'REMAIN IN MEXICO' BLOCKED BY FEDERAL JUDGE: A federal judge Monday halted the Trump administration's policy of forcing certain non-Mexican asylum seekers to wait in Mexico during their court proceedings, POLITICO's Ted Hesson reports. "In a 27-page order , San Francisco-based U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg issued a preliminary injunction against the policy, a decision that represents another legal setback for the Trump administration's hard-line immigration agenda," Hesson writes. "The ruling did not tackle the question of whether DHS has the authority to send asylum seekers to Mexico. Instead, it found that plaintiffs were likely to demonstrate that the policy did not comply with federal regulatory law." More here.

Where a person is categorized as illegal — as undocumented immigrants have been — they can more seamlessly be treated as if their existence is a crime.
