“The threat to black lives posed by crime on the streets is massively greater than any threat posed by police misconduct,” said Barr.

‘ABSURD RULING’: Trump Admin Responds to Judge’s Decision to BLOCK Asylum Ban
A joint statement released by the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security Tuesday slammed a San Francisco judge’s “absurd” ruling that blocked the Trump administration’s recent crackdown on asylum seekers.
The official release comes just hours after a federal judge effectively barred the White House’s recent efforts to prevent the “migrant caravan” from illegally entering the United States.
“Our asylum system is broken, and it is being abused by tens of thousands of meritless claims every year,” said the statement. “It is absurd that a set of advocacy groups can be found to have standing to sue to stop the entire Federal Government from acting so that illegal aliens can receive a government benefit to which they are not entitled.”
“We look forward to continuing to defend the Executive Branch’s legitimate and well-reasoned exercise of its authority to address the crisis at our southern border,” it added.
