The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has made a massive ruling in favor of President Trump and the ICE removal process [pdf Ruling Here]. In short, throughout the nation 360 immigration judges had previously ruled that illegal aliens (applicants for admission) should be granted bond and released during the removal proceedings.
The Fifth CCA has now ruled the aliens can be detained as they go through the removal process. This means ICE captures the illegal, holds them in detention and then rapidly deports them. The ruling, which will likely be appealed to the supreme court, fast-tracks the removal.
(VIA POLITICO) – […] At the heart of the issue is a 30-year-old immigration statute that requires the detention — without bond — of all “applicants for admission” to the United States while they are “seeking admission” to the country. For decades, administrations of both parties applied this to people who had newly arrived in the country, perhaps by crossing the southern border.
Those residing in the country’s interior, often for years, were categorized under a different statute that allowed them to seek a bond hearing before an immigration judge before ICE could lock them up.
But in July, ICE Director Todd Lyons adopted a new interpretation of the law, declaring that anyone targeted for deportation by ICE would be treated as an “applicant for admission,” subjecting them to mandatory detention. That decision was backed up in October by the Board of Immigration Appeals, a panel of immigration judges who set national policy for executive branch-run immigration courts that handle deportation proceedings.

This issue was a big deal during the 2012 “Unauthorized Alien Children” influx, when President Obama and DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson began releasing all the captured illegal aliens with a bond hearing. Thousands of temporary judges were assigned and NGO’s provided tens of thousands of lawyers for everyone so the illegal entrants could quickly exit ICE custody.
Later, as an expanded part of the Obama and Biden directive, the border patrol just started issuing citations on the spot for court appearances and letting the illegal aliens go into the country. Now, all illegal aliens will be subject to continued detention as soon as they are captured, pending removal.
I doubt the Supreme Court will give this priority so they should get as many deported before the hearing begins and have more evidence of the reduction of crime in the US to support their case.
Maybe now, on election night, we’ll see Democrat vote numbers decrease in real time. Oh that (D) might come to mean DEPORTED.
This is good. That means the secret word of the day at the “Libtard Playhouse” will still be “ICE”. Every time they hear the word “ICE” they will scream real loud and go bat shirt crazy.
Arrest Mayorkas, trail
In Cuba, Guantanamo, military style. After conviction, toss him over the fence. There is a template for “just following orders… Nuremberg.
trial* cold fingers today.
Exactly. If Trump really intends to do what we the people want, this is it.
That’s what I voted for
Shutting down remittances would fast track removals as well. But that would lead to a collapse in the labor pool and increase in wages for US workers.
Oh, we can’t have that! <sarc>
Any bureaucrats who consciously serve illegals ought to be fired immediately.
Will save US A taxpayers BBBillions of dollas.
Ending all cash, food, medical and housing assistance paid by the American tax payers would also help. Removing kids from our public schools that cannot speak English or at a minimum make their parents provide the translations for their kids. Throw the book at big business hiring illegals, like DR Horton and many others.
Most effective rapid removal with zip violence.
Has to happen!
Sanity, where hath thy been???
“In short, throughout the nation 360 immigration judges had previously ruled that illegal aliens (applicants for admission) should be granted bond and released during the removal proceedings.”
At last it appears we’ve come full circle.
I had to come back and read this post again, lest I had only dreamed it.
This is a good day. I can almost see my 14th Amendment rights reappearing on the horizon.
On the whole, we get a lot more good news with this administration than we ever have before!
AND,…. Federal Judges have NO jurisdiction on Fed Immigration Law matters,…. None, only the Immigration Civil Court Judges do.
Tell these Unconstitutional Fed Judges and their Dim/MSM public street barkers to pound sand and shut up,…. or face charges, censor and/or impeachment for attempting to interfere and obstruct the enforcement of Fed Immigration Laws.
“No Mas”. I can work with that!
Bartenders can no longer ask:
“Would you like ICE with that?”
ICE should change its logo to NICE?

Never forget what they did to the J6ers.
Buh-bye, don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya.
Maybe more will now self deport. Take the $ and run.
Bad asses should self deport. Save us all the trouble and money.
If you do, you pay no extra penalty. Just leave.
If you don’t, it need gets nasty.
Deport them all, including some of my relatives.
