The 5th Circuit Delivers a Shockingly Ruthless Rebuke of Joe Biden's Lawlessness

[Eupher]

Gotta read at least the article and the first couple pages of the 5th Circuit's ruling (117 pages at the link).

Absolutely priceless. 

#SharterJoe gets pwned. Again.

You may recall some weeks ago when RedState reported on the Biden administration moving to reinstate Donald Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy.

Upon taking office, Joe Biden pulled out his pen and phone and nixed the measure that had stemmed the tide of unqualified asylum applicants and trafficking of children. Soon after, with the Obama-era policy of releasing illegal immigrants into the interior with a court date back in place, the current surge at the border began. That surge has continued, reaching record levels over 2021.

Eventually, the courts got involved after several states sued, leading to an order to reinstate the “Remain in Mexico” policy. Last month, the Biden administration made the move to follow that order, including securing a deal with Mexico, whose president had opposed ending the program in the first place. Of course, that move wasn’t willingly, as the government sought to appeal the decision.

Now, the 5th Circuit has slapped down that attempt at an appeal, and the decision is absolutely savage. That’s not hyperbole. Read every word of this. It’s one of the most direct condemnations from a court I’ve ever seen of a president.

From the 5th Circuit ruling (as quoted in the article):

DHS’s proposed approach is as unlawful as it is illogical. Under Supreme Court and Fifth Circuit precedent, this case is nowhere near moot. And in any event, the vacatur DHS requests is an equitable remedy, which is unavabile [sic] to parties with unclean hands. The Government’s litigation tactics disqualify it from such equitable relief.

Translating the legalese into plain English, the court told LIEden's DHS that their actions and tactics have been so unlawful and dishonest that they are the basis for denying their motion.

Wonder why the DUmmies don’t talk about kids in cages any more?  As a matter of fact they were right pissy that Cruz had the gall to call them that right to Mayorkas face. How dare he?!
