The Supreme Court just made the border a 'No Entry' zone for asylum seekers
It turns out you need to be on U.S. soil to ask for asylum, and the highest court in the land just made sure you can't get there.
The Supreme Court just gave the government a green light to block people from even stepping foot on American soil if they are looking for asylum. It is a 6-3 split that effectively turns the border into a giant 'do not disturb' sign.
Physical presence is now the ultimate gatekeeper. If you haven't crossed that invisible line, the law basically pretends you aren't there to make a claim. It’s a neat procedural hack that lets the government dodge the whole asylum application process by just stopping people before they make it past the threshold.
The irony of having laws for asylum that you are legally prevented from ever reaching is peak 2024.
