- JONATHAN TURLEY: Supreme Court hands Trump a border victory liberals can't spin
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that asylum seekers must be physically present in the United States to file claims, rejecting the Biden administration's approach to border processing. The decision in Mullin v. Al Otro Lado and Mullin v. Doe also upheld the Trump administration's revocation of temporary protection status for Syrian and Haitian immigrants. The majority opinion emphasized literal interpretation of 'in' the U.S., while dissenting justices argued for contextual readings of immigration statutes.
