18 years after the 9-11 attacks...
the Courts appear to finally be wising up to the legal need for America to secure our borders. We have to follow the rules, asylum rules too. May this be the first SCOTUS decision of many that puts aside emotionalism and enforces the laws of our land, for all of us, no matter our religion, ethnicity, creed, or skin color.
Washington (CNN)The Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration's rule that dramatically limits the ability of Central American migrants to claim asylum to go into effect nationwide while the appeals process plays out.Too late in coming, but hopefully this will end the practice of using children as pawns for immediate entry into America. The liberals had an incentive to portray our border patrol workers as cruel, our detention practices as inhumane, and our laws as unenforceable.
Wednesday's order is a major victory for the administration, which argued the rule was necessary to screen out "asylum seekers who declined to request protection at the first opportunity."
"BIG United States Supreme Court WIN for the Border on Asylum!" President Donald Trump said on Twitter.
The rule, from the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security, prohibits migrants who have resided in or traveled through third countries from seeking asylum in the US, therefore barring people traveling through Mexico from being able to claim asylum.
But the chaos they created at our southern borders will end if we stop admitting people to America's interior while we process, and reject, many of the asylum claims. Why did it take American courts so long to reach this decision?
