  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

More changes at BIA.

Appellants automatically lose, unless a majority agree to hear the appeal.

DOJ wants to turbocharge deportations by swiftly dismissing immigration court appeals

A proposed rule change from the Department of Justice would force the Board of Immigration Appeals to dismiss most of them, unless a majority of the board agrees to hear them.

The proposal takes a “sledgehammer” to due process, according to Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, senior fellow with immigration advocacy think tank American immigration Council.

Board of Immigration Appeals judges do not typically hear cases but review and make decisions based on the record in immigration courts. Those are decided by individual members of the 19-member Board — 12 of whom were appointed by Bondi.
I think this is a GREAT change. It allows cases to move more quickly than before. Instead of waiting so long, a case can be decided quicker and the person can appeal it in a more timely manner. Speeding up the process is a good thing. And this appears to be cost effective as well. I would support more judges and courts IF having more would mean decisions would be made on site rather than just preliminary hearings and letting them go. It should work like this.

You come in and claim asylum, you get put is a holding facility and within a week you go see a judge and present your case. The judge should be required to make a decision within a week. Then you are either approved or not. If not approved, you remain in holding until appeals are over. Once its all done, you arw either returned home or are allowed in. This whole process shouldn't take longer than 6 months.

I also thonk we need to change the laws on seeking asylum. If you want asylum you should have two choices. You can seek it on line or present yourself to a border facility. If you sneak over and get caught yoj should NOT be allowed to seek asylum. You are immediately arrested and deported without appeal. Period.

Bring up the error - and they ..... well it's evident

Perhaps that is why 18% is the best that can be done?
You cant expect the world to speak truth. Its always the other guy's fault.

Both my parents spent seven months in an internment camp in a third country before being allowed to come into the US under asylum - Was FDR a racist?
FDR a racist? I don't understand what that has to do with the topic. But if your parents were allowed in during his presidency, I don't think the current asylum law had been passed yet.

Devious leaders lied to the American people and snuck in as many people as they could get away with, millions not properly vetted, in order to seize power. They claimed the border was safe, secure, and close while allowing human trafficking in our country to reach a level not seen since the Civil War. That is a grave sin. Over 65,000 missing children have been rescued, many of them were sold into sexual slavery. Many of those still alive may not ever recover. What we can do is rescue the rest of the children, deport the violent criminals and terrorists, and re-establish the LEGAL systems that were put into law. I think we should take in as many immigrants who love America as we can, but LEGALLY. We should not show hospitality to the terrorists and criminals and others who seek the destruction of others. Give them food and clothing, but shake the dust from our shoes and send them on their way.
This looks like propaganda to me. We need to guard against letting lies misguide our love.

It was propaganda, the border was not safe, not secure, and not closed. Those lies cost a lot of suffering and many lives.

Arrested, deported, and never allowed to return.

What do you mean?
When someone says something bad about others without any proof; it's wrong to entertain it because I wouldn't want people to do that to me.

I think this is a GREAT change.
It might be - if the majority of the board hadn't been appointed by the current AG, which would call into question their objectivity.
