I'll use my platform here, roughly the only one I have, to say there are pogroms against Muslims and 27 people have died in Delhi under the reign of Modi's Hindutva fascism.

Just as I was dreading embarking on briefing "perceived inconsistencies" ... looky, look we got handed yet another zook from the BIA on how to deny asylum and insulate it from judicial review: Matter of Y-I-M-

here is the link to the decision

justice.gov/eoir/page/file…
negative credibility determinations are so prevalent these days (thanks Congress!, for coming up w the shi*y REAL ID Act) and inconsistencies are stretched to absurdity by judges & TAs now IJs are free to not even bring an inconsistency to the attention of the applicant:
"When an inconsistency is obvious or apparent, it is not necessary to bring it to an applicant’s attention. [] In such a case, “it can properly be assumed that the asylum applicant and his counsel are aware of [the inconsistencies],” and it is “the applicant’s responsibility to..

This is also happening with "Remain in Mexico." They're getting approved for asylum, but not being allowed out of detention or into the United States.
"But despite the grant of asylum, Alec remained detained at the San Ysidro Port of Entry in San Diego by immigration officials who threatened to return him to Mexico until they decided whether to appeal the immigration judge’s ruling."

What changes this is public pressure. This is the optics administration. So keep pressuring, publicly.

In a ruling from the Board of Immigration Appeals: The court wants to uphold a judge’s ruling which removed an immigrant from the U.S. who claimed if returned to Mexico, he would be involuntarily admitted to a mental hospital and subjected to torture; conditions squalid etc.
1/4
A judge removed him anyway - he appealed saying the removal violated the Convention Against Torture Act, which should protect him from being subjected to cruel/unusual treatment - something he argued was present in Mexico.
2/4
The judge acknowledged conditions might be poor but because he couldn't prove the treatment in Mexico would rise to the level of torture per se, the judge's removal order was upheld.
The BIA upholds here, dismissing the appeal.

This #thread is a bit wonky, so bear with me. It's important for people to understand that Trump's ugly vision of deportation without a judge or due process is not just another unhinged tweet. It’s part of the Trump plan & it could become reality tomorrow. Here’s why..
2/The #immigration law is already very harsh and provides for "expedited removal" through a unilateral decision made by a low level immigration officer without opportunity for the individual ordered deported to make his or her case before an immigration judge;
3/Specifically, the immigration law already gives a low level @CBP or @ICEgov bureaucrat unfettered power to order someone removed fr the US "without further hearing or review" unless the person indicates an intention to apply for asylum or a fear of persecution. INA 235(b)(1);

The White House #immigration principles released last night r a White Supremacist wish list of anti-immigrant hate law. Low lights include:
Border Wall (no surprise there); Gutting the bipartisan laws w/protect unaccompanied kids so they can be deported back to horrific violence;
gutting the asylum law so that refugees can be sent back to persecution and torture; gutting due process to speed up deportation
