Truthdig -Lock them up and throw away the key. That sums up President Donald Trump’s efforts to stop immigrants from seeking asylum when threatened by gangs, abusive spouses or their own murderous homelands....
The Trump effort is revealed in a lawsuit filed by Freedom for Immigrants and several other pro-immigrant groups. The suit alleges that Immigration and Customs Enforcement field offices are denying parole or bond to immigrants asking for asylum and holding them in detention centers until they are granted hearings in chronically backlogged immigration courts. The process may take months or even years. In the past, many more were paroled or released on bond until their court hearings came up.
