Judge bars Trump administration from denying asylum to migrants who enter illegally

[Bourbon]

A federal judge barred the Trump administration on Monday from refusing asylum to immigrants who cross the southern border illegally.
U.S. District Judge Jon S. Tigar issued a temporary restraining order after hearing arguments in San Francisco. The request was made by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Center for Constitutional Rights, which quickly sued after President Donald Trump issued the ban this month in response to the caravans of migrants that have started to arrive at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Trump issued a proclamation on Nov. 9 that said anyone who crossed the southern border would be ineligible for asylum. The regulations, which will remain in place for three months absent a court order, could potentially make it harder for thousands of people who enter the U.S. to avoid deportation.

"Individuals are entitled to asylum if they cross between ports of entry," said Baher Azmy, a lawyer for the Center for Constitutional Rights. "It couldn't be clearer."

Do you think Trump ever consults with his staff before making pronouncements like this?

Once again we see federal judges just making stuff up. According to this judge all any illegal has to do is say "i want asylum" and we have to let him stay.!!!

What law is that?

The 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act which states that any foreigner who arrives in the US, whether or not at a designated port of arrival, may apply for asylum

[anatta]

The Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security argued that the President has the right to suspend entry by individuals into the United States if he determines it to be in the national interest.
"As the Supreme Court affirmed this summer, Congress has given the President broad authority to limit or even stop the entry of aliens into this country.
Further, asylum is a discretionary benefit given by the Executive Branch only when legal conditions are met and a favorable exercise of discretion is warranted," Waldman and Stafford said in the joint statement from the departments. "It is lawful and appropriate that this discretionary benefit not be given to those who violate a lawful and tailored presidential proclamation aimed at controlling immigration in the national interest.

What law is that?

the one HIS JUDGE told his Bitch Ass to Follow.

The argument of "asylum is a discretionary benefit given by the Executive Branch only when legal conditions are met and a favorable exercise of discretion" is merely partisan horse shit issued by those who intend to not abide by The 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act.

Anatta and Shootspeeders are wrong. Nothing new.
