A federal judge in Texas has thrown out the Biden administration's attempt to legalize hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants married to U.S. citizens via a "parole in place" program.

The program, called "Keeping Families Together," was introduced by the Biden administration during the summer and would have given protection from deportation to illegal immigrants who are married to U.S. citizens.

U.S. District Judge J. Campbell Barker, who was appointed by now President-elect Donald Trump, ruled on Thursday that the program is unlawful and exceeded Biden's executive authority.

"We just WON our lawsuit with Ken Paxton, Raul Labrador, and a coalition of 14 states. We have officially STOPPED the Biden-Harris Administration’s illegal attempt to grant mass amnesty to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens," America First Legal wrote in a post on X following the decision.

I don't get it.

If someone gets married to a foreign broad, say a filipina mail order bride, don't they usually get them legalized before shipping? Why would they be in America and illegal?
