Supremes nix law to aid deports

ANYONE WHO suspects they are in the NYPD’s gang database can use a new website to ask police to hand over the files on them.

The Legal Aid Society, which has criticized the database as overinclusive and inaccurate, on Tuesday went live with a web page that guides people wanting to know if they’ve been labeled a gang member on how to file a Freedom of Information Law request with the NYPD to find out.

The page will “help New Yorkers – especially those from communities of color – determine if they have been caught in the NYPD’s gang labeling dragnet,” said Legal Aid’s Anthony Posada. PRESIDENT Trump took a veiled shot at his own Supreme Court pick Neil Gorsuch on Tuesday, claiming that a ruling he joined on immigration law perpetuates “a public safety crisis.”

The Supreme Court’s 5-to-4 ruling — an unusual alignment in which Gorsuch sided with the four liberal justices for the first time — concerns a catchall provision of immigration law that defines what makes a crime violent. Gorsuch and the four liberal justices found a provision that makes it easier to deport foreigners convicted of “a crime of violence” was too vague to be enforced.

Trump said the “decision means that Congress must close loopholes that block the removal of dangerous criminal aliens, including aggravated felons.”

“House and Senate must quickly pass a legislative fix to ensure violent criminal aliens can be removed from our society,” he tweeted. “Keep America Safe!” He didn’t mention Gorsuch by name. The ruling was a loss for the administration, which has tightened immigration enforcement.
