A Biden-appointed judge is fighting to bring a convicted sexual predator who assaulted a disabled woman back to American soil, halting a deportation flight in midair and leaving taxpayers to foot the bill for his continued presence in our country.
Key Points
- Judge Brian Murphy ordered the Trump administration to maintain custody of eight deported illegal immigrants, including a Burmese national convicted of sexually assaulting a disabled woman.
- DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin condemned the judge’s decision as “deranged,” calling it an attempt by a “far-left activist judge” to interfere with deportation efforts.
- The deportation flight was paused in Djibouti following the judge’s ruling, despite the deportees being described as “true national security threats” by ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons.
- President Trump has urged the Supreme Court to address the issue of activist judges blocking his administration’s deportation efforts.
Biden-Appointed Judge Blocks Deportation of Violent Criminals
In a stunning display of judicial activism that defies both common sense and public safety, U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy has ordered the Trump administration to halt the deportation of eight illegal immigrants with serious criminal convictions. Among them is Nyo Myint, a Burmese national convicted of attempting to sexually assault a disabled woman with the mental capacity of a 3-year-old. The judge’s intervention came after the deportation flight had already left U.S. soil, forcing it to remain grounded in Djibouti while our judicial system decides whether violent criminals deserve to stay in America.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin didn’t mince words when responding to this judicial overreach, stating: “This ‘Lincoln man’ is an illegal alien and one of the monsters that the activist Massachusetts district judge is trying to bring back to the United States after he was deported yesterday.” She added, “The message this activist judge is sending to victims and their families is we don’t care. President Trump and Secretary Noem are working every day to get vicious criminals out of our country while activist judges are fighting to bring them back onto American soil.”
Public Safety Takes a Backseat to Procedural Technicalities
Judge Murphy claims the deportations violated a previous court order because the illegal immigrants weren’t given proper notice or a “meaningful opportunity” to object to being sent to a third country. But let’s be real – these aren’t innocent people caught in bureaucratic red tape. According to ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons, “These represent the true national security threats.” The eight deportees include individuals convicted of murder, attempted murder, and sexual assault – exactly the kind of dangerous criminals Americans overwhelmingly want removed from our communities.
The judge’s ruling prioritizes procedural technicalities over the safety of American citizens. These illegal immigrants were being deported to third countries because their home nations – including Cuba, Laos, Mexico, Myanmar, Vietnam, and South Sudan – refused to accept them back. Instead of recognizing this as a necessary measure to remove dangerous individuals from our streets, the court is forcing ICE to maintain custody of these criminals, at taxpayer expense, while immigration attorneys argue their case.
President Trump Calls for Supreme Court Intervention
President Trump expressed his frustration with activist judges blocking his administration’s immigration enforcement efforts. Taking to Truth Social, he declared: “The Judges are absolutely out of control, they’re hurting our Country, and they know nothing about particular situations, or what they are doing — And this must change, IMMEDIATELY!” His call for Supreme Court intervention highlights the growing tension between the executive branch’s responsibility to protect citizens and a judiciary increasingly willing to obstruct immigration enforcement.
The Biden-appointed judge’s decision to prioritize the rights of convicted criminals over the safety of American citizens is exactly why immigration has become such a flashpoint in our politics. When the judicial system works harder to protect those who victimize the most vulnerable among us – like the disabled woman assaulted by Nyo Myint – than to safeguard law-abiding citizens, something is fundamentally broken. This ruling isn’t just bad law; it’s a betrayal of the core principle that government’s first duty is to protect its citizens, not criminal illegal aliens.
