Gotta love that the frickin manual actually uses firing on shipwrecked sailors as an *obvious* example of an illegal order.

Now the Trump regime wants to deport Afghan refugees, in case you're wondering why an Afghan refugee might have a grudge against the Trump regime.

The folks at @afghanevac.bsky.social have in hand a new USCIS directive which largely targets Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.

In case you needed a reminder that the most loathsome people in the world work for DHS.
USCIS Refugee Memo – Summary of Key Provisions Effective immediately, USCIS is ordering: ● A total freeze on all pending Form I-485 applications filed by refugees admitted from Jan 20, 2021 – Feb 20, 2025 ● A mandatory re-interview of all principal refugees admitted during that period ● A review and potential re-interview of derivative refugees, including spouses, children, and follow-to-join beneficiaries ● A reassessment of whether each refugee met the definition at the time of admission Authority being invoked: ● INA § 101(a)(42) (refugee definition) ● INA § 207 and § 209 (termination and adjustment authority) ● USCIS asserts power to undo past refugee admissions Consequences: ● USCIS may terminate refugee status for principals and all derivatives ● USCIS may deny green cards, even for those who already have them ● There is no appeal of a denied refugee-based I-485; the only option is to contest removal in immigration court ● Refugees placed in removal proceedings may renew their I-485 claim before an immigration judge Additional conditions: ● USCIS has 90 days to create the priority list for who will be re-interviewed ● The freeze on I-485s remains until lifted in a future memo ● Only the USCIS Director or Deputy Director may authorize exceptions ● USCIS is explicitly framing this as correcting “expediency,” “quantity over quality,” and “vulnerabilities” in Biden-era adjudications ● The memo states USCIS will revisit all inadmissibility grounds, including those previously waived ● The memo highlights a review of the persecutor bar ● It asserts a need to ensure refugees “pose no threat to national security or public safety”
