Left Wing Judge Blocks Trump’s Order On Stopping Refugee Imports

It’s always something with these wackos. Leftist always cheer bringing in the detritus of the 3rd world, as long as they are settled Elsewhere. Maybe the Trump admin should settle the ones that he’s forced to bring in near where the judge lives

Judge blocks Trump’s executive order suspending refugee admissions to the US

A federal judge on Tuesday blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order implementing an indefinite “pause” on refugee admissions to the United States, saying the directive appeared to amount to a “nullification” of federal law.

Trump’s order, which instructed the Department of Homeland Security to immediately stop processing refugee admissions, “has crossed the line from permissible discretionary action to effective nullification of congressional will,” said U.S. District Judge Jamal Whitehead, a Seattle-based appointee of former President Joe Biden.

“To be sure the president has substantial discretion … to suspend refugee admissions, but that authority is not limitless,” Whitehead continued. “I cannot ignore Congress’ detailed framework for refugee admissions and the limits it placed on the president’s ability to suspend the same. … Our system of separated powers demands no less.”

Send them to Seattle. Let the uber-leftist city deal with them. Really, as long as Trump is in office they can significantly slow walk any standing admissions and not work on any new ones. The judge can rule all he wants, but, the power to accept refugees was placed in the hands of the Executive Branch per the law passed by Congress. It is not required to accept groups of refugees into the U.S. Especially since the EO specifically mentions that the suspension is meant to continue while

Sec. 4. Resumption of the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program. Within 90 days of this order, the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State, shall submit a report to the President through the Homeland Security Advisor regarding whether resumption of entry of refugees into the United States under the USRAP would be in the interests of the United States, in light of the policies outlined in section 2 of this order. The Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State, shall submit further reports every 90 days thereafter until I determine that resumption of the USRAP is in the interests of the United States.

The start date was January 27th, 2025. Section 1 of the order noted that American cities are already innundated with too many fake asylum seekers and illegals migrants, hence

The United States lacks the ability to absorb large numbers of migrants, and in particular, refugees, into its communities in a manner that does not compromise the availability of resources for Americans, that protects their safety and security, and that ensures the appropriate assimilation of refugees. This order suspends the USRAP until such time as the further entry into the United States of refugees aligns with the interests of the United States.

So, why is the judge freaking out? It’s 90 days? At this point, 60 days. The duly passed law, The United States Refugee Act of 1980, actually puts a cap on refugees at 50,000 per year, with exceptions allowed for emergency situations. It doesn’t mean the U.S. must take in 50K a year. So, what if the Trump admin follows the judges rule and takes in, say, 500? Or 50? That would be cooperation, right?

Whitehead’s injunction blocks key components of one of Trump’s Day One executive orders, which refugee resettlement groups said caused some would-be immigrants to be stranded overseas after selling their belongings before their scheduled travel to the U.S. was abruptly canceled.

Whitehead issued his ruling from the bench Tuesday following a hearing on a suit brought by individual refugees, their family members and groups that have contracts to resettle refugees in the U.S. Whitehead said the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Health and Human Services had taken steps that exceeded Trump’s order without proper deliberation.

That’s it: the hard left wing groups make gobs of money bringing people to the U.S. who mostly never seem to want assimilate and expect Americans to kowtow to their social mores and beliefs and lifestyles. It really goes to the old saying “if you have to ask why, the answer is money.”
