- Federal court rules Trump's asylum ban proclamation unlawful — US District Judge Randolph Moss ruled that President Trump's proclamation declaring an "invasion" at the US-Mexico border and suspending asylum processing exceeded presidential authority and violated the Immigration and Nationality Act and Constitution. Trump had signed the proclamation on inauguration day, directing officials to "repel, repatriate, or remove" migrants. Moss found the president lacks authority to unilaterally replace Congress's immigration statutes with an alternative system. The Trump administration has 14 days to seek emergency relief from the federal appeals court; if upheld, the ruling would require the Department of Homeland Security to resume processing asylum claims at the southern border.
