Garbage system for a garbage country. They could fix it, but the wealthy don’t want to because it allows people to be exploited.
I’m sure the next administration will fix all this/s
Immigration courts are not part of the Judicial Branch, they are part of the Department of Justice and thus under the Executive Branch.
The Judges are unilaterally appointed by the US Attorney General, with no approvals or oversight from other branches.
They are not Administrative Law Judges, and do not conduct formal adjudications covered by the Administrative Procedure Act. There is nothing “judicial” about immigration court, the name is a lie.
The current system as we know it was created in 1952 amid Cold War era fears of Soviet and communist spies and sympathizers, directly related to McCarthyism. The Immigration and Nationality Act was vetoed by Harry S. Truman, and overridden by the House and Senate.
No wonder they have crap like children representing themselves. This should have been overhauled 60 years ago.
