Trump admin unlawfully terminated legal status of migrants who used Biden-era app, judge rules

A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that the Trump administration unlawfully terminated the legal status of thousands of migrants who had been allowed to temporarily live in the U.S. after using an app expanded by the Biden administration to schedule appointments with immigration officials.

U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs in Boston ordered the administration to reverse its move last year to revoke the legal status of migrants who used the CBP One app.

The app was used under former President Joe Biden starting in 2023 to address the crisis at the border by allowing some migrants to make appointments to seek asylum, with many paroled into the country for up to two years, but President Donald Trump moved to shut down the app when he returned to the White House last year.

Burroughs found that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security acted unlawfully in April of last year when it sent mass emails to many of the roughly 900,000 people who entered the country using the app, informing them that it was "time for you to leave the United States."

......A DHS spokesperson said the ruling was an example of "blatant judicial activism" that interfered with Trump's authority to determine who remains in the country.

Dems and outright commies want to import more voters to destroy the USA. Complements their efforts to destroy law enforcement and border security.

These judges, all of them, know they’re going to be overruled, but they don’t care, they’ll have slowed Trump down and get their commie virtue points for it.

So let me get this straight, the Biden regime created a fake app so that illegals could come into this country by the MILLIONS, yet Trump cant deport them

The key word is “temporarily”. Too bad the judge is ignorant,

Yawn. Yet another obvious TDS ruling from a district court judge that will be slapped down by the Circuit Courts or SCOTUS.

These black robes are out of hand.

Maybe Congress should pass a law removing their jurisdiction from Executive Orders? Yes that can be done without a Constitutional Amendment.

As long as Trump refuses to tell the Communist judiciary to pound sand, or even better, starts arresting them as co-conspirators along with Dem officials and politicians, nothing will change.

The judge’s ruling is unlawful. As was Biden’s actions granting “legal” status to illegal aliens.

Of course with the wimps we have on “our side,” that will never happen.

Trespassers. Pretty easy to figure. Is trespassing now okay?

The app just facilitated the illegal entry into the U.S. It did not legalize the illegal aliens.

Only if Trump admin does slow down, on an illegal app which no longer works and cannot be reversed. So big whoop on this stupida@@ judge. There is no app to reverse and the people who used it have largely been id’d and are mostly..... gone back to the shiteholes they came from. Game. Match.

This is to say there is nothing to be done to be “stopped” at this point in time, and even more nothing to “reverse” the prior action. Idiotic and uniformed judge. Can’t follow orders which can’t be followed.
