U.S. District Judge Drew Tipton, Southern District of Texas, has blocked a Biden executive action which was intended to pause deportations for 100 days. “This preliminary injunction is granted on a nationwide basis and prohibits enforcement and implementation of the [100-day pause] in every place Defendants have jurisdiction to enforce and implement the January 20 Memorandum,” Tipton wrote.
The lawsuit was brought by the state of Texas who argued the Biden executive action to stop deportation was creating an undue financial burden on the state, and the order violated administrative procedures and laws for the role of deportation in enforcement.
TEXAS – […] The order represents a setback to Biden’s immigration agenda, which is largely focused on undoing Trump’s immigration legacy and securing an overhaul to the U.S. immigration system.
Tipton found that Texas had proved the 100-day deportation pause would threaten the state with financial harm — and that the moratorium, as rolled out, violated administrative laws and procedures.
“[T]he core failure of DHS lies not in the brevity of the January 20 Memorandum or the corresponding administrative record, but instead in its omission of a rational explanation grounded in the facts reviewed and the factors considered,” Tipton wrote. “This failure is fatal, as this defect essentially makes DHS’s determination to institute a 100-day pause on deportations an arbitrary and capricious choice.”
The preliminary injunction applies to the entire country, not just Texas. It will remain in place as the case moves forward or until there’s a new order from a higher court. (read more)
Finally some common sense from the judicial branch. Tipton’s ruling does not require deportations to resume at their previous pace. Even without a moratorium, immigration agencies have wide latitude in enforcing removals and processing cases.
“undue financial burden”
Wouldn’t this same logic apply to Sanctuary cities?
Excellent! What’s good for the goose is good for the gander! But now Mr. Tipton should lock and load since Anti-fa-la-la and BM–I mean BLM–will be burning and looting his house and neighborhood soon.
If those idiots do show up, here’s hoping they give ’em a big ol’ rousing Texas welcome (nothing says “Don’t come back, losers!” like a gun pointed in your face).
P.S. Can we get judges to block all the other EO’s, too? At least until the Supreme Fools rule that although you can block a R president’s EO’s, you CANNOT under any circumstances do the same to a D(umb) one!
If Judge Tipton’s house is attacked by anti-fa and BLM it will be during the night when it is acceptable and legal to do so based on snarly A/G nominee Garland’s suggestion at his nomination hearing.
Ocelot, please remember Mitch just can’t wait to confirm him.
AlleyCat, they can try it in Texas, but I don’t expect it will go well for the rioters and looters.
Won’t stop the Biden Regime at all. They will snub the judge and stop deportations regardless of the judicial ruling. Besides, Texas has “no standing” in the matter (sarc).
The Biden Regime create their own law. That’s what happens in a totalitarians state.
Up Next: Biden: “The judge issued this order, now lets see him enforce it!!!” (raoflmao)
Deportations will cease, case closed.
The judiciary should just mind its own business and stick to its permitted purview: shaking down traffic law violators. That is its permitted role.
Only citizen violators; illegal aliens get a pass. No use issuing a ticket to someone driving without legal docs, who’s also using a fake name and is guaranteed to not appear in court.
WAIT, aren’t they suppose to be wearing masks ?
Nope, just American CITIZENS
Texas needs to TEXIT. The border will then be their nation state’s to control. The bill is before their legislature to let Texans vote on beginning the process to become their own nation.
I hope they hurry before Biden gives illegals the vote. Dem Texans will never vote to leave the (dis)Union.
Let Federal judges enforce THAT decision when Texas leaves!
I don’t want to live in Biden’s America.
A real judge who didn’t have an auction on his ruling.
Biden and his bosses will disregard the court order. There is no Federal Justice department to enforce it. The states will have to enforce and that will put them in direct conflict with the Feds. The is what leads to civil war. Just like states declare themselves sanctuaries, other states will have to enforce the law. I suppose we will need to have these battles and at this stage the sooner the better.
Appellate Court or Supreme Court will vacate his ruling. We need to move on from the idea that we’re going to get justice through the court system.
You say: “We need to move on from the idea that we’re going to get justice through the court system.”
Let me add: “or by voting (for either a MAGA candidate or a non-MAGA candidate)”
At the National level, I agree. In deep red states, I think we can wreak a lot of havoc, pain, and suffering on the Official Government Party.
Therefore……from where? It’s time to GO!
Precisely. The quaint notion that our nation’s courts will uphold the rule of law is farcical. While I applaud Judge Tipton’s ruling, it’s not going to stop anything.
We’re a banana republic now and the rules are very different from the Constitutional Republic we used to know.
Dems used the courts against PDJT; now the same instruments and justifications are used against Beijing Biden. Poetic justice.
Ken Paxton is AWESOME!!
And Judge Tipton must be as well.
Thank you to both!
Keep fighting!
Does this order apply to the open door policy Demented Joe’s handlers are trying to force on the country or just deportations? If there are other total bs orders regarding catch and release and a host of other ignorance, hopefully injuctions will be coming on those as well
Finally a President Trump appointed Federal Judge makes a common sense ruling. So sick of all the obama Judges screwing the country with their country wide injunctions! Thank you President Trump!
“…an arbitrary and capricious choice.”
However, not without purpose.
The law is what gets enforced. Who is going to stop Biden? The media sure won’t say anything or indeed openly support ignoring the ruling. And of course, the Republicans are actually in favor of open borders.
It’s on! ( between Texas & the Cabal.)
Can we nominate Judge Tipton to the SCOTUS?
We can to our own Supreme Court
Was it Gorsuch or Cavanaugh who said these nationwide injunctions need to stop?
Can’t wait to get thrown under the bus by SCOTUS.
It was Barr.
In this case, the freedom of movement between states makes the nationwide injunction necessary. Texas can deport the people who have final orders of removal. California can open the jail and let people with final orders of removal walk out and get onto a bus to Texas.
The Texas legislature meets for several months once every two years. (Don’t even suggest keeping them around longer than that.) They write 2-year budgets. During much of the Obama administration when Obama occupied the oval office, as opposed to now, the State of Texas budgeted $800 million of our money to deal with border enforcement. That was woefully inadequate but we really could not afford to pour our money into what should have been a federal enforcement tab.
A fund could be set up for the purpose of helping Texas or other states enforce what the feds refuse to do.
There is no law. The law is whatever the people who control the federal agencies (the ones with guns and power to arrest) say it is. The FIB for one is against citizens and the Constitution. Even the 99% “good” ones. They are paid guns for hire, mercenaries. We need a go fund me started maybe we can buy their cooperation.
I prefer the Nuremberg option for the FBI–ALL of them. Just “following orders” didn’t cut it 76 years ago and it should not be accepted today.
Why didn’t Trump put HIM on the Supreme Court???
McConnell.
Texas taking the lead again!
The Bolsheviks remain in charge. Look! A squirrel!…
At this point I’ll take even a small win.
So what, you want nothing to happen, no progress, no wins, no results at all, just revel in our misery?
SD clearly presents this as a hopeful development, not a sit back and wait moment.
And then the Deep State Supreme Court tells Texas (and all Americans) they don’t have standing.
Good news and a win for the USA.
The democrats now control the executive, the legislator and the judicial (as of yesterday’s rulings).
How long before this judge gets ‘Scalia’d’–
Here is how I believe the current evil justice system might be effectively dealt with ;
I think the LORD Himself views ‘exposure’ as the ultimate justice and judgment:
Ecc 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Certainly Sidney Powell is friendly with one of the worlds great Crypto experts; maybe they will get together and consider this approach. It may be possible that this could be a way to end the current practice of hiding and ‘burying evidence’.
Come and take it.
We have to insist to our individual states that they refute Federal overreach. We must become sovereign states in our own right! The Federal government has become the enemy of it’s citizens and it does not serve us. Time to sever ties.
Joyce is ahead of the curve and over the target.
The Federal government is our enemy. Wake up!
I’m moving to Texas anyway. Texas will either secede or it will be the last stand of the Republic. No MAGA Party can save this Union. THEY hate us and WE hate them.Theres no coming togather, theres no moving forward togather. I’m not wasting whatever time I have left on this earth trying to fix a broken,corrupt, Satanic system.
Come on down Mike. Texas can use all the good hands it can get!
I’m headed there too!
Yeah! Not wasting precious time and energy! You and Joyce are on it!
Build something new—-75 mil up for the “can do” challenge.
It beats bitching all day long.
Are there any other states or maybe portions of states (e.g. northern counties of Georgia do what northern counties of CA are trying to do) who would be willing to join Texit?
Texans need to quit selling property to the Deep State supporters.
As for the banana republic now called MARICA by Sidney Powell nothing short of the Military intervention will have any effect at this point.
Perhaps this is what Sidney meant when she said PROOF of election fraud is coming soon, “could it be the military has the proof. They only lack the motivation to reveal it“.
Inflation will quickly destroy the value of the dollar to say nothing of the illegal immigration. Then the military families will start yelling for help. The military will then institute martial law in part to save themselves and in part to help save their extended families. And, of course they will bring out the proof to justify their actions under the constitution.
Found in the bin…. 🙁
The left gets hoisted on their own petard
“…and that the moratorium, as rolled out, violated administrative laws and procedures.”
Yes, The Administrative Procedure Act (APA), which was the law numerous federal judges referred to when issuing injunctions against President Trump
Tipton’s ruling is one small speck of pepper in an ocean of corruption. So the impact from his ruling is equally small. The fundamental problem is the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court, unless living in a pure vacuum could not have missed this deadly fake medical advice broadcast daily about HCQ, if not hourly for well over a year. I can only wonder why, the judicial system did not act to stop this medical propaganda resulting in the deaths of Americans or for that matter the DOJ.
Are we all witness to yet another example of the Supreme Court saying, I saw nothing in terms of fake medical advice, instead of I saw no election fraud evidence? In both cases you need only open your eyes and listen.
Snoopy Says, while I agree with your sentiment, this is not the role of SCOTUS. They don’t make cases, they review cases brought to them and rule on the matter based on the law…or at least that is what their role is supposed to be.
They clearly punted on at least one of the election fraud cases. They apparently see no role for them in election politics and have refused to become involved leaving it up to the states. Common sense says this is not right, but I don’t know constitutional law.
Thirty million illegal aliens are here already.
At least.
Oh you’re wrong /s.
The alleged Official Number – that is constantly quoted, is 11M. And that has been the official number for oh, I don’t know, maybe 30 years?
I would not be surprised to learn that even 30M is too low of an actual number.
Yet another one of my postings went missing. Into the BIN of history or into the great unknown. I’m beginning to think the system is set to remove any reference to M-E-R-I-C-A, used by Sidney.
Biden’s workaround will be to send busses to Countries south of the wall. There will be collecting stations for illegals and they will enter the US legally. No more ICE or stubborn judges and no more coyotes. a Replacement for dominion in the next election and he probably will.
How encouraging. One judge with common sense and guts to take a stand legally against JoeBama. Now only 2000 (?) to go?
Biden Plans To Make You Pay The Health Bills For Illegal Aliens
February 24, 2021
Link to Article
Question – according to this article, the Secretary of HHS has the SOLE POWER to decide to make public benefits available to Illegal Aliens?
This doesn’t seem right to me – although I am not doubting the premise at all – we all know the Ruling Class, particularly this current crop of Ruling Class, want to give away the Store to people who do not belong here.
Many of the bills use that tactic. Obamacare bill did the same. IMO it is more evidence that Congress doesn’t do any work and we are paying them for nothing. They delegate everything. Same with state legislatures.
Hooray for Judge Tipton!
Hooray for TX attorney general Paxton!
Hooray for TX governor Abbott!
“CPAC” another ((nose)) convention. Thanks but no thanks.
ICYMI – FYI – WTF — Trust Politics/Science — ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ —
10%-15% of the US Adult population are Illegal…
Yale, MIT study: According to the report, the number of undocumented immigrants estimates are 22.1 million and could be as high as 29.1 million.
https://thehill.com/latino/407848-yale-mit-study-22-million-not-11-million-undocumented-immigrants-in-us
how come a federal judge in Haiwaii can give a ruling that affects EVERYONE — and immigration is not a particular problem in Hiawaii. But Texas had to argue and prove harm?
SCOTUS will overrule on appeal.
Nayhhh! You give SCROTUM way too much credit. They’ll simply tell this attorney that he has no standing.
Now this is interesting, Biden accused of violating the law?
Obama’s like, “I don’t know Joe, never happened to me.”
Texas needs to finish the wall! People need to just show up and start building it!
