A federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration from denying asylum to migrants who illegally cross into the United States, saying the policy likely violated federal law on asylum eligibility.
The judge pointedly denied the claim that the president, by fiat, could give the manner of entry added legal weight as a determinant of asylum. He reasoned that the

Why should an unaccountable United Nations opinion, created by a bunch of euro-fools have any say or lend any credence to anything happening on American soil?
The United States is not a signatory of their amnesty rules and the US Senate has not ratified such an agreement. So the UN amnesty posture is meaningless.
This one is REALLY out on a legal limb! Quoting the UN? Which has nothing to do with US law? Might not even need to get to the SCOTUS. Any sane appeals court should smack this idiot down.
Read the article- TRO =temporary restraining order... nationally barring enforcement of the policy to be in force until Dec ..... (in article).
got it
thanks
Jail for judges, who rule on subjects without jurisdiction or without US Legislature and USConstitutional law.
In a blow to Trump’s immigration agenda, federal judge blocks asylum ban for migrants
Another jackass pretending to be someone. Must be proud that he can over rule the President of the USA.
Quite possible he belongs in another country.
Well said...pity the recommendations out of the Judicial Committee cannot be implemented right now

House Judiciary Committee Approves Legislation to Improve Efficiency of Ninth Circuit
Washington, D.C. – The House Judiciary Committee today approved by a vote of 16-5 the Court Imbalance Restructure Concerning Updates to Impacted Tribunals (CIRCUIT) Act of 2018, H.R. 6754. This bill, authored by Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet Subcommittee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), modifies the structure of the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
The federal courts of appeal have regularly expanded in number and split in response to new states and territories being added to the Union as well as population growth. There are currently 12 regional circuits in addition to the Federal Circuit. The Ninth Circuit is the largest circuit in caseload, population, and geography.
The CIRCUIT Act would implement the 1998 White Commission’s recommendation to create three regional divisions within the Ninth Circuit in order to improve judicial efficiency. The divisions would include a Northern Division, comprised of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington, a Middle Division comprised of the existing Northern and Eastern Districts of California, Guam, Hawaii, Nevada, and the Northern Marianas, a Southern Division comprised of Arizona and the existing Central and Southern Districts of California, and a Circuit Division which would hear certain cases including where two or more Divisions have reached final decisions of law that conflict.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and Subcommittee Chairman Issa praised today’s approval of the CIRCUIT Act in the statements below.
Chairman Goodlatte: “For the past several decades, the size of the Ninth Circuit has continued to grow far in excess of other circuits. Twenty percent of the U.S. population now resides in this circuit with nine states and two territories, making it twice the size of any other circuit. The geographic breadth and workload of the Ninth Circuit makes it challenging for parties and their counsel to have timely court dates in their region.
“The CIRCUIT Act does not include an outright split of the Ninth Circuit but instead creates regional divisions in an effort to ensure our federal judiciary is functioning in the fairest and most efficient manner for the citizens it serves. I thank Subcommittee Chairman Issa for introducing this legislation and am pleased the Committee has passed it today.”
Subcommittee Chairman Issa: “Currently, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals is the largest of the 13 federal appellate courts and, on average, hears about a quarter of the nation’s cases brought before the appellate courts in a given year. For years, many have called for this court to be divided, but there remains widespread disagreement on how those divisions should be made. The CIRCUIT Act is a step toward making this needed change. By dividing the Ninth Circuit into regional divisions that effectively function as individual appellate courts, we open the door to determining whether a circuit split would be feasible while, at the same time, preserve the current Ninth Circuit as a single appellate court.”
Declare it a foreign invasion and take the judges OUT of the equation.
This has to stop - now! What next? An Obama judge telling the President that he cannot order troops to defend the nation from an armed attack? Oh wait, that’s EXACTLY what this ruling purports to do. The government has proof that the caravan is full of criminals and potential terrorists, and a judge wants to tie the hands of the Commander in Chief. Washington could never have defeated the British under this type of judicial dictatorship. The separation of powers needs to be enforced by unilateral declaration of the President. Going to the USSC is accepting that judges have the right to overrule the CIC on issues of national security. They do not, and should not be asked for permission.
Who elected the judge president?
These judges need to be recalled. They are overstepping their authority.
Instant reply of the last 6 Caves ,
Trump does some legal action that he knows a left wing judge will throw out .
Another 60,000 invaders stroll across the border with Mexico in the mean time.
Trump acts mad and it dragged thru thr courts until June.
Trump vows to stop but does nothing but talk as they flow thru the border . The left wins again .
Brilliant strategy NOT !
Its called the definition of stupid .
Close the border NOW .
Where did you work to get Gop candidates elected again this midterm or just post nonsense here .
Close the border and let Mexico deal with the invasion ..
Trump is doing nothing again and letting the Left wing judges win again .
Just stop Mexico and the invasion stops !
Easy solution. but does Trump really want this solved .
I really think not now .
Its a 2020 election issue he wants to feed .
Typical. While he’s appealing this judicial abuse of power, he should appeal as a point of law whether district court judges can dictate to the entire country. What if a district court in New Jersey rules that he can ban asylum. This could end up as badly as the referendum on slavery in Kansas.
Soros, the media and Democrats are out to destroy this country. The rule of law is lost to political ambition.
The Obama legacy.
America has two years to decide if it will continue to survive as a Free Republic (no pun intended), or descend into an open borders, multi-cultural, socialist abyss. If a Democrat wins the White House in 2020, America as we know it is finished.
After the two years, the decision will be made with guns, death and destruction.
The leftists who control the cities will surely prevail in the short run. They will be destroyed in the long run. They lack firepower and lack logistical control over the supply train on which they depend for life
Ultimately, In American cities it will be like Paris in 1792
