Fighting Trump’s Asylum Ban

What qualifies as an invasion at the U.S.-Mexico Border? In an excerpt from this week’s Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance break down a federal judge’s ruling blocking President Trump’s effort to declare an “invasion” at the border to limit asylum access in the U.S.

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss two recent Supreme Court decisions. The first case affords parents of elementary school children a religious exemption to school lessons on LGBTQ+ storybooks. And the second case cleared the way for the Trump administration to deport a group of immigrants to South Sudan, even though they have no connection to the country. Plus, Attorney General Pam Bondi is facing blowback following DOJ’s disclosure that Jeffrey Epstein didn’t have a “client list” and wasn’t murdered.
