The U.S. Supreme Court has blocked the Biden administration from lifting Title 42, which allowed Customs and Border Patrol to expel cross border migrants due to the COVID-19 emergency. [Background of Case Here]
In a 5-4 decision with Justice Gorsuch joining the liberal members, the Supreme Court ruled that Title-42 should remain in effect. It wasn’t really a surprising decision if you think about the Biden administration hypocrisy.
On one hand the Biden administration extended the national COVID-19 emergency through April of 2023.
On the other hand, the same Biden administration was saying there was no COVID-19 emergency as the foundation for their effort to remove Title 42.
The Supreme Court seemed to recognize the inherent contradiction and applied a non-pretending logic. If the national health emergency exists, then Title 42 still applies. It’s really just a simple affirmation of Biden policy. [Ruling Here]
WASHINGTON – In a blow to the Biden administration’s ability to set the nation’s immigration policy, the Supreme Court on Tuesday said the government could not halt the expulsion of migrants for public health reasons under the controversial Title 42 program.
That program, which has been in place since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, must continue while courts assess a lawsuit filed by Republican officials in 19 states who say that unwinding the Title 42 policy would unleash a national “catastrophe.”
The emergency intervention from the high court came days after the Trump-era program was set to expire. The justices announced they will hear arguments about the program next year, but limited their review to whether the conservative states may intervene in the litigation. Oral arguments are expected in February. In the meantime, expulsions will continue.
Associate Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan would have denied the emergency request from the states and allowed the administration to lift the Title 42 policy. Associate Justices Neil Gorsuch and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented from the court’s ruling Tuesday.
While the decision was a legal loss for President Joe Biden, the political implications were less clear: The administration’s effort to lift Title 42 has drawn sharp criticism from Republicans and uncertainty from some Democrats who fear border communities were not prepared for an influx of migrants. The Supreme Court’s decision appeared to defuse that situation for now, even as it left thousands of migrants in limbo. (read more)
“…and uncertainty from some Democrats who fear border communities were not prepared for an influx of migrants.”
😆 Because there hasn’t been an “influx” during the past almost 2 yrs.
I don’t believe they worry one iota about what happens on border communities and laughed derisively when I read that. After all, ‘flyover country’ begins at the third zip code westward here at the Seacoast.

Getting ready to open gate to USA
This is great! We need a breather!
Do liberal SCOTUS justices ever vote with conservative justices the way we can always count on conservative justices supporting the libs?
Nope. There is always at least one conservative who will make friends with leftists. Never seen a leftist do that even once.
I like the last sentence at the end of that 3-page ruling, “We are a court of law, not policymakers of last resort.”
That’s what we want in justices.
The whole thing reads, to me, as saying the State’s have a legitimate case, about the impending problems with the onrush of people into the country upon the abrupt ending of the Title 42 orders. Orders that were created with the declaration of the pandemic emergency by President Trump. That the State’s have been using that Title 42 to keep the FJB administration from opening the flood of border crossings;
and it seems like this 3-page ruling is saying the States had and have other avenues to bring to the courts to enforce their legitimate rights to intervene where the federal government doesn’t enforce immigration laws, even if FJB has been hiding behind the emergency declaration of Title 42. At the least this ruling does give the State’s a foot into the court’s door.
Now it seems the State’s, with this opening, it will end up back in that circuit court to bring their case to stop the imminent influx of hoards of border crossers, and that ruling will probably be appealed by whatever side loses, back into the Supreme Court, all the while those people itching to get into our Country are going to make Mexico a very uncomfortable place to be while the courts and states play their games with the administration.
Wow look at all the emaciated thin refugees in the next to last pic with the Biden tee shirts.
How can these people do that to their children? Teach them how to break laws by example? They lose all sympathy from me by that very action.
They should be drinking Slim Fast.
And with cell phones. Poor things.
Agree with the decision to keep Title 42. However, only a small percentage of illegals are being sent back under Title 42. Per Todd Bensman of the Center for Immigration studies.
We see with our own eyes every day. Common sense tells us our eyes have seen millions come.
Correct. All they did was keep the paperwork and rubber stamps in place.
I read this over at Ace of Spades Headquarters, had heard it before.
If we really want to let people who don’t watch Fox (which covers illegal immigration day and night), we don’t have to rely on the MSM: billboards placed strategically (locales that have a lot of low info voters; don’t watch Fox; places where people will lose jobs to illegals) in places throughout the country would achieve the same thing as a newscast.
We know the RNC, however, wants illegal immigration so we should engage the help of some rich folks who are conservative and hate the assault on the Constitution.

A poll shows that the leftwing media has successfully blocked most of the public from knowing about the scale of Biden’s invited invasion.
Look, you can quote polls or this and that.
Let’s assume everyone upon this world is a TCTH ultra M?GA conservative at this point and vote that way as well.
And yet the USA, indeed the world is run by some twisted illegitimate nexus of Davos and the CCP, all stooges of Satan, one way or the other.
Frankly you need to both fight against the darkness and yet prepare to part of the light.
Split your energy between both.
In response, 81 percent of Republicans and 68 percent of swing-voting independents called for stricter policies.
Are these the same “independent voters” who say this in a poll, but always vote for democrats?
PRESS CONFERENCE WITH WORLD’S GREATEST DELIBERATIVE BODY
Reporter: Mr. Schumer, what should Americans do?
Schumer: “Get abortions. Get vaxxed repeatedly, until the clots do their job. Eat opioids to ease your mind.”
Reporter: But Mr. Schumer, what if we run out of Americans by doing that? Do you expect the migrants to fill in everywhere that used to have Americans?
Schumer, with an ear-to-ear evil grin: “Now, you are catching on …”
Stand with TRUMP !
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
The Democrats finally realized that if you declare a bogus emergency you can pretty much just repeal the Constitution and do whatever the hell you want and act as a dictatorship. It only took less than 250 years for the criminals to realize how to get rid of the Constitution that prevents a dictatorship.
Behold your impervious to covid replacements. Your replacement in every way except paying taxes.
Biden keeps authorizing things which he doesn’t have the power to do.
Imagine what he would do if Trump hadn’t put those conservatives on the Court.
But HOW many have ‘passed’ in the process? Is it really a win?
Did i read 223k came across in Nov. Who knows how many in Dec.
Over 1M since Biden in office.
And WHEN has BHO or Biden EVER abided by a court decision?
Haven’t they both openly said, well we will do it anyway, actually do it and no repercussions?
Another day in America’s destruction! Caught on yet, we’re never going back/returning?
ALL America’s assets being depleted to cradle to grave these illegal immigrants. Everyone knows they have NO support, no assets, no livelihood and We The People subsidize their every waking need, cradle to the grave. Those same “NEEDS” we work for, that are then taxed on and scrape by on is free to them.
A win…suppose so…not so much joyful. It’s just a bump/hump in the road…that will quickly get worn down and a work-around discovered, IF needed at all.
Additionally, every disease America had eradicated is now recurring and active?
Why would that be? Measles and polio just this wk in various cities.
CDC worried. NIH worried? Isn’t THAT their charge? Of course, but they don’t care. We’ve seen how political and how worthless those agencies are. They will lie, cheat and steal…top to bottom when needed.
Title 42 is not in the way of the Regime’s criminal policy regarding open borders. They are handing out 1 year Visas in Mexico so many of those flooding over the border now already have “legal” status. This is all just kabuki theater. Mayorkas just ignores all laws. There are hundreds of flights taking off from the TX border to disperse illegals throughout the country. It is said that October 2022 beat the years of 2017-2020 in illegals entering the country. Todd Bensman and also Ben Berquam are there on the border. Berquam drove between 2 sectors (Yuma & another one I don’t remember) and this was the middle of Dec and saw not one border patrol agent. Not a sign of anything but illegals poring over.
And a BIG, HUGE fence hole CUT OUT in El Paso. Walk right up and walk right in……
THERE is no IMMIGRATION CONTROL in the USA any longer.
You are correct, it is all kabuki theatre. And dems know it, gop know it and Biden/WH knows it….and ALL done with NO outcry or concern? ANYONE in Congress outraged?
Diseased, criminals, terrorists….ALL welcome and ALL being cared for cradle to grave with our taxes…and we have NO representation or say in this take-over of OUR country.
So…if the Supreme Court recognized the “inherent contradiction” that they couldn’t have it both ways, still invoke the so called Covid emergency which has been a frickin ruse the whole time…to give them powers they don’t usually have……and do away with title 42…why is this simple contradiction so hard for Gorsuch to see? Hmmm. Just trying to remain friendly with the left? Did he forget al ready about that home invasion he had experienced? Does he not recognize what’s going on in this country? I’d like to hear his logic since it’s easy for even me to see that you can’t have it both ways, but yet…he was willing to let them have it both ways? I have often wondered with the infiltration we see in every aspect of this government and its judiciary…if it rose to the level of the Supreme Court.
Momentary delay to the inevitable. And wtf is Gorsuch thinking?
Apparently, this only affects one in seven “migrants.”
This horror show would not have happened and would not even spoken about if Trump was in.
This was planned!
Good, but NOT……….reporting says that the Biden Admin is doing two end runs around Title 42:
1) Only returning 30% of the amensty applicants back to Mexico (letting 70% in )……and
2) The Biden DIH has amnesty processing centers set up in Mexico. They are fast tracking the applicants in Mexico, and shipping them into the US, by passing ports of entry !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
