It would be good if McConnell would go nuclear and do 51 margin vote. I know— still might need a dem or two. RINOs so wobble and seem to enjoy doing so.
Supreme court rejects Trump plea to enforce asylum ban at US-Mexico border
Justices denied on a 5-4 vote the administration’s request to put on hold a federal judge’s order at least temporarily
The supreme court on Friday dealt a blow to Donald Trump by refusing to allow his administration to implement new rules prohibiting asylum for people who cross the US border illegally, a key component of his policies aimed making it harder for immigrants to enter and stay in the United States.
The justices on a 5-4 vote denied the administration’s request to put on hold a California-based federal judge’s order at least temporarily preventing it from carrying out the policy intended make anyone crossing the US-Mexican border outside of an official port of entry ineligible for asylum.
Conservative chief justice John Roberts joined the court’s four liberals in denying the administration’s request.
