Homeland Security paroled roughly 2,500 migrants into the U.S. from the southern border on Friday, according to a department source.

A day earlier, a judge issued a temporary restraining order against the Border Patrol’s use of parole to catch and release the wave of migrants cresting along the U.S.-Mexico boundary.

Judge T. Kent Wetherell’s order, which the Biden administration is appealing, was in effect Friday. It’s unclear what authority the government used for the new paroles.

Neither Homeland Security nor the Justice Department responded to requests for comment over the weekend. Customs and Border Protection, which oversees the Border Patrol, said it would respond “as soon as possible” but hadn’t done so by Sunday afternoon.

As we all know, if Trump had ignored a Court's order in such a way, the media would have published article after article asking, "Is this a constitutional crisis?". And, the democrats would be yelling, "No one is above the law", as they filed articles of impeachment.

And I think the Border Patrol has given up and just being used as a pass-through agency.

They’re worried about what the corporate donors might do if they actually enforced the law.

This proves that now, we are a nation of men, not of laws. It is despicable.

Seven MILLION illegal aliens arrived on his regime.

7,000,000 illegal alien invaders, in 29 months.

That is more than the entire population of El Salvador, more than the entire population of Costa Rica, more than the entire population of Panama, more than the entire population of Nicaragua. For example. Equals 25% of the population of Venezuela.
