The Trump administration has appointed 33 new immigration judges, many with military backgrounds, in a move that some experts say could have a deeper impact than routine actions by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the US.
Indian-origin historian Varad Mehta quoted a planned regulation alongside the new appointments, noting on X, “The Trump administration plans to publish a fast-track regulation on Friday that would cut the time for someone to appeal an immigration judge's decision to 10 days and make it easier for the appeals board to dismiss appeals.”
