The immigration courts are supposed to give people who are seeking to remain in the United States or have violated the immigration law a fair review of any claims they have made. The Biden administration is trying to turn the immigration court into, essentially, a free candy store, so that anyone who appears in front of the immigration court winds up getting some kind of benefit or being allowed to stay in the United States. And that’s not what the courts were designed to do.
The Biden administration is in the process of ordering ICE to dismiss all of the cases that are currently before it. So they seem to be taking a creative approach to reducing the backlog by simply not pursuing the cases, and releasing these people into the interior of the United States. They also seem to be in a strange position of dismissing immigration judges who are appointed under President Trump and then trying to replace them with people who meet their own ideological framework. So none of this is a recipe for trying to deal with the issue and reduce the backlog in any kind of a meaningful way. And it leaves me wondering who is looking out for the interests of the American people in this whole transaction?
Of course he did. Those pesky immigration laws only get in the way
I didn’t think Presidents were allowed to fire people like this.
Oh wait, only Democrats can fire anyone they want. And in some cases, fire them en masse like Soetero did to the Bush US Attorney’s. My bad.
Hmmm... this has come up in the past I think. Someone talk about this before. Lemme look...
Ah - here it is:
“...He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries...”
- Declaration of Independence 7/4/1776
They will all be past the 2 year period when he is removed from office too.
Weak, stupid whining, as usual.
Bill Clinton fired all US Attorneys on his first day in office.
Elections have consequences, except, apparently, when Republicans win.
You would think the Republican party would make a big deal out of the rats’ official policy of dissolving our borders, given how obviously unpopular it is.
But they strangely quiet.
Trump should have fired every Obama holdover as soon as he took office.
As soon as the Republicans take over Congress they need to pass a law that would prohibit presidents from firing judges appointed by a previous administration.
Yeah... They're so mad they could CRUSH A GRAPE.!! (spit)
There needs to be a Congressional investigation into these firings like the ones they had every time President Trump fired Bonzo hired scumbags. Who’s our Adam Schitt or do we not have one?
I thought it was kinda hard to fire a judge. Not if you’re the “king” I suppose.
Yeah...... that’s the ticket.... a strongly worded letter always gets the job done to the satisfaction of all.
Biden is a weasel. Everybody can see that in this. Yet some hardened democrats will still back him.
