The U.S. Immigration Catch-All Thread [R]

A republic, if you can keep it.

Like this person, who earned her MS and PhD in South Dakota? But she's from India and has a moving violation, so deport her.

An international student in South Dakota, who earned two degrees amid her fight against the Trump administration’s attempt to deport her, has been granted injunction.

Priya Saxena, who’s from India, received a doctorate in chemical and biological engineering and a master’s in chemical engineering from South Dakota School of Mines & Technology this past weekend. Just over a month ago, Saxena had been notified that her visa and status in the country had been revoked.

Saxena’s attorney, Jim Leach, told NBC News that her sole infraction was for a failure-to-yield to an emergency vehicle from four years ago, which he described as “the lowest possible traffic offense.” ​

 

If she had any humor, she'd go with this:

 

That sounds closer to Death Race 2000.

 

Supreme Court rules 7-2 that the admin wasn't providing sufficient due process, following up on its April 19 per curiam opinion. Also notable is that the opinion calls out the admin for dishonestly about the timing of the events leading up to that first order. Also throws some shade at the district court and the Fifth Circuit for how they characterized some of the facts.

Well, if it's Gorsuch, I'd be saying "Easy there, Mr. Pot....."

 

And then there is Kavanaugh. "What are facts?"

 

Congratulations. Do you have lottery numbers for next week too?

The Supreme Court on Monday gave the Trump administration the green light to revoke special legal protections for thousands of Venezuelan immigrants, which could pave the way for them to be deported.

The high court granted an emergency application filed by the administration, meaning officials can move forward with reversing a decision made at the tail end of the Biden administration to extend protections for almost 350,000 Venezuelans under the federal Temporary Protected Status program.

The brief order noted that liberal Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson would have denied the application. Litigation will now continue in lower courts.​

Order was written by Kagan, but only means that the government can move forward. It doesn't mean that the decision permanent.

 

I get your point, of course, but she won't need a pardon.

 

Sorry for the tweet...there's video.
