Sullivan, the same guy that hammered Michael Flynn, added a roadblock to the the Trump Administration&#8217;s efforts to turn away bogus asylum seekers. The judge opined that Congress, not the president, determines the standards required for asylum&#8230; As if President Trump&#8217;s legal team didn&#8217;t review the policy before it was implemented. This has the appearance of judicial activism.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">From The Washington Times:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Judge Emmet G. Sullivan &#8212; who a day earlier had excoriated former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn &#8212; ordered the government to allow migrants with iffy claims to be given a full chance to make their case for asylum.<\/p>\n<p>And he ordered the U.S. to un-deport plaintiffs in the case who already had been ousted under the new policy, saying they deserve to be brought back and allowed to claim asylum.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because it is the will of Congress &#8212; not the whims of the executive &#8212; that determines the standard for expedited removal, the court finds that those policies are unlawful,&#8221; Judge Sullivan wrote.<\/p>\n<p>His decision overturns a move by former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who had tried to block asylum claims of migrants who said they faced gang violence or domestic abuse back home.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Sessions had argued that while traumatic, those reasons strayed far from the political or religious persecution by governments that traditionally made someone eligible for asylum.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Also within the article, the White House&#8217;s response:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Today&#8217;s ruling is only the latest example of judicial activism that encourages migrants to take dangerous risks; empowers criminal organizations that spread turmoil in our hemisphere; and undermines the laws, borders, Constitution, and sovereignty of the United States,&#8221; <strong>&#8211; Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can read more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2018\/dec\/19\/judge-blocks-donald-trumps-asylum-crackdown\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Judge Emmet G.
