Texas, DOJ Sign Joint Decree Declaring Biden's Prior "Backdoor Amnesty" to be Illegal and Void

You of course know of the Democrats' favorite strategy of sue-and-settle, whereby a friendly third party is invited to sue the Democrat government. The Democrat government gives up the case and agrees to a "consent decree" resolving the issue -- and this resolution has the force of law, despite no legislature having ever voted for it.

Well, two can play at that game. Steven Miller's organization America First Legal joined with Texas to sue the DOJ over a Biden-era policy allowing immigration judges to put immigration cases on "administrative pause," forever. Biden allowed judges who would otherwise be required to deport illegal aliens to instead "pause" the case against them, effectively granting them amnesty (and even the "right to work").

Technically, they're still illegal aliens in the middle of deportation proceedings but the reality is that those proceedings are now "paused," forever. So every illegal alien getting his deportation "paused" is effectively granted backdoor amnesty that Congress never even contemplated, let alone voted to make law.

Texas and Steven Miller sued the DOJ over this blatant end-run around the actual law of the land and the DOJ said "Fair" and signed a consent decree admitting this was always illegal and now is forbidden.

Judge blocks Biden-era immigration rule hours after Texas AG and Stephen Miller's group sued DOJ



On Monday, Ken Paxton's office asked the judge to block the rule, a request the federal agency then agreed with. The suit echoes a similar move in 2025 that killed a 24-year-old state tuition law.


A federal judge in Texas blocked a Biden administration rule on Monday that allowed immigration judges to indefinitely close a deportation case against immigrants on the same day Texas sued to stop the rule.

The rule, which was adopted in 2024, allowed immigration judges to close a deportation case after hearing arguments from the federal government and the immigrant in deportation proceedings, especially if the person could qualify for a benefit that allows them to stay in the country legally.

But on Monday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit in the Northern District of Texas in Wichita Falls to block the rule with U.S. Judge Reed O'Connor, who was appointed by former President George W. Bush.

The lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice was also co-filed by America First Legal Foundation, an organization founded by Stephen Miller, a senior adviser to President Trump who has focused on ways to limit both legal and illegal immigration to the country. America First Legal Foundation also previously filed various lawsuits representing Paxton against the Biden administration's immigration policies, which helped derail President Biden's immigration agenda in his lone term.

In this latest complaint, Paxton's office said in the 43-page lawsuit that the Biden-era rule "effectively grant(s) indefinite amnesty to aliens illegally present in this country."

Lawsuits usually take several months to years to settle, but in this case O'Connor ruled late on Monday in favor of Texas after the Department of Justice filed its response saying it agreed with Paxton's office.

Before this lawless action by Biden, 130,000 cases were paused. After Biden gave his leftwing immigration judges permission to dole out personalized amnesty, the number of "paused" cases "skyrocketed" (as the judgment says) to 1.08 million. And then, a year later, it doubled again to 2.2 million.

5 "Considering that almost everything done to secure the border during Trump’s presidency has been executive action that can be reversed, and Democrats are becoming the party of open borders & no immigration enforcement, we may see another border crisis if Dems take back the WH in 2028. The migrants themselves say they are waiting for Trump to be gone."

See this, is how you frame the threat of Democrats to people. There's no need for the "Democrats will take over destroy the republic" demoralization crap. Unless you secretly want things to be destroyed . . .

And, they'd likely have more overall support and approval than the inevitable parties would try to negate their influence.

11 I think the ‘pause’ rule was even worse than it looked. Which cases do you think were paused? I’ll bet anything it was the dead-bang losers for the illegal. Lefty judges knew they couldn’t rule that this criminal illegal with three rape convictions could stay in the country, so they put the case on pause.

28 I believe the whole trick of consent decrees is that you have to get them reversed by the same judge, or at least the same district court. So in Trump I there was some dumb decree about illegals who were minors that Clinton had agreed to in a CA district, and from the early 1980s until earlier this decade a consent decree in NJ stopped Republicans NATIONWIDE having any kind of surveillance at polling places.

And the federal courts in TX are very, very right leaning. It and states like it are a rare example of the blue slip policy working in our favor.

Well at a certain point people have to enforce laws themselves if no one else will. For example, an illegal immigrant has literally no rights whatsoever. There are animals that are protected species by law who have more rights.

People in a previous thread noted that the 14th Amendment might not have been constitutionally ratified. Well, the Radical Republicans just did it and no one stopped them. Doomer conservatives love to say this about the left, but it can work both ways. The Sons of Liberty weren't worried about legal niceties before they tarred and feathered people or even burned a revenue cutter.

But more importantly, what's the point of going over it. Just say that Democrats are evil, talk about the evils they've done and intend to continue doing, and act/advise accordingly. What's the point of the hand-wringing?

I left law school after one year so I'm not qualified to answer, but I think not automatically. But the government can file to unpause them.

Basically our legal system is designed to give lawyers more work, so when more legal filings are plausible, they are probably required.

Waiting for the ruling - but I will repeat, on the record, how I think this will go, which I have said from the start:

My prediction is that SCOTUS will find that there is nothing in the Constitution mandating birthright citizenship; BUT that it is the power and the duty of Congress to clarify and define this. They will hold that the Executive does not have the constitutional authority to act on his own, even when Congress fails to act.

86 The fact of Democrats reopening the floodgates of illegal immigration in 29, if they should win, “ may” be enough to secure the win for Vance or Rubio. I believe there are a sizeable number of closeted Dems on this issue. Lots of people are sick of illegals infesting the place.

My prediction is that SCOTUS will find that there is nothing in the Constitution mandating birthright citizenship; BUT that it is the power and the duty of Congress to clarify and define this. They will hold that the Executive does not have the constitutional authority to act on his own, even when Congress fails to act.

That's good to hear! Maybe a few of them will even try getting out and asking around themselves instead of letting the idiot talking heads in the MSM tell them what to think.

102 I saw Trump was asked by reporters about the reflection pool. Trump said they have the thugs recorded on camera, six or seven of them. And if they go to court and found guilty the sentence will be 10 years in jail. No time off for good behavior. They will have to serve the 10 years. That law is on the books. I guess the thugs thought if they were caught it would just be a slap on the wrist. It's what they get for being stupid.

It's common practice in Europe. If it's increasing here, it's likely to screen candidates on attributes that are illegal without saying it (age, race, sex, etc.), or to make sure that the person on a video camera is the candidate.

GOD I hope this happens. Those people get dressed up for a kid's birthday party and whoop and goof around like they're TP-ing Principal Skinner's car. They think it's a hilarious prank to cost the taxpayers $16million to drain the pool and do it all over again, after which we'll probably have to install cameras, guards, and fences all around what should be an area that's free and open for all to enjoy instead of looking like the fucking Berlin Wall.

If/when that happens then the next democrat president will make bidens border madness look like a child's tea party. We will most likely get 10-15 million a year crossing the southern border under the next democrat president.
