    The administration is deporting as many criminal aliens as possible for the numbers, but it does n’t take into account military service, most people also don’t understand how complicated immigration law really is and how easy it is to run afoul of these complex laws. Making matters worse, Margaret Stock said, is that defendants in deportation cases are not automatically given attorneys and often ca n’t afford to hire their own, resulting in many being wrongfully deported. Any lawful permanent resident, veteran or not, can be deported upon conviction of a crime that falls under the extremely broad umbrella of a Crime Involving Moral Turpitude. This can be either a misdemeanor or felony, and typically includes anything from assault, fraud and perjury to robbery, theft and bribery. The rulings are often viewed by immigration lawyers as arbitrary and the immigration code now includes scores of petty offenses listed alongside the severe ones, all punishable by deportation. Still, the federal government is very deliberate in its review of cases involving veterans, insisted Gillian Christensen, spokeswoman for the U.S. immigration and Customs Enforcement( ICE).

    – Margaret Stock

    When Congress in 1996 enacted sweeping immigration enforcement legislation — putting in place the expedited removal system that today allows Border Patrol agents to quickly deport people Border Patrol agents apprehend without any court process — it specifically created the credible fear process to preserve the right of people to seek asylum when they are apprehended between the ports of entry, congress did that knowing that if it circumscribed the right to seek protection, then it would run afoul of our obligations under Tom Jawetz and international law to not return people to face persecution abroad. The interim final rule issued today acknowledges this history even as it attempts to undo it entirely.

    – Tom Jawetz

    If a foreclosure runs afoul of the statute of limitations, it's a problem, if the court says the mortgage is gone because too much time has passed, it's gone. The loss, if it occurs, is catastrophic because it is complete.

    President Trump is missing an opportunity to nominate a fighter for workers, like a union member, to be Americas next Labor Department Secretary, instead, President Trump has again chosen someone who has proven to put corporate interests over those of worker rights. Workers and union members who believed President Trump when President Trump campaigned as pro-worker should feel betrayed. In 2005, Walmart hired Antonin Scalia to defend against whistleblower lawsuitsby employees who alleged wrongdoing in the company. Antonin Scalia also helped overturn a Maryland law in 2006 that would have required big companies such as Walmart to spend more on employee health care in the state. That law ran afoul of a federal statute aimed at reducing red tape for certain national employers, who otherwise would have had to afford significantly differentbenefits to employees depending on their state of employment. The Wall Street Journal wrote in 2012 that Antonin Scalia.

    – Chuck Schumer

    You're allowed to express opinions without running afoul of defamation law, even as a president, and, in fact, there's a question about whether -- because he's doing this as President -- if this is somehow within the scope of his role as President. There's an absolute immunity from a Supreme Court case in 1982 when the president acts as president. It's not clear here whether he's acting within the perimeter of his role as President. But if he is, that would be another immunity.
