The Biden Administration was gearing up to release illegal migrants into the country in droves without court dates —but a federal judge has stepped in to prevent it.
According to a report from Breitbart News, federal Judge T. Kent Wetherell of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida, in response to a lawsuit filed by Florida’s AG Ashley Moody, has temporarily blocked Biden’s new catch-and-release policy.
The temporary restraining order lasts 14 days and says the following: DHS is enjoined from implementing or enforcing the parole policy contained in the May 10, 2023, Memorandum from U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz, titled “Policy on Parole with Conditions in Limited Circumstances Prior to Issuance of a Charging Document (Parole with Conditions).
From Breitbart News:
“A TRO is an extraordinary measure that preserves the status quo while a federal trial judge is determining whether to issue a preliminary injunction, or PI,” explained Breitbart News senior legal contributor Ken Klukowski.
“A PI then lasts all the way until a final judgment in a lawsuit, though in this case the Biden administration will promptly take the PI to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit in Atlanta. This order would stay in place during that time.”
The impact of the court decision is unclear. Biden’s border chief — Alejandro Mayorkas — seems determined to admit a huge number of job-seeking migrants. For example, Mayorkas may try to divert the migration through other questionable legal loopholes or announce that the U.S. superpower does not have the funds to detain the migrants.
“This is a harmful ruling that will result in unsafe overcrowding at C.B.P. facilities and undercut our ability to efficiently process and remove migrants, and risks creating dangerous conditions for Border Patrol agents and migrants,” the agency said in a statement to the New York Times.
AG Moody stopped by Fox Business and shared the clip on Twitter:
No U.S. President in history will go down as being weaker, more incompetent, more of a threat to the security of this nation than @JoeBiden. He will be the kryptonite of America. We will keep fighting these unlawful and dangerous policies in court. @MariaBartiromo pic.twitter.com/2Mg8uL7T7R
