Fed. Judge Rules He Can Block Deportation Of Iraqi Illegal Immigrants

DC: A Detroit federal judge ruled Tuesday that the government cannot deport nearly 200 illegal immigrants from Iraq, due to concerns that they could be persecuted if returned to their home country.

U.S. District Judge Mark Goldsmith found that he had the legal authority to stay the deportations indefinitely while the detained Iraqis appeal their cases in federal court.

In his ruling, Goldsmith said that repatriating the Iraqis would expose them to “substantiated risk of death, torture, or other grave persecution before their legal claims can be tested in a court,” reports Reuters.

  1. If the illegal immigrant Iraqis supported ISIS, I suspect they would experience persecution if returned to Iraq.
    However, if they supported ISIS they should not be allowed in the US. Deport them.

  2. Time for Sessions’ DoJ to begin slapping down these rogue Lefty justices who aspire to appointing themselves Acting Co-POTUS.

    Lots of mechanisms both judicial, procedural and political to do so.

    For starters, every judge should have to pass a full Fed Security Clearance. If they fail–and 50-70% will– they’re automatically disqualified from national policy cases.

  3. This is another judge who had to reach in side his anus to find he can over rule any POTUS whenever he wants. He should be immediately helped to find another occupation or prison cell.

  4. Impeach the POS ‘judge’ and remove him from the bench.

    “They could be persecuted . . .” – how is this our problem? I don’t care if they are killed.

    Not our problem.

  5. I’ll bet the judge has a nice not constitutionally required office he could have taken away. I’m sorry, chamber. And move an Iraqi family in there just for the fun of it all.

  6. Tony R, probably illegals due to overstaying whatever cockamamie temporary visa which Obama gave them, and which Obama sought to make permanent by ignoring the expiration dates.

  7. WHY AREN’T JUDGES required to PROVE that such things will happen to illegals if they return? What evidence is there? The word of Akhmed?
    Such bullshit.

    Deport them to some other Arab country then, not Iraq. Anyway, they need to go, they broke our laws and excuse-making after the fact is irrelevant.
