This is in violation of the rights of asylum seekers and a violation of our treaties.
It also includes other bullshit like making it more difficult to make credible fear claims and thus easier to deny asylum (when they bother to have the border open).
Legally he shouldn’t be able to just blanket deny asylum claims, but America never lets the law get in the way of fucking nonwhite people over.
Any of the people who ran in 2020 would probably be fine, they have name recognition and I bet they’d all say yes. That’s why they had the debate before the Convention! They wanted to see how Biden would do and he did terribly. He needs to be replaced.
Hell, most of us voted for Biden under the assumption he would be a one term president!
And it is the end of the world for the people who will literally die because they couldn’t wait in the US while their asylum claim was being processed. That’s the huge part. What the new rules do is force them to remain in Mexico (literally a 2019 Trump policy btw), where people seeking asylum are in mortal danger and will die. Stop trying to normalize this.

That’s an outright lie. He’s literally shutting down the border in violation of our treaty obligations.

Pausing asylum claims means people have to wait and die. For them, there’s no difference between a pause and a denial.
Pausing claims after such a low number of approvals will also mean some people will be waiting months.
Why are you even bothering to defend Bide after last night? We should be replacing him!
