A federal judge on Wednesday took the extraordinary step of ordering that asylum seekers who sued after their deportation be returned to the U.S. to have their claims heard anew, ruling against the Trump administration's revised asylum policies.
The ruling from U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan in Washington came a day after the same judge presided over a contentious sentencing hearing for former national security adviser Michael Flynn -- in which he questioned whether the ex-White House official committed treason and accused him of selling out the United States to foreign interests. He later delayed Flynns sentencing until 2019, as part of Special Counsel Robert Muellers Russia investigation.
In his sweeping ruling Wednesday against the Trump administration's immigration policies, Sullivan said recent changes violated federal law.
The Court holds that it has jurisdiction to hear plaintiffs challenges to the credible fear policies, that it has the authority to order the injunctive relief, and that, with the exception of two policies, the new credible fear policies are arbitrary, capricious, and in violation of the immigration laws, Sullivan concluded.
Federal judge expresses 'disgust and disdain' towards Flynn, prosecutors in courtVideo Sullivan went a big step further by ordering that the government to return to the United States the plaintiffs who were unlawfully deported and to provide them with new credible fear determinations consistent with the immigration laws.

Yesterday the judge said some things in the Flynn hearing that indicated he hadn’t done his homework. Now this.

Asylum seekers must apply in first country they enter per the law, in this case Mexico.

Has this Judge forgotten these rules?
Also, most of Asylum seekers never show up for their hearing date.
The Judge assumes he knows better than DHS, ICE and the POTUS and his advisers
I assume he will lose when the case is appealed.
The Judge should be fined, fired or demoted if he loses at the Supreme Court.

I believe I would respond, "But, your honor: I have not been supplied adequate funds to carry out your order."
I do believe some of these judges get their law degrees from Wall Mart.
The black robes know everything.

Was it President Jackson who shrugged of a Supreme Court order by noting the SC’s lack of ability to enforce something against the executive branch? He said something like, “Where’s his army?”
