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.
[SOURCE]
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
Keep them detained so they can’t go vote.
The problem of illegals voting is not nearly as big as illegals being registered to vote.
An illegal can be in a jail cell and someone else can still cast a vote in their “name” for their preferred DemonCrat.
They can do it by mail or in person-either way, no ID required by the DemonCrats.
Well, depending on what State you’re in. There is none of this “mail-in” BS in the State of Tennessee. 😂
Or rape and kill our children. Or move into that last available apartment down the street. Or enroll their non-English speaking kid in our already overwhelmed schools. Or use our Hospital Emergency Room as their personal Doctor’s Office without a dime to pay for the services they receive. Or drive 16 wheel trucks on our highways without a clue on how to drive one, resulting in the 100% unneccesary death of American citizens. Or allow them to build hundreds of Mosques across the country without one ounce of anticipation of assimulating into OUR customs, rules, laws and way of life. Want more reasons? I’ve got a few more, if you do.
But, but, but, yeah, yeah, yeah, Get ’em ALL OUT OF HERE NOW!!!!
The Fifth Circuit Court judges were appointed by 12 republican and 5 democrat presidents. Of those, 10 ruled in favor and 7 opposed the ruling.
Federal Court Says No ‘Get Out of Jail’ Card for Illegal Aliens
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/10/ice-says-teams-houston-are-averaging-about-100/
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.
”Illegals never had the same rights as citizens because they are not citizens.”
Exactly. For too long, they’ve had MORE rights, in clown world.
Catch and release for heinous crimes (cuz <<sob!>> ICE bad!), jumping to the front of the line in the ER (cuz “language” barrier), no vax requirements for “undocumented” school kids, no COVID vax mandates, a host of legal aid “programs” the average American could never afford to tap, 5 star hotel stays while they “got settled” (smeared feces on the walls), no license/auto registration/insurance=no problemo!, interpreters in every facet of their lives (school, hospital, court system).
If these judges were held accountable for the crimes their pet illegals commit, if they were the victims, the ONLY victims, of illegal crime, the blind eyes they all possess would suddenly develop perfect sight.
DEPORT, DEPORT, DEPORT. And then, DEPORT some more.
And when THOSE Deportations come to an end – DEPORT SOME MORE!!!
Get ’em ALL OUT OF HERE!! Not just “some.” ALL OF THEM!!!
It’s really not that hard to understand.
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.
No need to build a darn thing. Just detain them in all those empty Learing Centers!
Senter. I get it! HAHAHAHAHA!
Extended families welcome!
Romantic suites for brother/husband sister/wife daddy/goat getaways!
All rooms face mecca, as does our deportation bus depot.
Enjoy your stay, and of course, GOOD RIDDANCE!
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.
Once had an Uber driver pick me up at Columbus airport several years ago. I asked if he was Somalian since half the city is. Turns out he was Nigerian and he went on an anti Somali rant for the entire 30 minute ride home that was very unfiltered and with salty language. So you are not wrong!

Elections matter. Dann right. We need another 20 years of GOP majority to get this county and its court system back on track. Vote.
Not GOP. MAGA or American First.
MORE TRUE !
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.
The whole nullification process starts with Bidung being a fraudulently seated pretender. NOT a PRESIDENT! It’s bigger than just the illegitimate judges. If you’re going to ramble on ramble right! Done rambling. 😎
That is an incredibly stupid comment; Why not say: “Let’s abandon the Constitution, just ‘let might be right'”, and allow this Republic to ‘fragment’ in to a ‘balkanized territory”of warlords. …
Clearly you and you extended family will have no presence in the “future”.
WTF are YOU talking about? Explain, please.
Your point is noted and well made. And if you really think about it, we had the first black “President,” that couldn’t produce an actual birth certificate other than the fake Hawaiian POS wherein the dates and existence of the hospital itself were left in question – yet he was ‘verified’ as a legitimate President; gay one at that!
The Commies have had their hands in the American Pie for quite a long time now. And it continues.
Wow thanks for posting that obvious judge’s pattern…bill
Excellent info….
Bush cabal VS Reagan Trump
Elections matter! These midterm elections matter very much. Get your ballot in and make sure your friends and family cast their ballots as well. I’m blessed with time and energy to work ballot chasing in my precinct. It is enjoyable and illuminating.
Say no more…say no more…
The Senate did hold up the appointment process of judicial nominees during BO’s second term. This allowed PDJT to nominate and get confirmed a record 54 Circuit Court of Appeals judges in his first term. He has also appointed another 10 Circuit Court Judges in his second term, bringing the total to 64. The total number of Circuit Court Judgeships is set at 179.
An additional 8 years of Rubio / Vance would move the number of Circuit Court appointments further.
Obama appointed 329 Federal Judges in 8 years.
Biden appointed 235 Federal Judges in 4 years.
So far in 6 years, Trump has been held back to only 179.
The entire senate is corrupt.
I count 290 Article III judge appointments by PDJT. There are another 11 district court judge nominations pending, which may or may not be acted on prior to the next Congress being sworn in January. 10 of those nominations were submitted on September 14.
Many judges time their retirement based upon who occupies the WH. If the senate is held by the opposing party, that affects the number of appointments that the President can obtain confirmation.
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.
Just another example of how divided this country really is. And you can thank the Communist Ideological influences within our Country over the last 30 years or so, especially within our educational institutions from Kindergarten thru Graduate Universities of Indoctrination.

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.
Slotkin actions make me think the CIA was captured by the commies a long time ago. They had a plan and got their people installed.
Once Brennan, the Muslin-Communist, got BHO installed, it was full speed ahead in destroying the country. Who could forget the BHO first term appointees quoting Mao’s Little Red Book?
Stupidity and leftist ideology are synonymous don’t ya know. IMHO
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.
Regrettable. Not amazing.
(And I wish I still had my Dad’s Corsa).
Libs tow the party line even if sitting on the bench of impartiality.
Guaranteed lifetime tenure takes away the consequences for foolish and destructive decisions. While the length of term can be argued, there ought not to be ANY government position not subject to review and dismissal, or at the least a maximum term.
” Monticello Dec. 25. 20.
if there be anything amiss therefore in the present state of our affairs, as the formidable deficit lately unfolded to us indicates, I ascribe it to the inattention of Congress to it’s duties, to their unwise dissipation & waste of the public contributions. they seemed, some little while ago to be at a loss for objects whereon to throw away the supposed fathomless funds of the treasury … but it is not from this branch of government we have most to fear. taxes & short elections will keep them right. the Judiciary of the US. is the subtle corps of sappers & miners constantly working under ground to undermine the foundations of our confederated fabric. they are construing our constitution from a coordination of a general and special governments to a general & supreme one alone. ”

WE CURRENTLY SUFFER The SAME MALADY
But, But Muh Gardener, Muh Nanny, Muh Housemaid!! cried all the Bush clan members.
But, but, Muh cheap labor cried all the friends of Bush..
How about you cheap sonsa beaches pay Americans a living wage to do these jobs?
If you cannot afford hiring American, then clean your own toilets!
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?
Why not?
To the Supreme Court.
Take the 3K offered and self deport.
Exactly. Only in Western countries are such generous offers made. “If you stop raping and pillaging, and sucking us dry, we’ll pay you to leave, AND provide transport.”
Imagine the self-deport rate if taxpayer funded immigration lawyers weren’t involved. Another anti-American program that should be defunded, and in fact, outlawed.
An illegal alien max household welfare program pays out 80K for doing nothing, so as long as sanctuary states keep the free spigot flowing, 3k doesn’t motivate these freeloaders to go home. I also think this Admin should be fining and/or placing severe sanctions on those countries that refuse to take back their citizens.
Sitting in a detention facility, eating prison food, and staring at 4 boring walls for weeks, months? Is that worth the risk as any chance of coming back the correct way would be lost. Feeling lucky ?
$80K? That’s enough to make someone “identify” as an alien 😊.
Does anyone check on the bonafide alien status of a claimant?
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.
You make a very salient point.
Woot! Woot! 🇺🇸💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸.
7 need to be removed.
MAGA
Remove Johnson as Speaker and you might get somewhere.
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
On October 1, SCOTUS agreed to hear Rhoney v. Barbosa da Cunha, involving the underlying statutory question: Does the mandatory-detention provision apply to illegal aliens already living inside the United States? Numerous other federal appeals courts have interpreted that provision differently from the 5th Circuit.
Now, the Supreme Court isn’t directly reviewing Friday’s constitutional ruling in the Rhoney case. But if the justices reject the 5th Circuit’s interpretation of the statute, that could undermine the foundation of this decision.
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.
America’s UniParty views “sympathy” as weakness. They will work to exploit that weakness at every opportunity.
Sympathy is a weakness we cannot afford.
France is now busy showing the world where Suicidal Empathy leads.
Hoping here that the French “peaceful riots” videos will motivate more and more legal Americans to vote to support Trump’s America First agenda on 11/3/26.
Do not agree at all for numerous reasons. If I had to pick the number one reason, it’s because what I have observed during my lifetime. That is, children of parents who respect this country and follow the rules, work hard and try to assimilate are NOT the same as children who have been taught to invade America, handouts are their right and they are victims whose focus is to create chaos to CHANGE the U S.
I hear what you are saying, but ask the French if they feel the same. Many of those rioters that you see in the streets burning, looting, and terrorizing are second generation and don’t care one whit about the land that is under their feet or the people who “welcomed” them there. It’s a harsh truth. If their parents respected their “new” country and it’s laws, and were willing to assimilate, perhaps they wouldn’t be so willing to partake in the destruction we are seeing.
Exactly. It’s NOT a “perfect world” and as such, some shit is going to hit the fan. But trying to draw lines and make individual distinctions is how this mess got started.
DEPORT THEM ALL!! And start over. It’s the law!
If mom and dad rob banks to fund a better life for their children, when caught mom and dad should do the time, not the kids – but the kids do not get to keep the college fund, ponies, stables and lavish lifestyle or the rest of the loot.
Not me. The percentage of illegals who have NOT received some form of taxpayer funded aid is infinitesimal. Trillions spent on illegals, while working class American taxpayers are struggling to pay the bills. THEIR kids don’t get free rides to Harvard, or a round of applause for being a “first generation American” to finish high school, or college, or medical school, all on the taxpayer dime. A dearth of manufacturing jobs too. The only immigration “gift” to working class Americans is cartel supplied narcotics.
The white liberal first destroyed the black family with the “War on Poverty”, and then went after poor whites. Loss of manufacturing base, yes. Drugs, absolutely. But above all, unfettered immigration.
Deport them ALL! The ENTIRE FAMILY. When 100 million illegals and (in my dreams) anchor babies are deported, imagine the room we’d have for selective, MERIT based, legal immigration. Including some of these kids of illegals. But they shouldn’t jump to the head of the line, just because they’ve been sucking on taxpayer teat since the day they arrived.
No I really don’t. If you overload the lifeboats, they sink.
They should go home with their family.
When old enough they can apply.
Kids need to be with parents, learn consequences like all kids.
A lot of people objected to this comment and I fully understand why that is.
It’s just difficult for me to punish a child for what his/her parents did. Also, allowing them the opportunity to ask to remain doesn’t mean automatically accepting them – the bar should be set high.
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.
As well, the Trump v Barbara Decision violated the Powers reserved by the People, as it was:
Against the Constitution and the clear, limited intent of the 14th Amendment by it framers and ratifiers;
Overreaching the Powers delegated to the Article. III. courts, which Powers did not include any “policy making” or “legislative” Powers, nor any Article. V. Power to “Amend the Constitution; and
Blatantly violated the Law of Nature, and Nature’s God which ALL PEOPLE Throughout History have Recognize: The First Duty of any “tribe” or “nation state” is to Protect Its People Against Invasion.
I will add that the “right to name a child” is known throughout all cultures as having the concomitant assignment of responsibility for that child. Thus, if the Parents are not US Citizens, their children born within US Borders are not US Citizens. … The “seditious six” should be removed from the supreme Court for “bad Behaviour”, i.e., beach of Oath to support the Constitution (there is no “lifetime” appointment). … And, the Decision made “null and void”.
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 even if they hide behind Swiss so called neutrality.
Yeah… about time.. Happy Dance singing Deport, Deport, Deport as I wiggle around
Good.
They NEVER should have been set free. Such leniency has made a mockery of enforcement against illegals.
The President should immediately order NO FOREIGN WIRE TRANSFERS BY ILLEGALS TRESPASSING IN THE USA.
The President DOES have that power to prevent money being sent abroad by wire.
Don’t let them work illegally in the USA and send American dollars abroad. The U.S. economy needs the recirculation of monies EARNED HERE TO STAY HERE.
Excellent !
They need to be deported.
This is an amazing ruling and one that is almost unbelievable, considering the shameless and outrageous judicial insurrection that we have been seeing for the last two years. Kudos to the court for getting this right!
The lower courts full of liberal activists had bizzarely deemed “seeking admission to the United States” to mean seeking admission at the border point of entry ONLY. According to these completely asinine and farcial rulings, the government may have the power to detain without bond illegals who seeked to enter the US and initiate deportation proceedings against them, but it had NO right to do the same for anyone who evaded detention and made their way to the hinterland and settled here, often brazenly.
Seeking admission to the United States means seeking admission for permanent residency, no matter where a person is located – at the border or within the country. It’s a sorry state of affairs that the government had to fight tooth and nail just to get this basic and obvious principle upheld.
Not looking good for Ilhan (of WW Eleven).
If Demarxists take House, they will change the law to end all of ICE-CBP…I’m glad my POTUS has a big VETO PEN
Then the task will fall to regulators and vigilantes. Trust me, nobody wants that path.
Or.. an illegal is paired with a liberal. Expect no Federal funds.
Amazing decision but not in the context of common sense.
There were a number of “judges” that have the ability to read the text of the law regarding illegals and still some way, some how come up with a rationalization to ignore plain language.
Ppl must vote 🔴…election of judges matter
Self deportaion, one thing Mitt was right about.
The democrats will probably file the same case with a different party in a different district with a favorable judge (Judge Murphey) and appeals court. This would trigger a SCOTUS intervention due to opposing rulings.
We need 50-200 camps in the US. After we get rid of the illegals the democrats can use them to house the republicans. That might be a good compromise to get it through Congress. /s
If Trump could go back in time, he should have just nominated 3 judges from the 5th Circuit to the Supreme Court, instead of ending up with the 3 Stooges: Amy, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh. And not just Trump, but why didn’t past Republican presidents just exclusively pick Supreme Court justices from the 5th Circuit. It would have saved us a lot of disappointment and heartache
I love my Fifth Circuit justices, but we need a stronger Republican majority in the Senate. When its’ 52-48 or 53-47, that means that de facto Supreme Court justices are selected by Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Thom Tillis, and a couple of other RINOs (remember Kavanaugh had to get Jeff Flake’s vote). The RINOs will vote with the party on the district and circuit judges outside of their states, but a Supreme Court nomination has to get their support.
At one time Edith Jones was the frontrunner in the Reagan Administration, but she was a solid pro-life vote, so they never put her forward.
The argument is the constitution, blah, blah.
The phrase We the People of the United States of America applies to citizens. The rights and protections with in the constitution only applies to citizens of the United States. My view.
The laws written regarding immigration are clear. No time periods, no well, I have a is citizen spouse and, or child. In the country illegally, face the laws.
Disregarding all the lazy and self-serving reasons some come up with to not go out and vote, keeping the Senate in Republican hands reduces the potential for the appointment of far-left judges, at least under president Trump, and that’s important as we see in this report.
The black robes are still too consequential in the political life of this country, far more than they were designed to be. But as long as they have consequence, it’s only good political stewardship to see that we exercise as much control over their composition as possible. There’s no point in complaining about bad decisions if we effectively hand the appointment power over to the anarcho- Dems.
And on that note, before Trump returned to office, I heard too much of the usual seminar talk of “our vote doesn’t matter,” or “they’re going to do whatever they want anyway, so why bother,” to have much patience for it anymore. Just like push polls that try to suppress patriotic turnout, seminar posters flood conservative sites at this time of the year calling a pox on both sides and proclaiming why they will refuse to vote. Those voices are not heard from again until the next election cycle. And yet, despite the prediction polls and seminar posters, Trump not only won last time, but actually took the popular vote.
Dismiss the noise, ignore the chaff, and full speed ahead. Don’t be head faked into not doing what you know you’re supposed to do.

Thank God !!!

Thank you Sundance for posting this wonderful news!
Thanks 5th Circuit,…. now, Tom Holman,….. go Rowdy Yates on’em all,…. “Head’em Up, Move’em Out!
One of the benefits of this 5th circuit decision is that any “emergency relief” petition to the Supreme Court has to go through Justice Alito as he oversees the 5th circuit!
Appeal coming followed by a stay.
Lawfare is a powerful delay tactic.
It’s so realistic, I can almost smell the smoke!
Tell this to California , NY , NJ and all the other sanctuary city states who will disregard and get some sympathetic judge to block the order.
Actually, the corrupt judges that followed the law this time, understand Trump will eventually remove them from the bench when he finally takes back the country from the Deep State. Maybe even prosecute them as well.
Good! Catching someone illegally in the country, and then putting them back on the street, is stupid.
Let’s see what the treasonous Supreme Court does next. (Thomas and Alito excepted.)
BUT GOD…. Thank you, Lord! Amen
Dear President Trump,
Please gather the stones to truly implement America First by putting Americans first by eliminating the H1B visa program and deport ALL H1B visa holders.
This action will benefit tens of millions of American citizens. It is simply the right thing to do.
Yes it will send All the corporations who have been massively abusing this program for decades into apoplexy.
Never forget virtually ALL of these corporations are among the wealthiest in the world, and in part their wealth was gained at the expense of American citizens.
This should be one of your top priorities following the midterms.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Greg Babb
A country without borders cannot exist as a nation.
