Appeals Court Overrules Activist Leftwing Minnesota Judges, Declares That Illegal Aliens Can Be Held Indefinitely Without Bond While Waiting for Their Deportation

This is important because if you want to deport someone -- put them on a plane -- you need to have physical custody of their bodies, and activist judges keep ruling that after ICE captures an illegal alien, he must be allowed to go free. He'll just show up for his actual deportation, right?

No, of course not. He will disappear "into the shadows," as Jeb Bush might say.

But that's what these activist, lawless Democrat judges want -- a soft judicial repeal of the power to deport. They can't just say "we're overruling Congress" -- Congress has the power to make laws about immigration and naturalization, of course -- so instead they just spam out fake requirement after fake requirement to make it effectively impossible to deport anyone.

In short -- they want to codify Biden's lawless executive decision to open the borders and guarantee all comers a permanent residency in America into "law" without having to go through the bother of actually changing the law.

The Eighth Circuit is the second appeals court to tell lowly court judges they do not have the power to overrule both Congress and the President.

Appeals court lets Trump administration hold many immigration detainees without bond
A panel of appeals court judges handed the Trump administration a major legal victory on Wednesday in its quest to detain large swaths of immigrants living in the country illegally, saying that people who entered the United States without inspection and admission can be detained without bond.
The 2-1 decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit marks the second time that a federal appellate court has sided with the administration on the issue, even as hundreds of lower court judges across the country have taken the opposite view. The conservative Fifth Circuit issued a similar ruling earlier this year.
Wednesday's ruling could impact more than 1,000 immigration detention cases in Minnesota alone, according to a source in the U.S. Attorney's office in that state. The Eighth Circuit also oversees six other states stretching from North Dakota to Arkansas.
The case involved a man named Joaquin Herrera Avila, a citizen of Mexico who was apprehended by the Department of Homeland Security in Minneapolis last August. DHS detained him without bond and brought removal proceedings against him.
His lawyers filed a petition of habeas corpus seeking his release, and the U.S. District Court in Minnesota granted the request. Wednesday's decision reversed the lower court's ruling.
The majority opinion was drafted by Judge Bobby Shepherd, a George W. Bush appointee, and joined by Judge L. Steven Grasz, a Trump appointee. Judge Ralph R. Erickson, who was appointed during President Trump's first term, dissented.
"Except for a single DUI, for nearly 20 years, Joaquin Herrera Avila had been living a law-abiding life in the United States," Erickson wrote. "For the past 29 years, Avila would have been entitled to a bond hearing during his removal proceedings. The court now holds that Avila--and millions of others--are subject to mandatory detention."
...
But the Trump administration has argued that anyone who entered the U.S. illegally is subject to mandatory deportation, unless immigration authorities grant them parole on humanitarian or public interest grounds.
Last fall, a Justice Department-run immigration court made a sweeping determination that the government could essentially detain a large swath of immigrants indefinitely while their removal proceedings are pending.
Since then, federal courts across the United States have been crushed by a tidal wave of cases filed by immigrants challenging their detention. In most cases, U.S. District Courts have sided with the immigrants and ruled against the government. According to a tally from Politico, more than 400 judges have ruled against the government in more than 5,000 cases.

And that's not all. The Supreme Court appears inclined to side with the Administration on the government's right to turn away "asylum" seekers at the border.

The majority of Supreme Court justices appeared to be sympathetic to the idea that the Trump administration should be able to turn away asylum seekers at the US-Mexico border. If the court rules in favor of the administration, the government will be able to revive a policy used during Trump's first term, where those seeking asylum were stopped at the border from setting foot in the US.
Federal law dictates that those who arrive in the US and are "physically present in the United States" or "arrive in the United States" can apply for asylum. The issue is whether noncitizens merely have to show up to the border to request asylum or if they have to cross the border fully before applying.
The majority of justices appeared to be sympathetic to the Trump administration in the case, per the New York Times. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justice Amy Coney Barrett suggested that "arrives in" means that someone has fully crossed the border.
"'Arriving" sounds more 'in the process of.' 'Arrives in' sounds more like 'you've reached your destination,'" Justice Barrett said in the hearing. "If it's not crossing the physical border, what is the magic thing?" Former President Barak Obama implemented the policy where some seeking asylum would be turned around at the border, which was expanded by Trump. However, that policy was rescinded under the Biden administration.
Biden rejected Trump's border security measures and allowed tens of millions of illegal immigrants to cross into the United States, be paroled, and wait for immigration hearings that were often scheduled five or more years down the road. At one point during his term in office, Biden dismissed a bunch of immigration cases, leaving migrants in a legal limbo with neither legal status nor deporation orders.
The Trump administration has urged the justices to allow the policy to be reinstated. Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh suggested that the debate about where a migrant is at when they request asylum is "very artificial." Two of the liberal justices, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, had tougher questions for the administration in the case. They were the only justices who appeared sympathetic to allowing the full embrace of asylum claims at the border.

Look, we don't give thanks enough. Trump has had some bumps and oopsies this term, but he's been great 96% of the time. 96% will get you an A anywhere. An A+, really, with the curve.

Speaking of Minnesota.....this ruling and the JD Vance led fraud project is going to have an interesting result. The Somalis of Minneapolis are going to do the big Exodus to more fertile grounds. It will be interesting to see where that is. I'm going to guess San Diego area, which already has about 15k Somalis on the books. The only fly in the ointment is that there is a cocentration of uncovering fraud in California as well. Right now they are concentrating on the false Hospice entities. But, it will expand, and the GOP leading Governor candidate is making that a staple of his campaign.

So, maybe a state that isn't getting much attention, but is firmly Blue and ripe for fraud. Either way, I predict a mass emigration of Somalis out of Minnesota in short order.

True, but I don't think that's the real reason the leftist swine vehemently opposed detention without bond.

The real reason was because illegals staring at months if not years in what is effectively prison will be much more likely to sign waivers and go back home voluntarily.

Big win.

I want to save aliens from living in the evil, capitalistic hellhole that is fascist America where police are given green lights to murder brown people in the street for sport. They need to go back to their nations with socialist single payer healthcare to live freer lives than they can get in this shithole of a nation.

Why do you want aliens to be subjected to singularly bad racism in America?

60 Confess have not reviewed the actual asylum law (silly, actually considering the law itself in, well, considering a law), but the entire history of the thing was turned on its head in recent years. Started under Obama, though, inexplicably, there was some push-back (as noted in the post).

Those of a certain age will recall asylum as it was originally intended and implemented.

Individuals, persecuted for their beliefs, given sanctuary. Often at a US Embassy, to start, later to be negotiated out in some sort of swap. This was the Cold War norm, usually with Soviet bloc countries, and it was exactly why the law was enacted.

Literally millions of random people showing up at the border, obviously economic migrants (= zero basis for admission or status under the actual law), just ushered in, and the "asylum" process and meaning completely thrown out. Odd, but one of the most infuriating and depressing things (of the non-stop tsunami of such) in recent years. Probably because those who know recognize what a perversion of a very noble American policy it all is.

64 Look, we don't give thanks enough. Trump has had some bumps and oopsies this term, but he's been great 96% of the time. 96% will get you an A anywhere. An A+, really, with the curve.

Nothing Trump has done has been particularly radical or even really innovative.

He's just doing the things politicians have been saying they would do since the end of the cold war.

One way to look at it is that every right leaning pol should be working the same way but honestly Trump hasn't been even particularly rightwing - you can find speeches by Clinton, Sanders, Schumer, and others about the problems illegals cause and the need for vote security.

So, imagine if every elected pol, left or right, put America first? Hell, remember when given a choice between even their supposed holy grail of nationalized healthcare or illegals the modern left has consistently choosen illegals.

A couple of points expanding this:

A few years ago a German family sought asylum. The German government wouldn't let home school and wanted to indoctrinate them. This is a clear asylum case. Biden sent them back.

But such an offense is a “who cares” offense if you are a foreign national illegally present in the United States. If you are a citizen, God help you. It’s a wonder police haven’t been given the power to summarily execute drunk drivers, such is the severity of the offense as we have all been told.

Also, the FNM and these same people argued Shrub's DUI was a serious criminal offense. True, one can argue being president is a bigger deal then being let into the country but the argument is still DUI is a serious thing.

Posted by: weft cut-loop at March 27, 2026 03:50 PM (diia5)

92 Nation is the guy's name? Bizarre story -
------------------------------
An ex-security staffer for President Joe Biden who posed for pics with former VP Kamala Harris in front of a presidential jet was arrested for a chilling murder in San Francisco.

Nation Wood, 25, was arrested Wednesday, just 24 hours after he allegedly shot and killed Samantha Emge, 22, a 2025 graduate of San Francisco State University, at a home in San Francisco’s Sunset District.

Wood identified himself as a part-time security staffer for Biden’s White House Secret Service team starting in November 2023 on his LinkedIn profile.

He worked at the White House through July 2025, finishing out his term under President Donald Trump, according to his LinkedIn page that lists him as an “independent pre-event site security advisor.”

144 Joaquin Herrera Avila entered the US illegally in 2006. He did so again in 2016. It's easy to see such acts as illegal in their own right, because they are. But, attached to each of these illegal entries are, also, other violations of the law. No VISA, no passport, no border crossing card, no permit. So, international travel without a passport in another violation of the law.

No DUI is necessary for a removal of a non-authorized party. It should be that simple. I'm curious whether those individuals who go through the legal process of immigration have the ability to file civil litigation against anyone entering illegally, and being allowed to stay....based on a violation of the Equal Protection Laws.

This way he gets to say “see I’m impartial and I rule for both sides”. It’s like when Jon Stewart did 100 jokes, 1/100 would be at the expense of Democrats and he’d say he wasn’t partisan he makes fun of both sides.

159 I suspect a lot of conservative groups feel in the same way the GOP did. Remember the key point in modern politics is when the Dems forced Newt and his chosen successor Livingstone out making way for Hastert - whom they knew AT THE TIME was a pedophile

Given a thorough investigation I suspect you'd find that a key moment in the fall of all of the old right leaning orgs was the Dems identifying one perv and leaning on him...

I'll bet this ties to the "600" raw FBI files found in the Clinton's residence at the White House. And no, it wasn't 600. Probably more like 6000. The 600 was just for public consumption once it leaked out, assuming that the public would go "well, it's only 600".

Gambling helps drive interest. But the fans are the customers because the reason the gamblers and the networks want sports is because it is the only thing on "TV" that actually gets real numbers. It is why most of the streamers are getting into it. NFL is the big dog, college football does well too.

177 The blue slip policy is not a time honored tradition in the US Senate. It came about due to the Southern Dem senators wanting to block desegregation judges and prosecutors in the South. It is not in the Senate's formal rules but rather is a Judiciary Cmte rule that has wavered back and forth over time depending on who was Judiciary Chair.

And formally, senatorial courtesy was NOT a veto by senators of a presidential pick but rather that they be consulted before the pick went before the Judiciary Committee so that they could develop questions, etc. for the nominee. Even less so for federal prosecutors. But, the segregation era warped the Senate by setting up the ridiculous filibuster rules, the blue slip policy, and a number of other methods to essentially protect senators from having to walk the plank by voting unlike their House counterparts.

As a result, the Senate has rotted. The House has become something that Joe Cannon would like or Thomas Reed but it at least votes and this last term went back to regular procedure except for the Homeland Security bill. I blame the GOP in the Senate for that debacle.
