It was legal under Biden's E/Os, NOT ILLEGAL.

WHEN Trump became President, Trump new E/Os.... made legal immigration policy under Biden, illegal under him....

and made it retroactive...so people legally let in under the Biden admin that were seeking asylum, or paroled, are now being told ....sorry Charlie, and are being deported before their immigration court date as promised.

Nope. Biden can’t negate immigration law by simply ignoring them.

Can we all at least agree to reforms of a prez's authority to invoke emergency powers?

President Trump has repeatedly invoked federal emergency powers to pursue his more controversial political priorities. He declared a national emergency at the southern border, which allowed him to secure funds for constructing a border wall—a policy priority that Congress had refused to fund. More recently, he used emergency powers to criminalize cooperation with the International Criminal Court’s investigation of U.S. activity in Afghanistan, effectively stonewalling the investigation. Notably, under the cover of declared emergencies, President Trump has used the expanded powers to pursue economic objectives such as imposing tariffs on Mexico and China.

Like the use of tariffs during 2.0.

Nope. We don’t agree.

Rather, his case is an example of the regime carrying out an agenda in violation of court orders and the law.

not true Berg

Garcia is a perp, not a victim

The D's empowered ICE in 96 ,97 to forgo judicials.....

The D's also assumed more deportations than the current administrations

Get your facts right plz

~S~

The thread is about the Trump administrations inability to carry out a prosecution.

The Bondi DOJ can carry out a prosecution just fine.

The problem is that the left keeps pushing to get this fellow freed from jail in the mean time and that just isn't acceptable.

These are the facts relative to Garcia's case.

The bitter irony is that the absence of a final order of removal means Abrego Garcia’s wrongful deportation to El Salvador in March was doubly unlawful. We already knew that it was in violation of an immigration judge order that he not be removed to El Salvador specifically, but it now appears likely there was no legal basis to remove him anywhere at all.

Have you been following the Comey case?

I guess you didn't actually read the article. LOL

I agree!

Best thing would be for democrats to run Mr Garcia for Congress in the midterms, then as VP in '28

I would add "lawfully."

I agree OP, and I believe that justice will be served.

If it is it will be despite the regime's best efforts.

What do you think about a bipartisan commission assigned to study the trump regime's abuses and come up with a list of reforms to prevent them from being repeated?

I must admit I'd also like to see some personal consequences for people like the blonde sock puppet, Halligan, and Todd Blanche. Like disbarment.

Dotard being beyond the reach of the law.

It's team D that threw 'due process' under the bus Berg.....~S~

That is fatuous, factually inaccurate spin.

That was inevitable.

Trump exposed all the flaws in the legality of the America President.

I've long believed that they'll write laws that will stop future Presidents from doing what Trump has done, is doing and will do before he leaves the Office.

In 5-10 years, if not before, there'll be more honest discussions about what's going on now, and it won't be nice.

I guarantee it.

He didn't. U.S. Immigration law is loose as a goose, and E/Os give the President executive power to make these immigration decisions.

That's why no republican lawsuits against the President for breaking immigration law would prevail.... why Biden could do, what he did by setting the limits on who could seek asylum, or parole, or refugee status legally and get a court date for an immigration judge, to determine.

And Trump had to do HIS OWN Executive Orders, to make immigration policy what it is now, under him.... Trump did not just say we will now follow immigration law as written by Congress, because Biden was not breaking U.S.Immigration policy....

Trump had to use his E/Os to make his own immigration policy, and deportation policy, which parts of those new E/O policies are in the courts now, being challenged.

That's what Trump is doing for all the years of lawfare against him. Glad to see you are now in favor of amends.

I hope you are right. But it didn't happen after 1.0.

The post-Trump period should have been a moment ripe for reforms of executive power. It seems increasingly possible that the window of opportunity may pass by without

There has never been lawfare against him. He used lawfare to avoid being held accountable for his most egregious crimes.

The President’s Legal Shell Game to Avoid Accountability​

It is a fundamental principle in our country that nobody is above the law, not even the president. This is not a new idea—it comes from the founding generation, which fought a war to escape from a king who legally “could do no wrong” and then tried to build “a government of laws, and not of men.” It is well documented that President Trump and his lawyers are engaged in a sustained assault on this principle. Again and again—in courts, in Congress and in public—they have argued that the...
