Judge blocks Trump asylum order, gives administration two weeks to appeal

A federal judge has thrown one of President Trump’s key immigration plans into doubt. U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss in Washington ruled that the Trump executive order suspending asylum access at the southern border was unlawful. But he put the ruling on hold for two weeks to give the government time to appeal. In January, Donald Trump declared an invasion of America. However, the judge wrote that neither the Constitution nor immigration law gives the president the authority to repatriate or remove individuals from the U-S “without an opportunity to apply for asylum.”
