Supreme Court rejects Trump plea to enforce asylum ban
20 minutes ago



WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court won’t let the Trump administration begin enforcing a ban on asylum for any immigrants who illegally cross the U.S.-Mexico border.

New Justice Brett Kavanaugh and three other conservative justices sided with the administration.

The court’s order Friday leaves in place lower court rulings that blocked President Donald Trump’s proclamation in November automatically denying asylum to people who enter the country from Mexico without going through official border crossings.

Trump said he was acting in response to caravans of migrants making their way to the border.

The administration had also complained that the nationwide order preventing the policy from taking effect was too broad.

But Chief Justice John Roberts and the court’s four more liberal justices rejected the administration’s suggestion for narrowing it.

All this means is the SC will allow the case to progress through the system naturally, not that they won’t hear it, at all.

A great example of why voting for the Pubs so we avoid having leftists on the court is a 50/50 crap shoot at best.

I'll bet when the obamacare appeal gets to the SCOTUS Roberts will side with the liberal justices in defending it, even though his basis for saying it was constitutional was the "taxing" component (the individual mandate) which has been eliminated.

Correct decision.  It’s a shame that Kavanaugh was on the wrong end of it, although that may have to do more with the issue of national injunctions and not asylum.

When RGB kicks the bucket we will get a do-over for the unwise appointment of Roberts.

That is my thought exactly.  Roberts appointment was a mistake.  He is a liberal and I find it quite disturbing that he was sell out this country.  In essence he has ruled that the Commander in Chief does not have the authority to protect this country.  He's ruling politically rather than constitutionally!

I hope Ginsberg decides to step down after the first of the year and Trump gets to appoint another conservative. 
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

@bilo

Let's see,here. Roberts married the first woman he ever dated,and then they adopted a couple of blonde with blue eyed children from Argentina.

Gee,I wonder how he will rule on AIDS funding and other homosexual issues?

You are right. "Insane" would be more accurate.

Nope.  It was a perfectly sane decision.

But a perfectly insane law that allows illegals to apply.

From article:

The ban conflicts with an immigration law that says immigrants can apply for asylum regardless of how they enter the U.S., Tigar said.

Nope. 

First, the lower court’s decision is correct on the asylum law, which is pretty clear and pretty clearly does not support what Trumpie Bear wants to do. 

Second, a nationwide temporary injunction makes sense because otherwise, the state that sits within the district covered by the district court’s order would be unfairly burdened by people going there to file asylum applications.

So, how is it that Ginbserg was able to vote on this??  It has been reported that she voted from her hospital bed.  Yet, McCain's vote was not acceptable unless he actually was in chamber.  ????

@bilo

And oddly enough,he was nominated by Boy Jorge,who was also know for loving to kiss other men. Especially Saudi princes.

Go figure.
