This is a must-read, but I want to single out the appalling behavior of the immigration judge in particular.

He prejudged the case, repeatedly tried to stop the asylum hearing from going forward, and berated a crying mom, demanding: “All right, STOP."

The judge appeared in NYC via video. Because of the camera's limited field of view, he didn't know there was a reporter there.

When he found out, he exploded, shouting at the DHS attorney: "Oh, Jesus Christ! Don't you people look around the room? What's the matter with you?"
An immigration judge who calls a case a "cesspool," who denies even one continuance to gather more evidence, who tries to convince the asylum seeker to give up before the case even begins, and who badgers DHS to argue against the asylum seeker, is not "trying to be fair."
