A massive win for President Trump, DHS, ICE and all Americans who support the detention and deportation of illegal aliens. In a 10-7 full panel decision the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that all illegal aliens can be detained while awaiting deportation and/or while their immigration proceedings are carried out. [SEE RULING HERE]
This is a critical ruling by the entire 5th CCA because it grants DHS/ICE the ability to detain all illegal aliens regardless of their length of time in country or developed connections to the U.S.

WASHINGTON – A divided federal appeals court ruled Friday that thousands of ICE detainees being held in Texas have no rights to seek release on bond — even if they’ve been held for months or years while their immigration proceedings play out.
The full bench of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals concluded 10-7 that Congress had intended to restrict the availability of release for people facing potential deportation, even if they have lived in the U.S. for years without criminal records and had attended their Immigration and Customs Enforcement check-ins.
The decision is the most consequential ruling yet in support of the Trump administration’s unprecedented, year-old policy of mandatory detention for those who entered the country without permission — even if they had developed decades-long roots in the country, with U.S. citizen spouses and children.

This ruling will put additional pressure on illegal aliens to self-deport ahead of capture.
Excellent! It’s good to find some judges who are not bent on destroying America like the #ThuneSchumer Cartel.
It was always ridiculous to legally release into the country those whose crime is entering the country illegally.
Very unusual that judges protect our society by holding bandits…bill
Federal Court Says No ‘Get Out of Jail’ Card for Illegal Aliens

A federal appeals court ruled Friday that illegal immigrants detained inside the United States have no constitutional right to a bond hearing, no matter how long they have lived in the country.
About time, what took as so long for a proper ruling? Illegals never had the same rights as citizens because they are not citizens.
It seems the 5th Circuit Court is suddenly making rulings on those important cases that take forever, or not-at-all, to reach the Supreme Court.
Be sure there are lots of Somalis in that deportation process.
Let’s use any funds recovered from Somali fraud for use in building Somali Detention Senters. We could use a very large one here in the Columbus area.
With Omar (or whatever her real name is), and her extended grifter family at the head of the line.
”We need more Somalis.”
Said no one, from anywhere, since the dawn of time.

Thank God Amy Commie Bryant wasn’t in that mix.
Illuminating. Thank you.
Elections matter. Dann right. We need another 20 years of GOP majority to get this county and its court system back on track. Vote.
All Pres. “Autopen” Appointments should be null and void. While the Senate confirmed, they did so not knowing that the biden was not cognitively capable of making an independent, rationale, selection decision. Thus the Senate was repeatedly misled, and the “deals” struck among the demonrats and rinos were even more “corrupt” and in breach of their Oaths to support the Constitution than normal.
Congress can accomplish this by straightforward manner of “defunding” court, “defrocking” the judge (none of whom have “lifetime tenure”) and dissolving the court (What “Congress may from time to time ordain and establish”, it certainly can “defrock” and “dissolve”. No Impeachment required; no allegation of “bad Behaviour” need be the basis).
Then if Congress in the next “budget cycle” decides to “ordain and establish” select additional courts, it is free to do so observing appropriate “Executive nomination” and “Senate advice and consent” processes.
Wow thanks for posting that obvious judge’s pattern…bill
Amazing that there were 7 justices stupid enough that they ruled to let them go free.
Agree, 10 to 7 that number should be 17 to 0.
— misposted —
Stupidity doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with it.
It’s about ideology. Leftist ideology seeks the destruction of Western Civilization.
Judicial decisions by leftist judges will always side with those who seek our destruction.
Clear evidence of “politicization” and breach of their individual Oaths to support the Constitution; which does not grant any “policy” or “law” making Powers to the Article. III. courts.
I will fix the last sentence. This will encourage illegal aliens to self deport before capture, but after voting!! This is great news and probably going to SCOTUS on appeal. They just need to do their job, which can kinda go either way with the current roster.
Can en banc decision be appealed?
Take the 3K offered and self deport.
Probably only applies in the states in the Fifth Circuit, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. However, the Fifth was the first to take on this issue, and any other circuit, e.g., the Ninth [Circus] would now have to address the Fifth’s arguments.
It was an en banc (all the judges except for the senior status judges), so that carries an extra weight that the three-judge panel would not.
There was a day when all who occupied a bench in the “Judicial” would overwhelmingly and unanimously vote to remove all invaders.
Those 7 against and most ALL do not hold the law or Constitution in a way actual Judges at one time did.
B.A.R. Agent London carpetbagger have saturated the once great system we had.
Democrats: Waaah they are attacking and injuring our Capitol Police. Its insurrection!
Also Democrats: ICE are nazis! Fight! Resist.
Woot! Woot! 🇺🇸💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸.
7 need to be removed.
MAGA
That is really going to hurt the democrat get out the vote system
This is known as a, ‘which way is the wind blowing’ ruling.
Can’t resist, sorry.
…and herein lies the crux of the whole legal argument…
“Wilson also noted that the individuals challenging their detention could end their confinement “at any moment by agreeing to leave the country.”
So, these people are voluntarily detained!
How It Can Be Challenged
• United States Supreme Court: If an en banc decision comes from a federal court of appeals (or the highest court of a state), a losing party can file a petition for a writ of certiorari asking the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case.
• Discretionary Review: The Supreme Court is not required to hear the appeal; it generally only accepts cases that involve major constitutional questions, unresolved conflicts between federal circuits, or issues of exceptional national importance
I have to admit that I do have some sympathy for the children of illegal parents because they had no choice in being illegal, but they are still here illegally.
It’s not the fault of the United States that young illegals are in the situation they’re in and they deserve nothing more than a chance to apply for citizenship legally.
A few may even show themselves worthy of US citizenship but asking is an important step which shows respect for the country and it’s citizens.
Without that show of respect you negate your opportunity for consideration.
Illegals have NO right to be in this country. End of discussion. They did this to themselves. Yet they keep trying to make this our problem ;not theirs fully using their Democrat party enablers.
Can they still collect benefits while in custody?
Can they still send money out of the country while in custody??
The disconnect between the judicial branch of typically activist leftist lords and the rule-of-law within a constitutional framework of restraint is so vast that proper, common sense, properly reasoned rulings (like this) that favor law-abiding citizens and support our suffering American republic are shocking.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHA
Now get rid of every ‘foreign’ UN employee
Yeah… about time.. Happy Dance singing Deport, Deport, Deport as I wiggle around
Good.
