      The new rule aims to expedite the process by which asylum seekers can be deemed ineligible for asylum based on specific criteria, such as “national security risks” (whatever that means) or prior criminal convictions, much earlier in the process. This allows for quicker removal of individuals who do not meet the eligibility requirements for asylum.

      The policy intends to streamline asylum processing and enhance border security by addressing eligibility during the initial screening stage rather than later in the process. This approach is expected to help manage the high volume of asylum claims and reduce the backlog in immigration courts.

          Ultimately, the idea is to put the people who need it more first. I’ll believe it when I see it, but this better than a wall!

      He’s always been hostile to immigrants. In October he deported more than the former deporter in chief did.

      We couldn’t expect anything different from someone that hung out with white seipremeists
