Trump Fired 15 More Obiden-Appointed Immigration Judges Who Refused to Enforce Deportations

Many of America’s judges have stopped judging and started playing politics.

Our beloved country’s immigration system has been a battlefield of competing visions for decades.

This from thepatriotjournal.com.

On one side, there is a belief that borders should mean something, that entry into our nation is a privilege rather than a right. On the other side exists a network of officials who seem to place American interests last.

The difference between these two approaches could not be clearer than it is today. While many Americans struggle with rising costs and safety concerns in their communities, some government officials have been working overtime—not to protect citizens, but to keep the revolving door spinning for those who entered our country illegally.

President Trump’s administration has taken another bold step to address this problem by firing 15 more immigration judges who were appointed during the Obiden years. These activist judges received notice via email on Friday their employment would end on July 22, as they reached the end of their 2-year probationary period that began under the previous administration.

From The Post Millennial:

A new wave of immigration judge firings was carried out Friday, with 15 judges receiving notice via email that their employment would end on July 22. The judges are finishing the end of a 2-year probationary term that begane when they were appointed under the Biden administration. The Trump administration has been working to close borders while the Biden administration sought multiple semi-legal ways to get more illegal immigrants into the country.

These recent firings are not isolated incidents. According to reports, approximately 50 other dismissals have occurred in the past six months. The administration has also implemented a voluntary resignation program known as “Fork in the Road,” which has further reduced the number of personnel handling immigration cases.

The dismissal emails sent to the affected judges cited constitutional grounds for the decision. They stated:

Pursuant to Article II of the Constitution, the Attorney General has decided not to extend your term or convert it to a permanent appointment.

These judges were based across multiple states including California.

Critics claim these firings will worsen the nearly 4-million case backlog in immigration courts. But supporters see it differently. It is like cleaning out a clogged pipe sometimes you need to remove the blockage before water can flow properly again. The Trump administration is systematically removing obstacles to effective immigration enforcement. They are replacing judges who delayed deportation orders with those who will uphold the letter of the law.

One dismissed judge told reporters:

I wanted to ride it until the very end… I figured as long as I am here, I can do some good.

This statement raises questions about what this judge considered “doing good”—was it following immigration law as written, or finding loopholes around it?

Matt Biggs, president of the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers union that represents the judges, criticized the move as “hypocritical.” He said:

You can’t enforce immigration laws when you fire the enforcers.

But this criticism misses a crucial point. Enforcers who do not actually enforce are an impediment to maintaining the system as intended—and thus We the People are not effectively and properly served. Further, many of these judges were appointed during the Obiden Regime which openly sought ways to prevent deportations and limit border enforcement—meant to be a detriment to the good order and discipline of our beloved country.

According to Fox News:

[A] total of 103 immigration judges have either been fired or voluntarily left since President Trump took office.

While hiring and training replacements typically takes over a year, Congress has recently approved major funding that includes over $3 billion for immigration-related Department of Justice operations.

Final thought: Progress rather than perfection.

God speed to the Trump-Vance team.
