A three-judge panel at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Friday ruled that Trump can't just close asylum centers and send all asylum seekers back to their countries of origin. As the report notes:

"The ruling centers on a proclamation issued by Mr. Trump just hours after he returned to the White House in January, ordering the closure of the asylum system."

There are a lot of complexities to the ruling... First, it lifts a "pause" on a previous ruling, a pause that had allowed Trump to act for a brief period until this court could hear the case:

"U.S. border officials have relied on the order to summarily expel those entering the country illegally, without allowing them to request asylum. Mr. Trump justified the sweeping measure on the grounds that the country is facing an "invasion" of migrants.

The three-judge panel at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit lifted its administrative pause on a July ruling from a federal judge who found Mr. Trump's proclamation defied U.S. laws that require the federal government to hear the claims of migrants who want to apply for humanitarian protection out of fear that they could be harmed if deported.

That ruling by U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss struck down the Trump administration's asylum ban and would've required officials to stop enforcing it on a legal class comprised of migrants who are or will be in the U.S."

So, does this ruling allow the "strike down" to go into effect and stop Trump? Not exactly. They are "allowing" him to deport many of the people asking for a "form of asylum" that is covered by the UN Convention Against Torture.

"The panel allowed the Trump administration to continue using the president's proclamation to deny migrants access to the U.S. asylum system, noting that U.S. law permits, but does not require, the government to grant asylum to those who prove they could be persecuted because of their race, religion, politics or other factors.

But the panel also said Mr. Trump's proclamation could not be used to prevent migrants from applying for other forms of humanitarian protections that the U.S. is legally required to give to certain migrants fleeing persecution and torture. They're known as "withholding of removal" and protection under the United Nations Convention Against Torture. Those protections have a higher legal threshold than asylum, but unlike asylum, they are mandatory, not discretionary, and must be granted to those who meet the requirements."

So, yeah, it's all about definitions as defined by Trump or the UN or the court, and it has nothing to do with the fact that the federal constitution doesn't contain the word "immigration" and the fact that the feds aren't supposed to have anything to do with people moving to any of the states.

A reminder of the big Thursday into Friday story that confirms what we at MRCTV have been saying since 2016: The Clinton Campaign and DNC and people within the FBI and CIA and NSA worked to create the "Russian Collusion" narrative, and now, newly released documents spell it out, in what we are told by the Trump Admin are documents from the people involved.

nypost.com

As I noted Friday on Substack: the "intel annex" releases of old Obama-era docs show direct communications within the Admin to coordinate the “Russia collusion/interference” hoax and use it to cover-up the DNC leak (likely by Seth Rich). In those docs, you can see their use of Crowdstrike to provide cover – the company we often have cited for years as run by a then-member of the Atlantic Council (Dmitri Alperovich) , and which utilized ties to the Washington Post to get out its fake narrative about a “Russian Hack.” LINK!

You also can see their use of malleable tyrant-terms like “critical infrastructure” similar to their use of terms like “national security” – they will make them mean anything they want them to mean. Here is Mike Benz on it: LINK!

The UK govt is reviving a speech-monitoring and punishment system that it began during the COVID lockdowns. Now, as Jim Jordan has noted, it seems to be monitoring social media to target people upset about the government-pushed immigration explosion in Great Britain. Evidently, when the Empire can't be everywhere, it's players want people from everywhere to be moved to the remnants of the Empire — at taxpayer expense — and they want to use taxpayer cash to police critics of the practice.

As I mentioned on Liberty Conspiracy Friday night, Trump kept telling us that his unconstitutional Executive Branch impositions of tariffs were all about the US economy (as if his tariffs will do anything but harm it and suck money away from consumers), but this move shows us that he wants to use tariffs as a form of warfare, in favor of Israel. In fact, his tariff actions against India for dealing with Russia, and his threats about imposing new parallel tariffs on more nations that deal with Russian goods if Putin and Zelinsky don't come to a ceasefire? That, too, veers away from Trump's claim that he uses tariffs for economic reasons. His mind is all over the place. LINK!

Trump tariffs a stone in the shoe of 'made in USA' cowboy boots

President Trump's impending 30% tariffs on South African exports threaten the iconic "made in the USA" cowboy boot industry. Texas bootmakers rely on ostrich leather sourced exclusively from Oudtshoorn, South Africa, the world's "ostrich capital." Farmers fear the tariffs will negatively impact their business, potentially leading to shrinkage as costs are shared between exporters, importers, and consumers.
