US will resume policy for asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico
Border Report ^ | 2 Dec 2021 | ELLIOT SPAGAT, Associated Press

Posted on 12/02/2021 9:35:24 AM PST by BeauBo

Migrants seeking to enter the United States will again have to stay in Mexico as they await immigration hearings, as the Biden administration reluctantly announced plans Thursday to comply with a court order and accept conditions set out by Mexico for resuming the Trump-era policy.

Mexico’s foreign relations secretary said Mexico will allow returns, beginning next week, in light of U.S. concessions “for humanitarian reasons and for temporary stays.”

Revival of the “Remain in Mexico” policy comes under a court order even as the Biden administration maneuvers to end it in a way that survives legal scrutiny. President Joe Biden scrapped the policy, but a lawsuit by Texas and Missouri has forced him to put it back into effect, subject to Mexico’s acceptance.

About 70,000 asylum-seekers have been subject to the policy, which President Donald Trump introduced in January 2019 and which Biden suspended on his first day in office...

Migrants are expected to be returned starting Monday at one border city and soon after in three others, U.S. officials said. They are San Diego and Texas crossings in El Paso, Laredo and Brownsville...

They added lots of little exemptions to the implementation policy (e.g. "fear"), and dedicated 22 full time immigration judges to hear the cases and shuttle those folks back into the USA for good within six months - but even so, this is a significant development.

Hopefully, it is another sign of the political momentum shifting against the radical policy surge that the current Administration attempted.

Let's Go Brandon!

‘Trump Era.’ LOL! Four GLORIOUS years. MAGA!

Let’s Go, Brandon!

Man, if anyone can find a way to screw things up, it’s Brandon & his handlers.

Talk about back-pedaling! What a bunch of maroons! If *I* were elected President after someone had things ticking along like a fine Swiss Watch, I’d leave things ALONE and take the CREDIT for it, later.

Ain’t Rocket Science, and sure would give ‘We The People’ a much needed break from having Socialism crammed down our throats 24/7!

Yeah, I know. Socialists don’t think like you and me...

22 full time immigration judges

Who picks those judges? Will they turn out to be the ones who majored in some kind of "ethnic studies?"

“Who picks those judges?”

They are Administrative Law Judges, so they are managed by the Department or Agency they belong to (somewhere within the Department of Homeland Security, maybe ICE), like civil servants (not the Department of Justice or Judicial Branch).

They are doing this so they can blame Trump for why there is no financial reparations to people Obama put in cages.

I bet they won’t be tested for COVID or VACCINATED while they wait in their cages in Mexico.

The agreement with Mexico requires that everyone we send to wait there, must be vaccinated..

So at least those will be vaccinated, when the Brandon Administration gets the paperwork sorted, to let them in for good.

The U.S. will try to complete cases within 180 days, a
response to Mexico’s concerns that they will languish. The
Justice Department is assigning 22 immigration judges to work
on these cases exclusively.

U.S. authorities will ask migrants if they fear being returned
to Mexico instead of relying on them to raise concerns
unprompted. If the migrants express fear, they will be
screened and have 24 hours to find an attorney or
representative.


Yes, coming from a Justice Department appointment, it's very
clear that they will fit in with the plans of whoever is
the Puppeteer President of the United States. (PPOTUS)

There's another issue. They don't plan on getting this fully
addressed for six months.

They may be able to process all of those people and bus them
to our interior by then. Newcomers may have to go back. Not
taking bets on that.

Then there's that sappy question. Do you fear going back into
Mexico?
Let me guess which answer covers the opinion of 99%
of their respondents. Then they stay and are stuck in the system
indefinitely.

The media plays this off as the pPOTUS losing on this one.

I don't share that view fully. We'll see. Well,...
in truth, WE probably won't.

I heard this on a radio news report yesterday.

Trump’s good and rational and beneficial policy.

Reinstated.

Thoughtful post. We can hope that the Biden gang will heed the bad polls they are getting on immigration, but they are capable of outrageous sins without any hint if conscience.
