The continued effect of Trump’s anti-immigration policies, now affecting those seeking political asylum from the U.S., from The New York Times that came with today’s paper…the PURGE, as I call, this…
The Trump administration is intensifying efforts to deport people to countries where they have no connections.
Last month, lawyers for the Department of Homeland Security filed almost 5,000 motions to dismiss asylum cases and force applicants to seek protection elsewhere, a staggering increase from the few hundred such motions filed each month this summer.
the “theory” of this started SEVEN years ago, and is only, put into “action” now, off of YouTube
The surge, documented in an analysis of public immigration court data, comes as federal officials have been working out new asylum agreements with a handful of nations including Honduras and Uganda. Under these “safe third country” accords, foreign governments are offering to take in limited numbers of asylum-seekers from the United States, promising that the U.S. deportees will be able to apply for asylum in those nations instead.
In immigration courts across the country, government lawyers are now increasingly asking judges to “pretermit” or dismiss, asylum cases without hearings, asserting that applicants can seek asylum in those “safe third countries.”
from ten days ago…
Judges appear receptive to the requests, according to the court data analysis. In November, at least 230 asylum-seekers who were not citizens of Honduras were ordered expelled to that country, compared with forty such people in October and one in September.
Homeland Security officials say the process will allow people to pursue asylum claims in countries where they do not fear persecution. “DHS is using every lawful tool available to address the backlog and abuse of the asylum system,” the agency said in a statement.
In some cases, an immigrant may be subject to multiple motions, and DHS officials have told agency prosecutors nationwide that they should list as many third-country agreements as possible for a given immigrant, according to agency guidance obtained by The New York Times.
But as this practice has been expanded, it has been coming under more scrutiny, with deportation to Uganda more than 7,000 miles from Washington, faulted by some immigration lawyers as unduly harsh.
Lawyers who represent immigrants and scholars who study the asylum system called the motion the latest attempt to dismantle international human rights protections that President Donald Trump has denounced as a “scam.” For decades, a person who enters the United States seeking asylum has been allowed to live and work in the country while the case move through an overburdened and underfunded court system.
So, this is, the PURGE then, of Trump’s BLEACHING out the population of the DIVIDED STATES of Trump (no longer THE United States of America) then? By “passing” these “unwanted folks” who are escaping their own countries’ persecution or whatever, out of the country, like their, unwanted TRASH, I mean, that IS what you do, to TRASH, something you don’t want in your homes or neighborhoods, you try and get it all out, and that’s what the DIVIDED STATES of Trump is doing.
Human rights completely DEAD now, in these DIVIDED States of, Trump here. The land of opportunity will offer NO opportunity, and we can’t pursue our happiness (that is, a PART of the PREAMBLE of the U.S. Constitution, no???), we don’t eve got our most basic living needs met, when we try to seek ASYLUM from Uncle Sam now………………
