    mulling use of a 1952 law that allows access to the American asylum system to be restricted.

    Someday givessomefucks will learn the difference between a law and executive order. Today is not this day though.

      Someday we won’t have to see his “I totes don’t want Trump to be re-elected wink wink I’m just trying my hardest to depress Democratic voter turnout!” but I guess it’s not this day either.

        The same regulation was used by the Trump administration to ban immigration and travel from several predominantly Muslim countries and to bar migrants from asylum if they were apprehended crossing into the US illegally, provoking accusations of racism.

        He’s doing exactly what Trump did for the Muslim ban but it’s okay now?

        Who is Biden doing this for? Not his base and not for republicans
