In Mullin v. Doe,the supreme Court upheld the Trump administration&#8217;s authority to end TPS for these nations,allowing the termination of protections for over a million individuals and dismissing legal challenges to these actions. additionally,in Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, the court ruled that asylum seekers physically blocked from reaching U.S. territory cannot claim asylum from the Mexican side, affirming policies that limit asylum claims from on the border.<\/p>\n<p>Another critical ruling pertained to immigration enforcement related to criminal backgrounds, which will facilitate easier denial of entry and removal of criminal immigrants. However, the court\u2019s upcoming decision on Trump\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/immigrant-group-suing-trump-receives-federal-funds\/\" title=\"Immigrant group suing Trump receives federal funds\">birthright citizenship executive order<\/a>, which seeks to limit citizenship rights for children of illegal or temporary visa holders, may pose a significant setback for his immigration agenda. During oral arguments, the Justice Department faced tough questions, and the likelihood of a ruling against the order appears high.<\/p>\n<p>while the recent rulings have favored Trump\u2019s policies, the court\u2019s stance on the birthright citizenship challenge may be less favorable, reflecting ongoing judicial scrutiny of executive actions in immigration issues. The court is scheduled to release its final opinions early next week before the recess until the next term begins in October.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"4\">Donald Trump<\/a>\u2018s immigration agenda has notched several key wins as the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/supreme-court\" type=\"link\" id=\"washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/supreme-court\">Supreme Court<\/a>\u2018s term draws to a close, but a key loss appears imminent on one of the high court\u2019s final opinion days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Supreme Court is wrapping up its 2025-26 term with likely two opinion days beginning Monday, when the justices will issue opinions in the eight outstanding cases, including many of the most closely watched disputes argued before the high court this year.<\/p>\n<section class=\"explore-more-section\" id=\"wex-recommended-widget\">\n<div class=\"magazine-container single\">\n<h1 class=\"magazine-title mt-2\">Recommended Stories<\/h1>\n<p>             <i class=\"fa-solid fa-play icon\"><\/i>         <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-grid\">\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4626721\/supreme-court-trend-biggest-cases-final-days-term\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Supreme Court continues trend of saving biggest cases for final days of term<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4624821\/alito-aloha-second-amendment-hawaii-gun-case\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Alito rules \u2018spirit of aloha\u2019 does not override Second Amendment in Hawaii gun case<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4604161\/supreme-court-allows-trump-end-tps-haiti-syria\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Supreme Court allows Trump to end TPS for Haiti and Syria<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s birthright citizenship executive order will be one of those decisions, and it could give the president a key loss a week after the Supreme Court handed him three major immigration wins.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-1\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-1\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-15\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-1\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<h2 id=\"h-temporary-means-temporary-supreme-court-says\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2018Temporary\u2019 means temporary, Supreme Court says<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Thursday, the high court released two major opinions in immigration cases that help Trump\u2019s aggressive immigration agenda. In <em>Mullin v. Doe<\/em>, the Supreme Court <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4604161\/supreme-court-allows-trump-end-tps-haiti-syria\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4604161\/supreme-court-allows-trump-end-tps-haiti-syria\/\">ruled<\/a> 6-3 to allow the Trump administration to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mayorkas-building-bureaucratic-bridge-to-import-more-ukrainian-migrants\/\" title=\"Mayorkas Building Bureaucratic Bridge to Import More Ukrainian Migrants\">end temporary protected status<\/a> for Haiti and Syria, and ruled that the determination to end TPS by the homeland security secretary cannot be legally challenged. The ruling penned by Justice Samuel Alito opens the door for the administration to end TPS for people from various other countries, allowing the status to be stripped by the administration from the more than 1 million foreign nationals estimated to have TPS.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While TPS was intended by Congress to be a temporary humanitarian protection, various TPS designations have been endlessly extended by previous administrations, lasting decades in some cases.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Trump administration has aggressively attempted to end TPS for most of the countries that currently have it, arguing the emergencies or circumstances that triggered the designations are no longer severe enough to warrant the deportation protections and that the indefinite extensions have become a form of blanket amnesty that runs counter to the purpose of the program. The Supreme Court\u2019s ruling clears the way for the administration to end TPS without the intensive legal pushback that has plagued it for over a year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-2\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-2\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-16\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-2\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"h-reining-in-asylum-claims\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reining in asylum claims<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other major immigration win for the Trump administration on Thursday came in <em>Mullin v. Al Otro Lado<\/em>, where the high court <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/opinions\/25pdf\/25-5_86qd.pdf\">ruled<\/a> 6-3 that an asylum-seeker physically blocked from reaching U.S. territory cannot legally claim asylum from the Mexico side of the border. The case dealt with the question of whether an asylum-seeker at the border has arrived \u201cin the United States\u201d even if he or she is stopped on the Mexican side of the border. In his majority opinion, Alito found the answer was \u201cno.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe wisdom of the policy of metering alien arrivals at the southern border is not before us. We decide only that an alien standing in Mexico does not \u2018arriv[e] in the United States.\u2019 The [Immigration and Nationality Act] neither entitles such an alien to apply for asylum nor requires an immigration officer to inspect him,\u201d Alito wrote.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The case centered on the \u201cmetering\u201d policy at the border to prevent migrant surges from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/supreme-court-to-consider-when-asylum-seekers-have-arrived-in-the-us\/\" title=\"Supreme ... to consider when ...s have arrived in the US\">overwhelming federal immigration officials<\/a>. The policy was formalized by the first Trump administration but revoked by the Biden administration and has yet to be reinstated. With the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling, the administration could reinstate the policy with this key question resolved.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-3\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-3\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-17\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-3\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two wins on Thursday came two days after the Supreme Court handed immigration officials a win on <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >denying legal permanent residents<\/a> with criminal backgrounds entry back into the United States, with its 6-3 <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4620784\/clarence-thomas-dhs-win-denying-criminal-immigrants-us-entry\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4620784\/clarence-thomas-dhs-win-denying-criminal-immigrants-us-entry\/\">ruling<\/a> in <em>Blanche v. Lau<\/em>. The ruling, written by Justice Clarence Thomas, will make it easier for immigration officials to deny entry and remove criminal immigrants, a key part of the president\u2019s aggressive immigration agenda.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the administration had a successful week on immigration at the Supreme Court, the high court\u2019s final immigration ruling \u2014 on Trump\u2019s birthright citizenship order \u2014 appears likely to be a major setback for the president. Trump himself has <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/4588485\/trump-probably-lose-birthright-citizenship-case\/\">predicted his administration will \u201cprobably\u201d lose<\/a> the case, blaming a \u201crigged\u201d judiciary in May for the anticipated outcome.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in <em>Trump v. Barbara<\/em> on April 1, and the president\u2019s executive order appeared to get a chilly reception during the two-and-a-half-hour arguments. The case deals with Trump\u2019s January 2025 executive order stating that birthright citizenship does not extend to children born in the U.S. to parents who are both in the country illegally or on a temporary basis, such as on a visa. The executive order faced a litany of lawsuits before making its way to the Supreme Court this term.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-4\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-4\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-25\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-4\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During oral arguments, the Justice Department <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4512165\/tough-questions-birthright-citizenship-supreme-court\/\">faced several tough questions<\/a> from a highly skeptical Supreme Court bench. Early in the arguments, Chief Justice John Roberts questioned the DOJ\u2019s use of \u201cquirky\u201d examples of people excluded from birthright citizenship, such as the children of foreign diplomats, to justify excluding broad groups of people, such as illegal immigrants. The only justice who appeared somewhat open to the DOJ\u2019s arguments was Alito, as <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4512516\/trump-supreme-court-birthright-citizenship\/\">Trump watched on<\/a> from the public gallery in a rare public appearance of a president at Supreme Court arguments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/4562772\/major-supreme-court-decisions-remainder-term\/\">THE MAJOR SUPREME COURT DECISIONS REMAINING FOR THIS TERM<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Supreme Court oral arguments do not always give a correct indication of how the high court will rule in a case, it typically illustrates which side has the tougher challenge in convincing the justices. The administration appeared to be facing an uphill battle convincing nearly all of the justices during the lengthy hearing earlier this year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-5\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-5\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-26\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-5\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Supreme Court is scheduled to issue opinions at 10 a.m. on Monday and will likely add an additional opinion day this week to conclude its term.
