Summary

The Trump administration has abruptly fired 20 immigration judges without explanation, raising concerns amid efforts to accelerate deportations.

The firings include judges who had yet to be sworn in and senior officials overseeing immigration courts, which already face a backlog of 3.7 million cases.

Union official Matthew Biggs said it was unclear if the move was meant to send a message on immigration policy but called it part of a broader federal workforce purge, adding, “They’re treating these people as if they’re not human beings. It’s bad all around.”

    He’s the puppet. Always has been. Two guesses who the “master” is… and you’ll probably get them both right.

        I wouldn’t give them the satisfaction of such a comparison. How about the two henchmen of Cruella DeVille… that’d seem more fitting.
