A federal judge in Texas blocked the Biden administration from scrapping the Trump-era “Remain in Mexico” policy Thursday.
U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk issued a pause on the Biden administration’s decision to end the program, according to the judge’s order. The policy forces certain illegal immigrants to return to Mexico as they await court proceedings.
The Supreme Court ruled in June that the Biden administration can terminate the policy, which was formally lifted in August.
“As Secretary Mayorkas has said, MPP has endemic flaws, imposes unjustifiable human costs, and pulls resources and personnel away from other priority efforts to secure our border,” the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said at the time.
The Biden administration initially tried to end the policy on the president’s first day in office, but was quickly met lawsuits led by Republican states.
The decision comes as federal border authorities encounter overwhelming levels of illegal immigration, with a record more than 2.3 million migrants encountered in fiscal year 2022 and even more expected with the end of another Trump-era expulsion policy, Title 42, expected on Dec. 21.

The White House will just ignore this ruling. Laws do not apply to Sleepy (Zombie?) Joe.
These third worlders are being encouraged to flood our border thanks to numerous Non-government Organizations, and you can imagine where they get their funding. America as we knew it in the 20th century is over for good. No wonder births for white people are down, who would want to raise any children and expose them to what our once great nation has become.
