Because it would really help American Tech if our unversities didn't have legions of foreign students paying out of state tuition (and being exposed to American culture).

Maybe he can ask Putin to send him their specs, a list of contractors, and cost estimates.

Incompetent buffoonery has its costs. Who knew?

Now that they have a lifetime position free from the pollitical whims of congress, the president and the voters, I wonder if SC justices feel more at ease doing what's right?...

Honestly, it's not a hard decision from Administrative Procedures Act perspective.  But they found no equal rights argument (that's not such a hard decision either.  Only Sotomayor was willing to go there).

 

There is nothing preventing Trump from addressing the flaws in rulemaking and rescinding DACA again.  Somewhat doubtful that he will cross that bridge before the election, but until Congress passes a law, deferred action recipients will always be in limbo.

[No Excuses]

As if there was another reason to vote out this buffoon in November, but this particularly cruel decision that is also a very unpopular policy plank nationally should be thrown right back in his face. To highlight both the cruelty at the heart of this administration and the lack of brains to act on what it intends to do.

“DACA recipients deserve closure” is a funny way of saying we want to deport them.

U.S. Must Release Children From Family Detention Centers, Judge Rules

 

Citing the severity of the coronavirus pandemic, a federal judge in Los Angeles on Friday ordered the release of migrant children held in the country’s three family detention centers.

 

The order to release the children by July 17 came after plaintiffs in a long-running case reported that some of them have tested positive for the virus. It applies to children who have been held for more than 20 days in the detention centers run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, two in Texas and one in Pennsylvania.

 

There were 124 children living in those facilities on June 8, according to the ruling.

 

In her order, Judge Dolly M. Gee of the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California criticized the Trump administration for its spotty compliance with recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. To prevent the virus from spreading in congregate detention facilities, the agency had recommended social distancing, the wearing of masks and early medical intervention for those with virus symptoms.

 

“The family residential centers are on fire and there is no more time for half measures,” she wrote.

 

Given the pandemic, Judge Gee wrote, ICE must work to release the children with “all deliberate speed,” either along with their parents or to suitable guardians with the consent of their parents.
