What will the Open Borders advocates do now? Will they start this lawsuit all over, working up to the Supreme Court, thinking the outcome will be different? Will they be willing to wait till the full court proceedings are over?
Supreme Court gives Trump win by allowing ‘remain in Mexico’ policy to continue
The U.S. Supreme Court delivered a win to President Trump on Wednesday by allowing his administration to enforce the “Remain in Mexico” asylum policy as litigation surrounding it continues.
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals had said a week earlier that it would block the policy in Arizona and California, the two border states where its authority extends. The Trump administration then turned to the Supreme Court for relief.
“The application for stay presented to Justice Kagan and by her referred to the Court is granted, and the district court’s April 8, 2019 order granting a preliminary injunction is stayed pending the timely filing and disposition of a petition for a writ of certiorari,” the Supreme Court said in an order, which noted that Justice Sonia Sotomayor opposed the Trump administration’s stay application.
The high court action came a day before the lower court order was to have taken effect. Instead, the “Remain in Mexico” policy will remain in force while a lawsuit challenging it plays out in the courts.
The Justice Department responded Wednesday by saying the high court’s order restores “the government’s ability to manage the Southwest border and to work cooperatively with the Mexican government to address illegal immigration.”
If people are serious about wanting asylum, they should be applying at embassies and designated areas outside of the U.S., rather than just showing up and demanding entrance. And attempting to illegally cross the border. Too often, these people who claim to want asylum are released in the U.S. interior while waiting for a court date, and never show up. And then they start demanding citizenship and money and education and housing and healthcare and etc, and the Open Borders advocates support them.
And, a very small portion of those applying fit the designation for asylum. Once they are in the U.S., though, it is hard to get rid of them, thanks in part to Open Borders advocates, who file suit after suit to keep those people here.
If you want a return to Open Borders, vote Biden. If you want to protect the sovereignty of the U.S., vote Trump.
