The Supreme Court's Stunning, Radical Immigration Decision Explained
Vox ^ | 08/24/21 | Ian Millhiser

Posted on 08/24/2021 10:41:21 PM PDT by krogers58

The Supreme Court handed down an order Tuesday evening that makes no sense.

It is not at all clear what the Biden administration is supposed to do in order to comply with the Court’s decision in Biden v. Texas. That decision suggests that the Department of Homeland Security committed some legal violation when it rescinded a Trump-era immigration policy, but it does not identify what that violation is. And it forces the administration to engage in sensitive negotiations with at least one foreign government without specifying what it needs to secure in those negotiations.

One of the most foundational principles of court decisions involving foreign policy is that judges should be extraordinarily reluctant to mess around with foreign affairs. The decision in Texas defies this principle, fundamentally reshaping the balance of power between judges and elected officials in the process.

Vox has their panties in a bunch, as Biden was ordered by SCOTUS to reinstitute Trump's "Remain in Mexico" policy, while your asylum due process is ongoing.

Apparently Vox is saying the administration is too stupid to reinstitute an existing policy. Likely they are right, too stupid.

Let me explain for ya.

There’s this thing called a border. It’s a line between two countries.

“fundamentally reshaping the balance of power between judges and elected officials in the process.”

That’s rich.

How many decades of liberal legislating from the bench has it been?

“Biden was ordered by SCOTUS to reinstitute Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy, “

I think that the Court was ruling on a 1996 law, not Pres. Trump’s EO.

Hey, liberals, you were fine with the Supreme Court saying it was all right for Obama to do the DACA thing, but not fine for Trump to rescind it, so you don’t get to complain now with “why was it okay for Trump to do this but not Biden to un-do it?”

Leftist democrat taliban party members always label things they don’t like as radical or controversial.

They really are the enemy, folks.

No...ruled on Trump's MPP.

You have to have a good reason to do away with an EO. The court knows what they're doing.

This thread exists because people like me thought, "Well finally, the supers did something right" ....

Except when I read this, I learned it is not as simplistic as the headlines we've read in FR imply.

Read the report

The courts is doing what Deep State tells it to do.

The question is why did Deep State tell it do this...

It should go without saying that Mexico is likely to have strong opinions about this abrupt policy shift. The original Remain in Mexico policy came about only after the United States secured Mexico’s cooperation, and it is unlikely that the United States could successfully reimplement this policy without Mexico’s permission.


Mexico is on record as being very annoyed with the Biden Administration for rescinding this provision, as it drives massive immigration through their country which they have to deal with.

Ian Millhiser - The same guy who thought a 99% tax on the unvaccinated would be constitutional and a good idea.
