The assault on our country continues apace

“The Biden administration has canned several immigration judges, all appointed by Trump, and replaced them with “progressive” magistrates. Republicans have an idea as to why this happened (spoiler alert: politics as usual) but sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland demanding answers anyway. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) want the answers by 5 p.m. on August 3.”
The letter begins:
Dear Attorney General Garland:
We write about your decision to terminate the employment of multiple immigration judges who were hired during the Trump Administration. If true, your termination of these immigration judges because of their political ideology suggests that the Department of Justice (DOJ) acted in violation of the Civil Service Reform Act (CSRA), which specifically prohibits discrimination on the basis of political affiliation. We request your full cooperation with our inquiry.
“Grassley and Jordan are pretty sure they know why the illegal immigrant-loving Biden admin sacked the judges, and they even have a receipt:”
At least some of these terminations appear to have been the result of a coordinated effort between the Biden-Harris Administration and far-left immigration advocates. In fact, in tweeting about two of the terminations, one such advocate commented: ‘I’m immensely proud to have participated in this campaign.”
“Immigration judges have a two-year probationary period, after which they are almost always moved to a permanent gig. Oddly, the judges all got fired just before their probationary period was up. Weird, right? It’s almost like Biden wants illegal immigrants to keep cascading over the southern border with impunity.
“As of today, there are roughly 590 judges presiding over 1.8 million pending cases. Biden is looking to add another 100 judges by October, ensuring years of immigration invasions. November 2024 can’t get here fast enough.”
