Summary
The Trump administration has abruptly fired 20 immigration judges without explanation, raising concerns amid efforts to accelerate deportations.
The firings include judges who had yet to be sworn in and senior officials overseeing immigration courts, which already face a backlog of 3.7 million cases.
Union official Matthew Biggs said it was unclear if the move was meant to send a message on immigration policy but called it part of a broader federal workforce purge, adding, “They’re treating these people as if they’re not human beings. It’s bad all around.”
People may see this as a self-own by Trump, but it is not. They’re going all in on Gitmo and extra-jurisdictional imprisonment and suspension of habeas corpus.
Yep.
These firings simply an excuse. Now they can say “look, there’s no judges to handle cases. Backlog” etc…
Another Chumped up problem created simply to support the Chump narrative.
🤡 🤡
BINGO. They’re going to create a regime of terror to try to dissuade people from coming and scare the rest into leaving.
Without judges, he can “deport” legal immigrants or even citizens and who will prove him wrong?
So… I assume the jobs report in America isn’t looking so good right now… How many thousands of people are jobless now from Trump’s actions?
Same people supporting this bullshit are the same ones who said we should be willing to die for the economy during COVID
Joblessness is usually not the issue it is jobs with a livable wage. And the answer to that is pretty shit.
Homeless is illegal & yet the government seems so set on making people jobless.
Jobs numbers were going to be bad with tech layoffs, this is just to obfuscate
I know of one immigrant in particular who should be fired.
A backlog of 3.7 million cases… Jesus.
They’re obstructing the already shitty lawful channel to force immigrants into the unlawful ones.
That’s always been the case.
