Trump admin plans to block asylum seekers from U.S. by citing risk of COVID-19

[Swordsmyth]

The Trump administration has proposed a new rule that would allow it to deny asylum to immigrants who are deemed a public health risk.

The soon-to-be published rule would let the Department of Homeland Security and Department of Justice to block immigrants from seeking asylum in the U.S. based on "potential international threats from the spread of pandemics," according to a notice announcing it Wednesday.

The rule would apply to immigrants seeking asylum and those seeking "withholding of removal" — a protected immigration status for those who have shown they may well face danger if returned to their home countries.

The determination of whether migrants pose a public health risk would be made at the "credible fear" screening — essentially the first interview of the application process to determine an immigrant has a credible fear of returning to their home country — not in immigration court.

POTUS is planning to consider the possibility that he will perhaps examine proposing a rule?



May as well mark that a done deal!

Yep, he does consider proposing doing a lot of things that never happen. You are correct.

What about all the stuff he does accomplish? Do you think haters help him move the overton window? Do you think not supporting him helps promote those these things?

Trump blew any credibility he had with me a looooong time ago, as if that wasn't obvious to anyone on RPF by now.

No you have. You have every time you have claimed he isnt getting things done that werent politically possible before. Trump is moving the overton window you are just a cry baby.

[AngryCanadian]

According to Joe Biden and Democrats they want to undo that as well if elected.
Go figure.

Right, right. Carry on with your personal delusion that the Overton Window is not being moved squarely into communism. Things that weren't politically possible before? Indeed, that is true. The next UBI check will be on the way soon.

Trump: I want to scrap all H1B visas
10-02-2018

US approves more H-1B visas this year
Oct 14, 2019

• US has approved a higher number of H-1B applications this year
• 3.89 lakh applications were approved for the fiscal 2019, up from last year's 3.35 lakh
• In past years, more than 70% of the aggregate H-1B visa applications for new jobs and visa extensions given to those born in India

MUMBAI: The US has approved a higher number of H-1B applications (both for initial visas and visa extensions for continued employment) this year, showing that the demand for these work visas continues unabated. This is a relief to Indians, who are the dominant holders of H-1B visas, especially after processing regulations got more stringent post-2015 .

Trump reiterates claim that he wants more legal immigration

Trump nominates Indian American to replace Kavanaugh
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is nominating administration official Neomi Rao to fill the appeals court seat previously held by Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Trump’s announcement came on Nov. 13 during the White House’s celebration of Diwali, the Hindu festival of light. Rao, who is Indian American, was present at the event. Trump said he was nominating Rao for the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit — sometimes referred to as the nation’s second-highest court.

Its hard to move political consensus with haters who arent satisfied with anything he does.

The Democrats have always been pretty predictable. They don't bother trying to hide their true intentions anymore.

Don't make me post his On the Record again (I am doing an update). Little plastic see-through bones here and there seem to keep the duopoly very alive and well. I am not that easily manipulated. In fact, I can't be manipulated at all. But, enjoy the freak show.

Btw, nikcers, you and some others around here are definitely going to go down in history one day; some RPF members and "republicans" in general who actually supported a NY LIB - not once, but TWICE.

Bull$#@! you keep saying this but my posts on here clearly show i didnt support Trump until he got elected and after he did several things that wouldnt of happened with a democrat. He didnt get the Tax cuts to be permanent but thats because the liberals hacked the house election. He got people out of jail and helped get them working again. Im sure you would rather of had Clinton or would rather have Biden but i would rather have conservative judges than liberal judges. The stimulus checks Trump did were basically tax cuts that were paid for with the record high economy pre covid that had everyone paying more in taxes because they made more.

Devil and the others know exactly what they are doing, they are trying to help keep Trump from doing things and then they turn around and call him a liar when it works.
It's like Tulsi attacking Trump about the Syria withdrawal.

Its just soft support for the democrat candidate. It would be one thing if it was the Republican primaries and we had someone like Rand Paul running.

It's similar with me, I was distrustful of Trump and didn't vote for him last time but he exceeded my expectations and is the best POTUS since Coolidge.

It's funny how they give Trump "credit" for bad things he said while he was doing business in NYC and Hollywood but they don't give him any credit for good things he says while in office that he is prevented from doing or just hasn't done yet.

I see you cut off the sarcasm tag to try and lie about my position.

Or do you really support corporate fascism forcing vaccines on us?

Swordy, you know full well that I do not support Fascism / forced vaccination. You are just trying to attempt another weak smear ;-)

$1.6 BILLION to Novovax… what do ya think of that? Fauci, Slaoui, and Moderna weren't enough for CIC?

Ok, I'll be fair.

I do not condone government involvement in any business. Likewise, I do not condone business involvement in government either. When these things happen, Fascism results.

Which is why CIC should not be funding public/private ventures.

Government has NO business in healthcare.

But, I remember Trump speaking about the "republican" version of healthcare would be better than Obama's Romney-Care, and, Medicare For All Nancy Get It Done!

This is Warp Speed beyond what Obamacare was.

You are the one who tried to smear me by cutting off the sarcasm tag, I gave you the option of admitting that deceit or of possibly understanding it was sarcasm and opposing a government ban on corporate enforced vaccination, I didn't say which for sure.
I see you have decided to admit to cutting the sarcasm tag to deceive.

Like I said, I do not condone government bans on anything, even if you do. What I object to is this administration passing out tax payer money for public/private Fascist ventures, as I noted before.

Had Trump not started Operation Warp Speed, and not hired Slaoui (Gate's stooge) to head it, gave billions to Moderna and Novovax, we most probably would not even be at this juncture.

The first step in solving a problem is admitting that there is one. The second step is taking responsibility. Then the third step would be easy.

Btw, Trump is a NY LIB, just for your FYI.

We would be exactly where we are, I don't like them getting government money bu that is a separate subject and not the topic of this thread.

So you are telling me that if Trump/Administration/Fed did not do any of those things, we would still be exactly where we are?

This thread talks about bans [blocks], and covid-19, but if you want to take it elsewhere just post your response in an appropriate thread.

Yes, they would get the money and either develop a vaccine or fail either way.

You support government "help me save me" restrictions, at the expense of rightful private property owners, therefore you cannot argue any position with me honestly.
