The Supreme Court ruled Thursday for the Trump administration in a key immigration case, determining that a federal law limiting an asylum applicant’s ability to appeal a determination that he lacked a credible fear of persecution from his home country does not violate the Constitution.
The ruling means the administration can deport some people seeking asylum without allowing them to make their case to a federal judge. The 7-2 ruling applies to those who fail their initial asylum screenings, making them eligible for quick deportation.
In a decision in the case of Dept. of Homeland Security v. Thuraissigiam, the court ruled that the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA) – which prevents judicial review of the credible fear determination – does not violate the Constitution’s Suspension Clause, which protects habeas corpus privileges that allow courts to determine if a person should be released due to unlawful detention.

Another idiotic Ninth Circus decision bites the dust!
Justices Stephen Breyer and Ruth Bader Ginsburg agreed with the majority’s ruling, but in a concurring opinion authored by Breyer, they made clear they believe the ruling only applies in this particular case.
“I agree that enforcing those limits in this particular case does not violate the Suspension Clause’s constitutional command,” Breyer wrote. “But we need not, and should not, go further.”
7-2? So at least two Rat Party operatives voted correctly...responsibly. Interesting!
Wow, to lib judges voted for this?
I am surprised it was not nine to nothing, well actually not that surprised...
because it essentially Grant constitutional rights to non-citizens. Again.
“I agree that enforcing those limits in this particular case does not violate the Suspension Clause’s constitutional command,” Breyer wrote. “But we need not, and should not, go further.”
Amazing stupidity. You just set precedence Steve. Too bad.
The supreme Court is trash. Every year they leave their homework to the last minute on even the simplest of cases. Institution is completely broken.
Cinsberg must be really going senile

I think it’s a lot worse than that. Every June we sit around waiting for the decrees of the philosopher kings on the issues of the day. It’s a disgusting affront to the republic
...determining that a federal law limiting an asylum applicant’s ability to appeal a determination that he lacked a credible fear of persecution from his home country does not violate the Constitution.
The power of the Executive to control immigration is clear in the Constitution and the law. Yet, the Left continues to use corrupt judges to attempt to endorse their illegal actions. They lost this time, but they will try it again.
You can thank the dolt Gerry Ford and his cousin GHW Bush for the two dissenters, Kagan and Sotomayor. They were appointed to replace John Paul Stevens and David Souter, who waited until Obama got in office to retire so he could select their replacements on the Supreme Court. But we had assurances from both Ford and Bush that their picks were “very conservative” and they dissed anyone who questioned this. They turned out to be doctrinaire, far left liberals, just like their replacements. Stupid is as stupid did.
If you’re keeping score at home, here are the results by appointee:
GHWB 1 for 1
Clinton 0 for 2
GWB 2 for 2
Obama 2 for 2
Trump 2 for 2
Oops
GHWB 1 for 1
Clinton 2 for 2
GWB 2 for 2
Obama 0 for 2
Trump 2 for 2
“Justices Stephen Breyer and Ruth Bader Ginsburg agreed with the majority’s ruling, but in a concurring opinion authored by Breyer, they made clear they believe the ruling only applies in this particular case.”
So every individual deportation case has to be reviewed by the Supreme Court?
This should have been a 9-0 decision. The powers of the Executive WRT immigrants is clear under federal law - pretty much anything goes in terms of admitting (or not) ANY person for ANY reason. Jimmy Carter even used that power to deport Iranians, and no one put up a fuss then.
The entire immigration fight is about power. The Dems and other America-haters want as many immigrants here as possible, ASAP, to undermine both our culture and the electoral process. This started in earnest with the 1965 Immigration Act, and it has worked so well for the Dems that they can taste total control (and this is why they went so berzerk after Trump schlonged Hillary).
Next!
It is extraordinary how all of a sudden those two justices are in favor of judicial minimalism - but only in a case where they agree with the constitutional position - all other rulings can be sweeping and far reaching.
