  1. Title 42 suspended title 8 laws and authority use to deter and penalize illegal border crossing. The Right was using it to undermine legal asylum under 8 US code 1158. It also suspended 8 US code 1325; the misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty for crossing the border illegally. And 8 US code 1326; stiffer penalties for crossing the border after deportation That left out any legal penalty or deterrent for those crossing and stopped legal asylum, with few exceptions under title 42. Makes it difficult to enforce immigration laws when Republicans are fighting in court to undermine our legal enforcement. With title 42 suspending enforcement many immigrants re-crossed multiple times causing apprehension numbers to be inflated. The current rate of multiple returns was about 40% of border crossers.

  2. Biden and Mayokis constitutional duty is to carry out laws passed by congress that includes asylum in our INA laws. The Right do not like our asylum laws becasaue they feel they are a loophole. So starting under Trump they have unilateraly undermined legal asylum through several policies tha were in violation of the law. Those policies were reversed by our courts after congressinal hearings and not by impeaching Trump for violating those laws. Trumps failed policies caused border crossing to double in 2019 to a record level, yet no impeachment for allowing that to happen under his policies that were in violation of the law. So what is it that Biden actually did that was in violation of the constitution and was not a violation of the constitution under Ttrump?

  3.  @bloodycreepy  8 USC 1158 of our INA laws try reading it.

  4.  @ClockworkGearhead  You proved he was correct. That there is nothing in the constitution that says immigrants can't enter the country.

  6. We had a 11 year decline in southern border crossing to the lowest point in 50 years prior to Trump and his polices. By 2019 Trumps policies doubled the number of people crossing the southern border to 977,000. He only saw a reduction for the first 9 months of 2020 due to covid, before it went back to a 20 year monthly high in October of 2020. It has remained a 20 year high and increasing ever since under Trumps failed policies and Title 42. Title 42 suspended title 8 laws and authority use to deter and penalize illegal border crossing.

  7.  @ClockworkGearhead Yes but your missing the part of the constitution that allows immigrants to come here cross our borders at any point and request asylum without penalty. That has been a law and international treaty for over 40 years that is protected under our constution, and the Right under Trump have violated that law multiple times. So you don't know wtf your talking about and like the rest of the Right wing base you are talking out your ars, because you don't bother to learn anything you use to your feelings like the rest of the cluless Right wing base.

  8.  @bloodycreepy  Biden did by going back to following our laws that were working before Trumps failed policies. We had a 11 year decline in southern border crossing to the lowest point in 50 years prior to Trump and his polices. By 2019 Trumps policies doubled the number of people crossing the southern border to 977,000.

  9.  @bloodycreepy  Asylum seekers are not required to use a port of entry, they can cross at any point and make the request without penalty. That has been US law and international treaty for over 40 years. You call it an open border policy. Trumps policy that was in violation of US immigration law and charge asylum seekers with a crime. If they are sneaking to trying and avoid detection, then by that definition they are not asylum seekes. Learn the difference and our learn our immigration laws, you do not know them stop trying to act informed.

  10. §1158. Asylum (a) Authority to apply for asylum (1) In general Any alien who is physically present in the United States or who arrives in the United States (whether or not at a designated port of arrival and including an alien who is brought to the United States after having been interdicted in international or United States waters), irrespective of such alien's status, may apply for asylum in accordance with this section or, where applicable, section 1225(b) of this title..

  11. Due to false claims of voter fraud, asylee’s not showing up for court, criminal activity, and just right wing claims used to breed hate. The Right has unilaterally decided to undermine legal asylum. And have dubbed it as an open border policy and fed that buzz word to a right wing base who have no understanding of immigration laws. Trumps zero tolerance policy to separate children, Remain in Mexico, Title 42. All attempts to stop legal asylum under US laws that have been in place for over 40 years. This attempt have pushed immigrants away from ports of entry to crossing between. Cartels and traffickers have now taken advantage of that and overwhelmed border patrol. Open borders did not cause this crisis. Yet now using this hate filled rhetoric to trigger a base that is now openly full of hate on immigrants and this hate is now fed by GOP governors feeding off of that for votes from GOP supporters who immoral views support separating children as a deterrent, use of lethal force, lying to immigrants to ship them to dem cities to stick it to libs, incarceration, placing them in the hands of traffickers. All because of immigrants who may or may not have violated a misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty. And the Right are doing nothing to help fix the problem. Trumps immoral policies were violating US law by snatching children from legal asylum seeks as a deterrent. Harris was never appointed as border czar. There are no 85000 missing children and no they cannot use their drivers license to vote. The Right does nothing but lie.

  13. "Congress’s determination that place of entry not be disqualifying to an application for asylum is consistent with the treaty obligations underlying §1158’s asylum provisions. Congress enacted the Refugee Act of 1980, including 8 U.S.C. §1158, “to bring United States refugee law into conformance with the 1967 United Nations Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees, 19 U.S.T. 6223, T.I.A.S. No. 6577, to which the United States acceded in 1968.” Because the Protocol is not “self-executing,” it “does not have the force of law in American courts.” Khan v. Holder, 584 F.3d 773, 783 (9th Cir. 2009). Nonetheless, it provides “a useful guide in determining congressional intent in enacting the Refugee Act.” Id.(citation omitted); see also Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. at 436-37.Of particular relevance here, Article 31of the Protocol provides: The Contracting States shall not impose penalties, on account of their illegal entry or presence, on refugees who, coming directly from a territory where their life or freedom was threatened in the sense of [A]rticle 1, enter or are present in their territory without authorization, provided they present themselves without delay to the authorities and show good cause for their illegal entry or presence.19 U.S.T. at 6275 (emphasis added).Considering the text and structure of the statute, as well as the interpretive guide of the U.N. Protocol, reveals Congress’s unambiguous intent. The failure to comply with entry requirements such as arriving at a designated port of entry should bear little, if any, weight in the asylum process. The Rule reaches the opposite result by adopting a categorical bar based solely “[a]n alien present in the United States who has not been admitted or who arrives in the United States (whether or not at a designated port of arrival and including an alien who is brought to the United States after having been interdicted in international or United States waters) shall be deemed for purposes of this chapter an applicant for admission.” Inadmissible aliens are generally placed in full removal proceedings"
