A federal judge Tuesday agreed to stay his order that the Obama administration turn over immigration records of over 50,000 people and require Justice Department lawyers attend ethics courses.
In a one-page order, Judge Andrew Hanen of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas said he will hear a challenge to his controversial order on August 22.
The dispute began last month, when Hanen — the federal judge who temporarily blocked President Barack Obama’s controversial executive actions on immigration last year — issued the scathing order accusing the government of making misrepresentations to him when he heard the immigration case in 2015. The order did not impact the President’s executive actions, which are currently before the Supreme Court.
Last week, administration lawyers asked Hanen to stay his ruling saying they “emphatically” disagreed with the sanctions and would appeal the matter to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Separately, immigration rights groups expressed outrage that the judge was asking for records of those that participated in a 2012 program called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) who are not a party to the case. The groups say the order is a threat to DACA recipients’ privacy.
Omar Jadwat, senior staff attorney with the ACLU’s Immigrants’ Rights Project, called the judge’s stay “an important victory” but said it is not a “permanent fix.”
“We will continue to fight for a ruling that fully safeguard immigrants’ privacy rights,” he said in a statement.

What about the ‘property rights’ of the People of Texas and also of the ‘invaded country’? Immigrants are aliens and, as such, have no privacy rights under our system of laws.

MILITARY GOVERNMENT.
(dis)tinction between enemies who are subjects of a foreign government, and are therefore called” alien enemies,” and those who are denizens and subjects of the United States, and being engaged in civil war, are called” public enemies. ”
An alien owes no allegiance or obedience to our government, or to our constitution, laws, or proclamations. . A citizen subject is bound to obey them all. In refusing such obedience, he is guilty of crime against his country, and finds in the law of nations no justification for disobedience. An alien, being under no such obligation, is justified in refusing such obedience. Over an alien enemy, our government can make no constitution, law, or proclamation of obligatory force, because our laws bind only our own subjects, and have no extra-territorial jurisdiction.
Over citizens who are subjects of this government, even if they have so far repudiated their duties as to become enemies, our constitution, statutes, and proclamations are the supreme law of the land. . The fact that their enforcement is resisted does not make them void. It is not in the power of armed subjects of the Union to repeal or legally nullify our constitution, laws, or other governmental acts.

So, from where does the ACLU derive its power to protect aliens privacy rights, or any other rights of aliens for that matter, when there is no power under our system of laws to grant it?
WHAT RIGHTS!!!!!! THEY ARE ILLEGAL!!!!!!!WHAT HE SAID!!!!!
““We will continue to fight for a ruling that fully safeguard immigrants’ privacy rights,” he said in a statement.”
Yea, apparently the “privacy rights” of Texans and American Nationals take a backdoor to ILLEGAL immigrants’ privacy rights. Yea, I see how it is.
F**KING TRAITORS!!! Hang ’em all! 😡
I wonder what the Just-Us department dug up on the judge, for purposes of ‘persuasion.’ I’m afraid the judge might have an unfortunate accident if Bathhouse Barry has his way. Judge, keep your head down, but please don’t buckle under.
U.S. attorneys take classes on ethics? Oh my, my my my. Lipstick on a pig! A toilet bowl sanitizer in a cesspool the size of New Jersey.
