The Fifth Circuit Appeals court has ruled that the Biden regime cannot ignore federal law regarding illegal immigrants who have committed crimes.
This from 100percentfedup.com.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas
According to federal law, authorities must arrest, detain, and remove criminal aliens convicted of crimes, and aliens who have been ordered to be deported.
The Epoch Times reports that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, one of the plaintiffs in the case, said:
Biden tried to throw out immigration law, saying DHS didn’t have to detain criminal illegals.
The Fifth Circuit Appeals Panel that ruled in favor of upholding the law consisted of three Republican-appointed judges. Judges Edith Jones is a Reagan appointee; Edith Clement is a George W. Bush appointee; and Kurt Engelhardt is a Trump appointee.
Their decision is a sharp departure from the careless approach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has taken toward illegal immigration.
Mayorkas, has been lenient on taking action against aliens, telling immigration agents:
[T]hey should not rely on the fact of conviction … alone.
And when recently asked about the border crisis he said:
I think that we are doing a good job.
Secretary Mayorkas on the border crisis:
“I think that we are doing a good job.”
He’s not serious, right?

Both are incorrect responses. Leniency is part of the reason behind the crisis at the border and Homeland Security is no longer a properly functioning element of the U.S. government. Actually, the entire government is no longer functioning properly.
Open borders have been a problem issue since Joe Biden was installed.
And while it is likely that the Obiden regime will appeal the decision, it is being hailed as a win for the rule of law across social media platforms.
The memo's restrictions placed on ICE officers in questioning, arresting, detaining, & removing aliens from the US have been lifted; the INA means what Congress intended, again. A victory for the rule of law. https://t.co/VlMozs5Hld @CIS_org

Effectively responding to this illegitimate cabal demands continuous legal work. And it is this string of constant small steps that must be performed. Not always is conservatism successful but often enough for We the People to know the effort expended is making a sizeable difference.
Like a delinquent child, the Obiden Regime is continuously breaking the law with their initiatives. Fortunately, conservatism is responding. The real trouble will commence when The Regime ceases to comply with the Courts’ decisions.
May God and our hard work save America from the Obiden transformation.
