The Gov is using tricks to send them back and those tricks are losing in court.
It's not that the judges are bad. It's that it takes about 1-2 years to feasibly save up enough to pay a lawyer to have a chance at winning Asylum.

They could still do that. After 5 months from filing they can get a C18S EAD and work.
Now what happens if, as Biden planned, their hearing was 6 months after filing?

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Time to bring up that the majority of drugs brought into the country as of 2020 were brought in by Americans. Those stats are somewhere. I remember hearing them over and over. Can you find it in MSMBC records which is probably where I heard it. (Chicago, ICE sirens 24/7)

@morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Is anyone surprised by the Russian connection? Believing as I do in the Steele dossier, and trusting Tusk, it’s all beginning to make sense. Thank you, Ed Luce.

The picture of President Biden is an autopen. Under President Obama’s is the 🐷’s racist bigotry slandering a wonderful leader.
But this….did anyone ever have to wonder if he’s a Russian asset? He LOVES Putin, and is apparently proud to be seen with him. Sickening.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

First, it destroyed their bodies, then it assassinated their characters.
