Donald Trump Confirms: We’ll Re-Cancel DACA ‘Shortly’

President Donald Trump said Friday morning the administration will soon restart the regulatory process to cancel President Barack Obama’s “DACA” amnesty.

“We will be submitting enhanced papers shortly in order to properly fulfil the Supreme Court’s ruling & request of yesterday,” he said via social media.

The court dodged the legal issues in the DACA case and did not help Democrats, Trump said. “Nothing was lost or won. They ‘punted’, much like in a football game.”

But Trump also repeated his willingness to make a deal that would provide citizenship to the more than 700,000 adult children of illegal migrants. “I have wanted to take care of DACA recipients better than the Do Nothing Democrats, but for two years they refused to negotiate,” he said.

Democrats have given up on helping the DACA migrants, Trump suggested. “They have abandoned DACA. Based on the decision the Dems can’t make DACA citizens. They gained nothing!”

…ruling & request of yesterday. I have wanted to take care of DACA recipients better than the Do Nothing Democrats, but for two years they refused to negotiate – They have abandoned DACA. Based on the decision the Dems can’t make DACA citizens. They gained nothing! @DHSgov

Pro-migration groups reacted with hostility, in part, because they do not want to trade anything to get amnesty for at least two million younger illegal immigrants living in the United States.

“DACA recipients must not be used as leverage in political and social battles,” said a response from the pro-migration Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service advocacy group. “These men and women are not bargaining chips – they are every bit as American as the rest of us and they are here to stay.”

The LIAS group is allied with business groups and with left-wing progressives which that support immigration because it expands chaotic diversity and adds more alienated voters to the Democratic tallies.

Business groups are also trying to frustrate Trump’s cancel-and-negotiate strategy.

“Making your re-election about an all-in push to deport 700k Dreamers is awful policy and terrible politics,” said a response from Todd Schulte, the director fo the FWD.us advocacy group for West Coast investors.

The investors, including Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates, gain wealth when legal and illegal immigrants nudge down wages, push up housing prices, and boost retail sales.

Re-sharing this (I know, sorry), given the President’s tweets a few minutes ago.

It appears the President is listening to those who want him to spend the next 4 months going all in attacking the Chief Justice and trying to kill DACA so he can deport Dreamers leading into Nov. https://t.co/v2uRgF863I

That number of young illegals in the United States is far larger than the 800,000 who gained from Obama’s 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals amnesty.

Some estimates say the Democrats’ DACA amnesty could include three million illegals, or more if the loopholes ar large.

The population of younger illegals has jumped since 2012 partly because Obama’s deputies set rules that have allowed at least 400,000 so-called “Unaccompanied Alien Children” to join their illegal immigrant parents living in the United States.

Trump and his deputies, however, have largely blocked the UAC pipeline that has delivered many illegals’ children to cities around the United States.

Donald Trump has shut the coyote-to-agency 'UAC' pipeline that relayed up to 500,000 'unaccompanied' migrants to illegal-immig parents & relatives since 2009.
Everyone in DC knows the gov't was helping the cartel-coyotes deliver extra consumers & workers. https://t.co/vjifrpxYTP

There will be no DACA deal and trump knows it, he is ending it and letting the Demoncrats show that they will not make any deal with any concessions (like reduced legal immigration) to save the DACA invaders.

President Trump is venturing onto increasingly shaky legal ground as officials reject new applications for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, sidestepping a Supreme Court ruling reinstating DACA, legal experts and lawmakers say.

The court ruled last month that the Trump administration hadn't followed federal procedural law or justified terminating DACA in 2017, calling the rescission "arbitrary and capricious."

DACA grants protection from deportation to so-called Dreamers brought to the United States as children. The Obama-era program, which has bipartisan support, has given temporary relief to some 700,000 young immigrants, with nearly 200,000 DACA recipients in California.

The court did not decide on Trump's executive authority to rescind DACA, and offered the administration a road map for how to try to end it for good.

But despite threatening another attempt to shut down the program, the president hasn't tried. Monday — 25 days after the ruling — was the deadline for the administration to file for a rehearing, and it didn't.

But neither have officials moved to restore the program.

In 2017, then-Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions declared that DACA was unconstitutional. Lower courts issued orders that kept the program in place while the Trump administration appealed to the Supreme Court. The administration was then required to renew existing DACA cases, but has blocked tens of thousands from applying for DACA for the first time who became eligible when they turned 15.

In the wake of the court's ruling in June, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services agency — which administers DACA — is still rejecting first-time applications, or is confirming receipt of the new applications but then not acting on them, according to lawyers.

Jaclyn Kelley-Widmer, associate clinical professor at Cornell Law School and an immigration attorney, said USCIS is sending these new applicants notices saying the agency is "not accepting initial filings."

Meanwhile, other USCIS employees say they've received no guidance on the Supreme Court ruling or new DACA applications. The agency did not immediately respond to requests for comment Thursday.

The White House's refusal to either act or restart the program sets up a potential showdown with the court with little precedent, says Muneer Ahmad, clinical professor at Yale Law School, who was involved in a New York-based DACA suit against the administration.

"The longer the administration refuses to accept and adjudicate new applications and declines to issue a new rescission order," said Ahmad, "the more of a legal concern that becomes."

The White House declined to respond to requests for comment Thursday, and the Justice Department did not immediately respond.

Immediately after the court ruled, Trump and his officials rejected the decision as "politically charged."

“The Supreme Court asked us to resubmit on DACA, nothing was lost or won,” Trump tweeted, trying to reframe the high-profile defeat on immigration, his signature campaign issue.

USCIS deputy director for policy, Joseph Edlow, said that the decision "merely delays the President’s lawful ability to end the illegal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals amnesty program."

In early July, Democratic senators wrote to Ken Cuccinelli, the acting deputy Homeland Security secretary, demanding that USCIS take down the statement from its website, including the "egregiously false claim" that the Supreme Court ruling "has no basis in law" which they wrote "can only be read as a threat that USCIS will not comply with the Court’s order." Cuccinelli has not responded, said Maria McElwain, a spokeswoman for Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), one of the letter's authors. The statement remains on the agency's site.
