In a surprising move, the Pentagon announced that military and civilian lawyers from the Defense Department will temporarily serve as immigration judges. The decision, part of Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, aims to reduce the massive backlog of immigration cases.

Officials said the temporary assignment will last 179 days, with hundreds of lawyers expected to volunteer. But here’s the catch: military lawyers aren’t trained for immigration law, making the transition a tough challenge even with extra training.

Critics see it as another example of Trump leaning on the military for domestic policy. What do you think military attorneys can really handle in the complex role of immigration judges?
