Immigration Judges Can No Longer Use 'Illegal Alien' to Refer to... Illegal Aliens: DOJ Memo
Townhall ^ | 7/28/2021 | Spencer Brown

Posted on 07/28/2021 11:01:34 AM PDT by Right Wing Vegan

A new policy memorandum from the Biden administration took effect Monday which seeks to end the use of what are, in fact, accurate terms for illegal aliens by those handling the adjudication of immigration cases.

The memo first circulated last week within the Department of Justice explains that "illegal alien" and associated legal terms are not to be used in internal or external communications within the subgroup that handles immigration cases and that such apparently intolerable terminology be replaced with more woke social justice-y language.

It's all part of President Biden's larger practice of implementing Orwellian "newspeak" regarding illegal immigrants across the executive branch that his administration confusingly refers to as "welcoming strategies" for the ever-growing number of illegal immigrants who have predictably ignored warnings of "do not come."

But welcoming in this situation could apparently be replaced with speech-policing. It's part of the Biden administration's effort to control not just what immigration officials do but also how they speak and write all stemming from President Biden’s Executive Order 14012 "on Restoring Faith in Our Legal Immigration Systems and Strengthening Integration and Inclusion Efforts for New Americans."

The memo — effective June 26 — from Acting Director of the Executive Office for Immigration Review Jean King "clarifies proper terminology at the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), and directs EOIR staff, including adjudicators, to use language that is '[consistent] with our character as a Nation of opportunity and of welcome.'"

The EOIR's mission, according to their website, is "to adjudicate immigration cases by fairly, expeditiously, and uniformly interpreting and administering the Nation's immigration laws" while it "conducts immigration court proceedings, appellate reviews, and administrative hearings."

King's memo includes a handy chart of the new "current" acceptable terminology which "will be used in EOIR decisions and for both internal and external communications."

How does this affect judges? It looks like an agency guideline.

No problem. Just call them what they are: ‘Foreigners illegally living in the US’. A little longer but perhaps more specific. ‘FILITUS’ for short.

When I was a prosecutor, one public defender objected to calling his clients inmates or defendants. I opted for convicts-to-be.

Keep praying for a turn around. We are either going to see revival or the great tribulation is knocking at the door. This all didn’t happen overnight. If Trump had been declared the winner in November, the evil which has manifested to a high like never seen before would not have been exposed.

Illegal Aliens are Illegal Aliens.

What is wrong with saying that’s? They are Aliens, here illegally.

I have lived and worked and traveled in several othe foreign countries. No country on earth compromises it sovereignty to illegal invasion as is happening in the US.

Would “aliens unlawfully present” also be hurtful?

I don’t think judges take real well to being told what to do, they are usually overbearing, arrogant pricks.
