The Trump administration can deny asylum to Central Americans who cross through to the U.S., the Supreme Court said Wednesday, giving new life to White House efforts to deter a flood of immigrants seeking refuge at the southern border.
The policy, one of several measures the Trump administration has taken to deter immigration from Latin America, demands that refugees seek asylum in a safe country they enter before reaching the U.S.
The rules effectively cut off most asylum claims by people coming from El Salvador, Guatemala or Honduras.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, filed a dissent.

...AND people coming from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Congo, Nigeria or any of the other shit-hole countries from whence arrivals at our southern border originated to spew their lies.
“Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, filed a dissent.”
Thank you RINOs!!! Without your votes, virtually none of Trump’s decent judges would have ever made it to the courts, any of them and Obama’s judges would still control those courts.
Interesting, A Latina and a Communist disapprove.
“...AND people coming from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Congo, Nigeria or any of the other shit-hole countries from whence arrivals at our southern border originated to spew their lies.”
Actually, they never had the right to stay here while their claims are processed, only Central Americans, due to guilt-trip legislation that Bush Jr. signed in 2007 (I think). I suspect that they figured with all the confusion on the Southern Border, they’d be able to get in anyway
She’s not just any Latina. She’s a “wise Latina”, who because of the breadth of her life experience, can come up with better decisions in court, to paraphrase what she said about being a wise Latina.
“A Latina and a Communist disapprove.”
And their dissent is a piece of work. No mention of any laws or the constitution. They simply state that vulnerable people from Central America should be allowed in because they think it’s the right thing to do.
Key that is lost in the news, even among Freepers, is that Breyer and Kagan approved. This is a 7-2 ruling.
I hope this case is a giant shot across the bow, to the liberals who continually seek nationwide injunctions against the legal executive actions of this president.
I recall in the opinion by Justice Thomas on the travel ban case, he mentioned how the Supreme Court should look at these injunctions being issued against presidential actions, and how they are preventing a president from exercising lawful authority.
So perhaps the Supreme Court, in this case a 7-2 vote, with even some liberals agreeing on the legal principle that we should not see pre-emptive injunctions against an executive action, will stamp out this nonsense of the liberals finding a single liberal judge somewhere to block Trump’s actions.
You can’t repost this enough.
Liberal heads are melting down over this I’m sure
The Supreme Court didn’t authorize anything.
They slapped down the Ninth Circuit.
“The rules effectively cut off most asylum claims by people coming from El Salvador, Guatemala or Honduras.”
That could only be true if their claims were not justified.
Your right, that slipped my mind completely, thanks.
Its really nice that SCOTUS is allowing the execution of constitutional law.
That’s cool! Should have reinforcements behind him though. But it’s accurate - he’s doing this by himself for the most part.
More winning. Still not tired. Four more years.
