Divided panel deepens nationwide circuit split and sets up another potential Supreme Court immigration showdown.
The notoriously liberal Ninth Circuit handed the Trump administration a major setback Thursday, ruling 2–1 that illegal aliens apprehended inside the United States generally cannot be subjected to mandatory detention without access to a bond hearing while they fight deportation.
In Rodriguez Vazquez v. Bostock, the divided panel affirmed a lower court ruling in favor of a class of illegal aliens detained at the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington.
The majority, led by Trump-appointed Judge Daniel Bress and joined by Clinton-appointed Judge Margaret McKeown, held that aliens present without admission who are apprehended in the interior fall under 8 U.S.C. § 1226 (which allows for bond hearings) rather than the mandatory detention provisions of § 1225(b)(2)(A).
The court claimed Congress in 1996 never intended the strict no-bond rules to apply to those who successfully snuck past the border and embedded themselves in American communities for years.
Judge Carlos Bea dissented, correctly arguing that the statute treats those who entered without inspection as “applicants for admission” who are “seeking admission,” and therefore subject to mandatory detention.
Bea pointed out the absurdity of Congress requiring detention for those stopped at the border while letting those who evade detection and live here illegally walk free on bond to potentially abscond. Read the Ninth Circuit’s 99-page opinion here.
The Ninth Circuit’s decision binds courts across California, Arizona, Nevada, Washington, and other states in the circuit—precisely the regions that have long served as magnets for illegal immigration and sanctuary policies. It guarantees more habeas petitions, more releases, and more opportunities for illegal aliens to disappear while their cases drag on for years.
The ruling means immigrants who entered the U.S. illegally but are later arrested inside the country generally cannot automatically be held without bond in the Ninth Circuit. pic.twitter.com/AzHpAptHuV

They want America gone. Start over...
I reckon ICE will just have t9o shoot them?
The court has established the basis for a ground war against uncontrolled illegal immigration.When will the shooting begin?
Meanwhile the Shiite Islamofascists are lining up to “immigrate” to America by the millions as they have done in Europe.
ACTION NOW:
<>Call the US Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121,

Ignore the ninth circus and do it anyway.
How many battalions does the Ninth Circus court have?
The only cure for this sh!t is to start literally tarring and feathering these judges, at the minimum.
I would appeal and then ignore the 9th circuit while appealing.
It’s just a delay tactic by the two judges. They know they’ll be overturned.
Invaders are not illegal aliens.
Judges, once again, granting rights willy-nilly to foreign citizens.
Rights are for Americans! We fought and died for them- not just border-jumped.

Idiot judges are OK with>>>>
Around 1.4–1.6 million people with final court-ordered removal (deportation) orders were on ICE’s non-detained docket as of late 2024/early 2025. <<<<<<<< Orders to GTFO but they never did. How many IDs have they stolen to stay here? How many anchor babies dropped?

This is the best official proxy for individuals who have a court-ordered deportation (final order of removal from an immigration judge) but have not left the U.S. They are part of ICE’s “non-detained docket” (NDD) — people under removal orders or in proceedings who are not currently detained.

Wait a minute. Didn’t the 9th court have a do over since Trump’s been around?
How can the 9th Circuit Court make a ruling for the whole nation? I thought the SCOTU ruled that it should only concern their jurisdiction.
Another wrong ruling.
Exactly.
Nationwide?? Apparently they didn’t get the USSC memo that confines these Federal Judges to rule only in their own district.
That's a great idea.
It should be adopted everywhere.
The police will arrest a criminal in the act, take him before a judge, the judge will then release him until trial.
That criminal will of course show up for trial even while knowing that he will go to jail.
Why wouldn't he?
Criminals are honest and honorable people!

The A holes who encourage this have the means and the money to insulate themselves from this ... the taxpayer cannot and has to live with waves of illegals and cannot afford to support them 😡
This is exactly what you see in Europe today; some judge determined that if illegals come in by sea you can’t turn them away whereas you can if they come in by land and are caught trying to climb a border fence. What is the result? 50,000 invaders from parts of Africa swam into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta on the same day; the total population of Ceuta is 80,000 so you now have 50,000, almost all young men, who will overwhelm the lives of the Spanish citizens who are resident in Ceuta and they cannot be deported without some prior hearing. Don’t think that the communists/Democrats won’t try the same thing here - they already have.
