No court can ever force the president to allow any alien to enter the country. No such lawsuit could ever have legitimate standing, and no such decision could have any constitutional moorings. If we don’t understand that, we are no longer a sovereign Republic.
Monday night, Jon Tigar, an Obama-appointed judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, a forum chosen by the ACLU, penned what is essentially an op-ed expressing his desire that Trump’s order on asylum be temporarily enjoined. His desire is just as binding as my desire to place an injunction on all liberals from running for office. He has no jurisdiction over immigration, has no jurisdiction over national security, has no jurisdiction over the border, violated endless settled law, violated Article II powers, violated Article I delegated authority, and broke every sane ruling on Article III standing that differentiates a court from a legislature.
This is not a legitimate court ruling or even court case
President Trump issued a commonsense and quite modest order to direct all asylum claims to the points of entry rather than empowering the cartels to smuggle them in between the points of entry. Given that none of these people are legitimate asylees, he should have suspended all asylum claims at the border and required them to instead make claims in U.S. consulates in Mexico, the first safe third-party country, as designated by the U.N. Nonetheless, even this order was out of bounds, according to Tigar, who believes that asylum statute requires the president to afford everyone in the world, evidently even a belligerent mass migration, a chance to file an application.

Ignore the judge and challenge him to enforce his ruling!
Except that Congress not the President controls immigration law.
Yes lets become a nation where the President can do whatever he wants laws be damned!!
Jon Tigar needs to be removed from office...
on immigration he absolutely can! that’s constititutional!
Who needs a president when you have tyrants in black robes?
Eliminate his court entirely and impeach him.
Um no. Immigration is under the control of Congress. Read the Constitution.
Good thing that’s not what this judge did.
So where was Trump not following the law?
It’s not without precedent.
And, The President clearly has the authority to controll our borders. Article IV Sec. 4. USC.
In reality we are in a nation where judges are placing personal opinion and preventing those from enforcing proper laws.
The law written by Congress is pretty damn clear stating as it does:
Any alien who is physically present in the United States or who arrives in the United States (whether or not at a designated port of arrival and including an alien who is brought to the United States after having been interdicted in international or United States waters), irrespective of such alien’s status, may apply for asylum in accordance with [the procedures set forth elsewhere].” 28 U.S.C. § 1158(a) (emphasis added)
The president is the absolute authority on immigration. It is the presidential perogative. He could ban four legged midgets from guam and it would be legal. He is the ultimate authority on immirgation!
And challenge SanFranNan and her minions to impeach.
Umm no.
“Um no. Immigration is under the control of Congress. Read the Constitution.”
But The President can close the border any time he chooses.
Again no he does not. Read the Constitution before posting that idiocy
