“The lawsuit claims a few things:

1) That Trump and other officials saying they won’t let the caravan in means they’re going to deny people the right to seek asylum

2) That the admin has a policy of mandatory detention for asylum seekers w/out a chance to challenge designation “

They are nonresident aliens not even present in US jurisdiction, they have no standing to sue.

I saw a nut on CNN yesterday saying it's too early for Trump to send the military to the border because we don't even know if the caravan plans to enter the US. So it's too early to start preparing for that possibility. I guess someone on the left disagrees with waiting until the last minute to prepare.

"how does someone in a caravan in Mexico file a lawsuit in the USA?"

Where do they get the money for an attorney or even a filing fee? Obviously, it is the progressive socialist left here in the country that's doing all this legal work.

The ACLU I would guess. And they’ll judge shop so that the judge “orders” Trump to allow the illegals in.

I still cannot figure out how non-US citizens in another country have “RIGHTS TO SUE THE US PRES”?????? They have no US “Rights” to do anything. They are under the jurisdiction of their home country. Let’s see what the liberal judicial system does with this............

For comparison they should try invading a less stupid & PC country, e.g. Russia, and see the welcoming committee they'd get!

A few hundreds cracked skulls would be the least of their injuries, not to mention being set upon by vicious attack dogs.

To quote that famous line out of the movie Avatar: "We're going to hit them so hard and so devastating, they are going to have a memory of it that will leave a generational scar that they will never be able to recover or want to come near that place again!"

We have enough poor & homeless including our honored Veterans, we should not be allowing these fake invaders posing as migrants.
