A federal judge in Ohio ruled against the Trump administration Monday, citing bigoted comments President Trump and Vice President JD Vance made about immigrants.
U.S. District Judge Algenon Marbley ordered the White House to unfreeze immigrants’ benefit applications, citing Trump and Vance’s “outright hostility towards immigrants, both before and after the 2024 presidential elections.” These applications include filings for work authorization and green cards from people in the U.S. from countries including Burma, Canada, Iran, Nigeria, Syria, Tanzania, and Venezuela.
“Their ire appears focused on immigrants from countries in the Caribbean, South America, Africa, and Asia,” Marbley, nominated to the federal bench by President Clinton in 1997, wrote.
None were overtly racial. Covert racism is fine.
The direction they’re going in is that overt racism is now fine, in addition to covert racism. As long as there’s also some other non-racial parallel reasoning.
Hurting minorities: There’s a totally non-racist reason
Helping minorities: Unacceptable consideration of race/Racist against white people
I think you meant “reasoning”.
