BREAKING: Our clients are being barred from presenting their non-refoulement (fear of MX) interviews at the border. Approx 30 @ImmDef @AlOtroLado_Org clients have been barred since noon. Our atty @CargioliM is taking over to report the latest updates #RestoreAsylumNow (THREAD) 
Children and families who have survived multiple kidnapping attempts, those assaulted by MX police, families held at gunpoint - all NOT ALLOWED non-refoulement interviews for the last 5 hours @CargioliM
Among the vulnerable families we are presenting at the POE is a family with a 6 year old who were threatened by narcotics traffickers in Mexico. #SaveAsylum
The spectacle at the White House today hearkens back to the colonial era when European powers would arbitrarily set up borders & divide lands in their overseas domains without consulting the “natives", and call their schemes "peace" & prosperity. nyti.ms/2tPxNVM
There were no #Palestinians at #Trump & #Netanyahu’s table, but Palestinian rights were the main course of the banquet, to be dissected, chopped up & served by two rogue & shameless men with notorious relations with truth, justice, integrity and human decency. #rightsmatter
#Trump’s warped“vision”is a bilateral agreement between the U.S. & #Israel presented to the much weaker #Palestinians & containing impossible conditions & the promise of creating a Bantustan-like emasculated entity surrounded by Israel so that the Palestinians would call it home.
An immigration judge granted my MPP (“Remain in Mexico”) client a bond. He is an asylum seeker. Dept. of Homeland Security requested a stay to the Board of Immigration Appeals. It was DENIED.
Today the bond was paid. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ACCEPTED the payment. I presented my client at the San Ysidro Port of Entry along with the Immigrant Judge’s ORDER and ICE’s confirmation of accepting payment.
We waited 4 hours into the evening to be told my client would NOT be allowed to enter the U.S. My client was crushed. I am not giving up because glaring due process violations must be extinguished.
