Leftist immigration judge fired by Trump: "It was political"


An immigration judge hired by the Biden administration for her political views on immigration, abortion, the Palestinian cause, and LGBTQ+1MNO~P+FU was fired by President Donald Trump and said that it was only because "it was political." Her name is Kerry Doyle and she has a bone to pick with this administration.

Ya think?

Doyle, who worked in the liberal state of Massachusetts, was merely one of more than 20 leftist immigration judges fired in recent days without explanation because none is required. Of course, it's obvious why she and her Biden-appointed ilk are gone and that is due to their totally permissive stance on illegal border crossing that favor illegal aliens over Americans.

Doyle said she got an email last week from the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR, not to be confused with a Winnie the Pooh character). It said the agency had "determined that retaining" her was "not in the best interest of the agency." And certainly not in the best interest of legal immigrants who had gone through the system the correct and honest way and didn't depend on the government for everything.

The good news is that administrative judges like Doyle do not have the same protection from firing as federal judges, who are nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate to fill lifetime terms. So what Biden hath sown, Trump hath plucked.

Nevertheless, Doyle told WGBH in an interview that Trump’s decision will undermine faith in the nation’s immigration system. Naturally she would say that because she's directly affected by the decision.

"If you start making it political, it really does blow the system up and blow up people’s faith in the system," said Doyle, who previously helped lead a court challenge against Trump’s 2017 travel ban for people from multiple Muslim-majority countries. "None of us were there to drive a political agenda. We were there to do our jobs."

No Kelly; it was Biden's administration [because Biden was personally disinterested in making presidential decisions--he just wanted to be president] who made it political.

McConnell files cloture on more conservative judges



Before the echo of ripped paper dissipated from the halls of Congress, and dentures got back to the gums of where they belong; and before all the angry Democrats filed out of the impeachment trial of President Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) filed cloture on more conservative judges than Flintstones has children's vitamins.

At present count, there are 191 judges put in place by this administration, making the U.S.'s judiciary more conservative than ever before.

The judges included Andrew Lynn Brasher to be U.S. Circuit Judge for the Eleventh Circuit, Joshua M. Kindred to be U.S. District Judge for the District of Alaska, Matthew Thomas Schelp to be U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri, John Fitzgerald Kness to be U.S. District Judge for the Northern District of Illinois, and Philip M. Halpern to be U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York.

At present, the Senate is on track to confirm the 34th Circuit Court judge during Trump's presidency by next week and there are three more ready for floor action, which would give Trump about 20 percent of the Circuit Court seats in the country after just two years in office. At this rate, McConnell and Trump could leave few, if any, vacancies there for a potential Democratic president in 2021 and keep America from circling the bowl as the left would like to see.

Even more upsetting for Democrats, the GOP is also preparing to pull the trigger on the “nuclear option,” a move first put in place by former Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid. This would change Senate rules once again with a simple majority to allow much quicker confirmation of lower court judges in the coming months.

The Trump administration now has 128 District Court vacancies to fill. Under current rules, if any senator demands a delay, it can take a long time to get them appointed. But if Republicans do the Harry Reid nuclear option, Trump could likely fill most of the appointments over the next 20 months.

President Obama was only able to appoint 55 Circuit Court judges in all his 8 years of dividing the country. Trump and the Senate has already appointed 50 in three years, and those that were appointed are seated for life and are all young. 

Thank you Harry Reid.

Fredo's brother won't let Trump-appointed judges officiate weddings

Fredo's brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) hates President Trump so much that he just vetoed a bill that allows all federal judges to officiate at weddings in New York. He says that he cannot stomach the idea that even some of the judges might be Trump appointees. That is the mental illness known as Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS).

“I cannot in good conscience support legislation that would authorize such actions by federal judges who are appointed by this federal administration,”  the progressive older Cuomo said in a statement Friday as he nixed the bipartisan bill that was passed overwhelmingly by the Democratic-controlled state legislature.

“President Trump does not embody who we are as New Yorkers,’’ the Democratic governor said, referring to New Yorkers with the same political affiliation but leaving out the many who voted for Trump.

“The cornerstones that built our great state are diversity, tolerance, and inclusion. Based on these reasons, I must veto this bill.” Because he is intolerant and doesn't include those who voted for Trump, nor respect the members of his own party who voted for the bill. Much of this has to do with him being a sufferer of TDS.

Under current New York law, all state judges can preside over weddings in their official capacity — as can the governor, mayors, former mayors, some city and deputy city clerks, local justices, clergy members and any member of the public ordained especially for the occasion.

But only certain federal judges in New York — from the second circuit court of appeals and Southern, Eastern, Northern and Western districts — are eligible to officially preside over the ceremonies. The bill would have expanded that to all New York federal judges, as well as those from out of state, and it would not be a big deal because it has nothing whatsoever to do with who the president is at the time, and has to do with being civil.

Cuomo took jabs from both sides of the political aisle over what critics called his petty partisanship.

Democratic state Sen. Liz Krueger of Manhattan told The Post that she helped sponsor the bill because it was a no-brainer, much like Andrew Cuomo.

“Four years ago, we gave the governor the ability to perform marriages. Two years ago, we gave legislators that ability. So when it was suggested to me that we expand it to federal judges, I thought, ‘Why not? The more the merrier!’ ” Krueger said.

“I’m certainly no fan of the judges this president is choosing to appoint, but since any New Yorker can become a minister online for $25 and legally perform weddings, I didn’t consider this to be a major issue.’’ Because it is not a major issue for normal people.

Cuomo’s Republican foes were less diplomatic.

“It’s hard to imagine a more petty, small action from a sitting governor, but that’s Prince Andrew in a nutshell,’’ said Nick Langworthy, chairman of the state Republican Party.

Marc Molinaro, Cuomo’s former GOP opponent for governor and the current Dutchess County executive, called the veto “absurd.”

“Couples can and do make the decision about who should officiate their most special day themselves,’’ Molinaro said. “My gosh, this state allows about any official to be a marriage officer. One can get a license to marry online.

“Why should a federal judge not have the same ability?”

Albany Law School Professor Vincent Bonventre said that while he generally supports Cuomo and considers “many of President Trump’s nominees to the federal bench … far too ideological and rigidly partisan,’’ the governor’s stated reason for his veto “is utterly unpersuasive.”

Because Cuomo, like his brother Fredo, is a block of wood. The competition as to which brother is the dumbest of the two rages on, and for now, Andy Boy is in the lead.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HANUKKAH TO ALL
