And therein lies the problem.....interpretation, what is to interpret about a law.

Staying in Mexico proved 95% of those coming were for economic reasons which is not grounds for asylum. They backed up like a bowel movement and went home when they couldnt live in the US for 10 years waiting on a court date they would never show up for.

Have them stay in Mexico, then cut off all visas passports for any mexican govt employee, any UN worker, any NGO, and watch them stop the flow of illegals.

A few countries under Trump bitched when we were shipping their criminals back home and he did this. Boy they shut up in real time when momma couldnt shop in Miami, junior could not go to University, they could not spend our US Aid dollars wining and dining on 5th avenue under the pretenses of actually doing something at the UN, and they could not hide their money in US banks.

The settlement did nothing to change the law. If it was legal before the settlement then it is still legal.

Of course the ACLU will run back to the same judge when the policy is reinstated by a new administration. If the judge issues an order trying to enforce an agreement by a Biden lawyer, it would be immediately challenged as not being based on law.

The problem is asylum, which is mandated by our international agreements. We'd basically have to withdraw from the Geneva Convention to effectively do anything about asylum abuse.


Nah.

Just quit saying everyone who is poor is eligible for asylum. I live in a corrupt shite hole is not a reason to grant asylum.

Quite a bit. This has been the way things have been since we formed society and created laws. It's not new

That's not what they're saying at the border, though.

That's the issue. We have to litigate to show their claims aren't truthful

So what is the threshold? What constitutes the need for asylum?

Our state department knows what’s happening around the globe, so they should be able to determine what countries are eligible for asylum. That doesn’t seem like something that is specific to individuals, but based on the political climate at the original country.

Well, when you're dealing with countries with non-state sectarian issues, it gets real grey.

The Central Americans are using the violence and threats of violence of the criminal organizations as their asylum claim.

The standard is

Social group/political opinion are squishy.

Every human on earth could make that claim. That’s not the point of asylum claims.

(Not arguing with you, btw, this type of shite frustrates me)

That's why we have a system to litigate the claims and we don't just accept them all as being truthful.

Only Mexican residents are eligible for asylum.

The others are not.

The system is broken and overloaded, probably intentionally.

They can be released OTOR with a nebulous court date 5 years into the future.

I’m personally for legal immigration, and quite a lot of it, assuming there are some standards and vetting.

But this is psychotic.

Which obviously isn't happening. So the law is fine, the judges and lawyers are the problem.

The courts could handle these cases if they were funded better.

Liberals are fine with this reality and conservatives don't want to spend money (in this area).

A combination of remain in Mexico and using the billions requested for the border wall to interject into immigration courts would have been the best offense against false asylum claims.

It is happening. The courts can only handle so many cases at any given time. There is a backlog b/c of lack of funding.

I don't think asylum seekers even get lawyers, and judges are deporting these people

Again, I said Remain In Mexico was an important policy.

It's no longer the policy of the US, though.

We just have to withdraw from the Geneva convention.

No need to attack the rule of law.
