Trump EXPOSES Supreme Court’s Immigration SCAM! | PART 3

Quick Overview

The speaker argues that the Supreme Court, in reviewing the government's position on asylum eligibility, should not defer to the agency's interpretation of statutes like Section 1252(a)(2)(A) because the government's broad interpretation of persecution and its failure to apply precedent consistently make its stance constitutionally suspect, ultimately suggesting the core issue is whether the facts presented meet the legal standard for persecution or suffering, independent of prior agency deference.
