If only he felt the same way about getting his paycheck on time...
Judge has a fair point. If you’ve ever helped someone through a legal immigration-naturalization process it’s impossible to ignore how Kafkaesque the system is for people who are trying to follow the rules and do the right thing. That’s one of the contributors to illegal immigration, as illegals don’t have to deal with a torturous bureaucracy.
And the name Ricardo Martinez tells me all I need to know.
Applying for political asylum is the latest immigration scam in the playbook.
The Trump admin is trying to tighten up on the process - for example, let asylum seekers know within days instead of months or years, whether they can stay in country to make their case. As it was, folks would apply for asylum, work here illegally for 3-4 years, then return home with their ill-gotten gains once their flimsy application is denied.
The applicants were not making a serious application for asylum. They just wanted to work here illegally for a few years.
Got news for that dumb ass judge.
Foreign nationals know our immigration laws 10x better than he does.
They use our system against us constantly.
Who is he kidding here?
A Mexican “judge” making OUR judicial system look like it’s run by a bunch of retarded ***holes. Come on America. Wake up!
Hopefully it’s like those car commercials: “All credit applications will be accepted.” Accepted is not the same as approved.
I’d like to see the UN make itself useful and set up localized asylum areas worldwide. These areas would have roughly the same culture, majority religion, language, etc as the people seeking asylum. Trump proposed this for Syria during the election with Safe Zones. Once the crisis that caused the issue has subsided they could return. Always thought it was a good idea.
They have a whole year to apply? That should be the first thing they do (after they apply for welfare benefits.)

parents were migrant crop pickers no names or whether they were here legally when he was born, but they moved to WA when he was six and were one of the first Latino families to live there year round - how special.
Another leftist bastard.
Asylum for Brits and Canadians who make fun of islam
We are not concerned with the conditions in YOUR country.
We ARE concerned with the condition or OUR country.
IMPEACH this SOB.
I'm unaware of such an oppressive regime in Guatemala.
Of course, the judge said they could apply for asylum, he did not say they had a right to be granted it. And that is where the Trump administration can prevent this from turning in to an "asylum-palooza" for Central Americans.
