Joe Kent ‘Glad to See’ SCOTUS ‘Take a Stand Against the Rabid Left’ With 9-0 Ruling Against Permanent Residency for Illegal Immigrants

America First Congressional candidate Joe Kent, who is running to primary Rep Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-WA), who voted to impeach then-President Donald Trump in January, applauded yesterday’s SCOTUS ruling against permanent residency for illegal aliens.

In a tweet, Kent outlined the decision and said, “Our Supreme Court ruled 9-0 against permanent residency for illegal aliens living in the U.S. for ‘humanitarian’ reasons.”

“We are a nation of laws. Glad to see the Supreme Court take a stand against the rabid Left,” Kent explained.

Yesterday, we reported:

Obama appointed Justice Elena Kagan penned the opinion in the unanimous ruling in Sanchez v Mayorkas. Kagan wrote that lawful permanent residency requires “admission” into the U.S., which the court defined as “the lawful entry of the alien into the United States after inspection and authorization by an immigration officer.”

The case involved a couple from New Jersey, who had entered the country illegally from El Salvador in 1997. The couple was able to stay in the United States under Temporary Protected Status. In 2001 they applied for Temporary Protective Status which was granted to them. The couple sought to gain a permanent residence visa (Green Card).

With a 9-0 vote from the Supreme Court, the law is clear, one must enter legally into the United States in order to gain permanent residence status.

Kent is a combat veteran who spent 11 tours as a Green Beret/Ranger in Iraq and Afghanistan in special forces.

Christopher C. Miller, Trump’s last acting Secretary of Defense and was Joe’s commanding officer in combat and later in the CIA sent a two page endorsement for Kent.

Kent is the late husband of Shannon Kent, who was among four Americans killed by an ISIS suicide bomber in Syria in January 2019.
