Supreme Court rejects Trump plea to enforce asylum ban

The court's order Friday leaves in place lower court rulings that blocked President Donald Trump's proclamation in November automatically denying asylum to people who enter the country from Mexico without going through official border crossings.

Trump said he was acting in response to caravans of migrants making their way to the border.

The administration had also complained that the nationwide order preventing the policy from taking effect was too broad.

But Chief Justice John Roberts and the court's four more liberal justices rejected the administration's suggestion for narrowing it.

Damn, Trump shouldn’t be so sure the Supreme Court will take up the DACA case either.

with all the shit Trump is doing to our institutions, im pretty sure scotus will be on our side even if we make it to the docket.

chief justice dont like the president..

they aint gonna touch us.

If CJ dont end DACA

CJ Roberts will be impeached

If thats the outcome, we are doomed because you better hope 2021 comes tomorrow with super democrats majority

It's a completely different case/argument than DACA so I'm not sure it has any bearing on what Supreme Court will do with our issue.

Meanwhile.... Bader Ginsburg has gotten cancerous nodules removed from one of her lungs.

i remember a couple of weeks ago CJ Roberts said that Trump is fucking up our institutions.

i got a feeling that he will side 5-4 with liberals on issues like this. i think he dont like the Prez.

@GaryGrumbach
NBC News has learned Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg voted FROM HER HOSPITAL BED to refuse to let the government enforce Pres. Trump's proposed restriction on asylum. The court voted 5-4 to leave a lower court ruling in place that blocks enforcement of the crackdown. @PeteWilliamsNBC
