The U.S. Supreme Court late Wednesday gave the Trump administration permission to enforce its toughest restriction yet on asylum seekers at the southern border, even though a lawsuit to stop the new policy is still working its way through the lower courts.
As a result, the government can now refuse to consider a request for asylum from anyone who failed to apply for it in another country after leaving home but before coming here. The order means, for instance, that migrants from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador cannot seek asylum in the U.S. if they didn't first ask for it in Mexico.
This is absolutely disgusting. The Supreme Court is aiding and abetting this criminal president.
Seems like a logical and just decision. There is a difference in escaping persecution in your native country and Voluntarily wanting to migrate to another country. Glad the Supreme Court understands the difference even if the left can't.

Are you for real. Th4 supreme court is the final arbiter of this lands laws. The Supreme Court is ensuring the future of this country. It's
shaping a three point landing by eliminating the liberal dream of allowing America to become a boarding house for 3rd worlders of every stripe .
Yes I am 'for real', this is an abomination, this goes against everything this country was founded on. Trump and his Supreme Court toadies are following the orders of Stephen Miller who is the white nationalist Trump whisperer.

The Mexico paying part has already happened.The Supreme Court built a wall. And it looks like Mexico may pay for it...
OK! Please tell what this country was founded on that Trump is not observing to the letter!

This is odd:
"Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg noted their dissent. Five justices were needed to grant the request; the votes of the others were not publicly announced."
Redirect Notice
I wonder if the other seven justices all voted yes or if some of them just didn't join the dissent. As much as possible, we need these votes to not be close and certainly not to fall along ideological lines.
Sotomayor and fellow liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg were the lone two judges who dissented in the issuing of the stay of a nationwide injunction of a Trump administration rule that would drastically cut down on the number of people who could seek asylum in the U.S.
I am sorry you don't believe in the rule of law. It must be hard.

The Supreme Court thinks there's a chance Trump's order is legal?
Or they don't care whether it is or not?
What is happening here? I thought it was a slam dunk that the order is illegal.

How is it illegal?
They can apply in their own countries.We won't ever know why they tried to immigrate because they're being disqualified before they ever talk to a government official.
