Supreme Court keeps in place Trump-era immigration policy allowing asylum-seekers to be quickly turned away

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed Title 42 — a Trump-era immigration policy implemented when the pandemic broke out to quickly expel asylum-seekers at the border — to remain in effect for now, putting a judge’s ruling that would have ended it last week on hold.

The court voted 5-4 to grant an emergency request by 19 Republican state attorneys general who sought to intervene in defense of the policy. The decision puts on hold a ruling by Washington-based U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, who said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s implementation of the policy was “arbitrary and capricious.” Sullivan’s ruling was due to go into effect Dec. 21.

Conservative Justice Neil Gorsuch joined the three liberals on the court in voting against the stay request. The brief court order said that while the administration cannot set aside the Title 42 policy, the decision "does not prevent the federal government from taking any action with respect to that policy."

The Supreme Court also agreed to hear oral arguments in February and rule on whether the states can intervene, with a decision due by the end of June.

The court's intervention averts what many had predicted would be an additional surge of people seeking to enter the United States at a time when border crossings are already high. Without the policy in place, people seeking asylum would be able to enter the U.S., where they could be waiting for years for a court date if they pass their initial interview with authorities.

74 of the infected children are not vaccinated against measles - and four are only partially vaccinated.

Gorsuch is so lame.

He could have stopped the steal but he didn’t.

He knew Hugo Chavez was in cahoots with Dominion and he did nothing.

“...turn them over for deportation. Give US citizens $1,000 each for every illegal they can out at their employer.”

Yikes! At first, I agreed. BUT - in Reality, where I live (Miss You, Rush!) the DemoNazis would use this to their advantage against, ‘We The People’ in a heartbeat, if implemented.

I can never get behind the ‘rat on your neighbor’ ploys. Slippery Slope, et al.

Mother Government’s ONE AND ONLY JOB is to keep us safe from ‘enemies; foreign and domestic.’

And She fails us every d@mn day!

1st: Secure The Border

2nd: Look at Immigration Reform

3rd: No Asylum - Stay in your shithole country and fight to the death for the freedom of your country. Like we did against the British.

How can anyone with a brain and a Judeo-Christian ethics think it’s O.K. for this country to be invaded!

No immigration reform needed. Kick them out and keep them out.

My Immigration reform means only considering those peoples that have a proven track record of good assimilation. Send the Statue of Liberty back to Europe...

And No Asylum... Stay in your own country and fight to the death for your country to be free. Just we did against the British.

That is a good point.

The laws are on the books stating that entering the country without permission is illegal.

We are not governed, we are ruled by corrupt fools.

It is known not to involve Gorsuch unless he has had a successful morning bowel movement. Constipation makes Gorsuch cranky and recalcitrant.

Title 42 doesn’t apply only to the Wuhan Flu. Numerous other diseases are also present in the illegal alien influx.

Then-President Donald Trump invoked it when the coronavirus pandemic broke out in March 2020, and it has remained in effect during the Biden administration. More than 2 million people have been expelled from the country as a result.

So even with Title 42, Mayorkas has let in more than he has sent back. The real problems are:
1) SCOTUS has allowed the "sanctuary" loopholes in federal law to stand, despite the fact that it is preposterous to allow the whole world to enter without vetting and remain forever, because our courts will never be able to catch up with such applications
2) The Biden gang either wants us to be overrun with invaders, or they are so clueless they think it is possible to hire enough judges and staff to handle the invasion.

Biden and his goons and thugs WANT A NEW SERVANT CLASS TO KISS THE BUTTS OF WHITE LIBERAL 'ELITES' LIVING IN DC, Hollwood, San Francisco etc... . They want them to vote democrat. And they want them to drive wages down.

The burden of educating them, housing them and assimilating them will be forced on American citizens. White liberal 'elites' hate this country.

Remember Martha's Vineyard?

Those folks want cheap dishwashers for their $400 a plate restaurants. They want migrant children to fill their kiddie whore houses. And they want a criminal justice system overwhelmed so working Americans live in a violent hellhole. Making their privilege look even larger. Third world crap...

. How do we know that's what they want? Because that's what's their choices are creating in our country. Actions speak louder than words.

Bus loads of illegals at the Supreme Court building may make them get to the reality of the issue.
