacked over a misdemeanor, the law is the law. Who knew going to another country and committing crimes would get you thrown out?
And as to the “decades” part from the example, my parents came here, committed no crimes, and gained citizenship as soon as the minimum five years were up.
on C-Span today a caller to the mornign journal show said he had a real issue with those who call them illegal aliens. To this man everyone coming to the USofA legal or illegal are immigrants, people and to say alien means from space.
The guy is living in hate and ignorance against Trump and many of us becasue the guy doesn’t even bother to read the definition of the word alien.
Multiply that by some thousands and that equals how many ignorant folks in the bleeding heart “help the illegals” group. too lazy to read a definition and maybe learn some thing instea dof just relying on what they are told from dems or some movie/story based characters in their minds.
Newly seated Justice Brett Kavanaugh spoke up Wednesday in defense of the Trump administration’s view that legal immigrants with criminal records can be arrested and held for deportation, even years after they were convicted and completed their sentences. At issue is a federal law that calls for mandatory detention and possible deportation for “criminal aliens,” including legal immigrants convicted of crimes ranging from violent felonies to simple drug possession.

As it should be.
The only reason some of them are still here is that previous Presidents refused to enforce the laws.
I want to deport ILLEGALS because THEY DON’T BELONG HERE - IT’S NOT THEIR COUNTRY.
IF A PERSON BREAKS INTO MY HOME IT DOESN’T OBLIGATE ME TO SUPPORT THEM til I die. These people broke our laws the minute they broke into our country.
The Left does not even bother with trying to get the law changed, as usual it wants judges to tell law enforcement to just not follow the law.
That is what the Left has been doing all through the modern era - making the judiciary an unlected and unchallengable super legislature, remaking law from the bench and ignoring there is no prescribing mandate from the Constitution for doing so; just inventing one from that “living Constitution” that exists no where on paper.
Has anyone checked with this Democrat genius to see if he approves? (If he’s made bail, I mean.....)

Illegally entering the United States should be a felony.
What am I missing here? If a legal immigrant is convicted of a felony, I don’t see what’s at issue. Such individuals deserve the same treatment as native-born citizens who commit a felony. That being the case, there is even less room for debate when it comes to an illegal felon.
Perhaps this gets into statute of limitations, in which case the ruling could not apply uniformly to all cases. Any lawyers, feel free to explain. Thanks
