Has the ACLU become a tool of the radical left?

The ACLU and one other organization in San Francisco have petitioned federal Judge Jon S. Tigar for a restraining order against President Trumps order to deny asylum to anyone not entering the United States at a legal point of entry. This will delay the implementation of Trumps order for at least one month.

Any caravan member who decides to rush the border illegally is now free and clear thanks to the ACLU.

Since they;ve been know to defend the rights of Nazis and other hatemongers and bigots, I'd say "no". But they have gotten a lot of attacks from the Left for some of the people they have defended.

@ChipmunkErnie They are supposed to be consistently fair in defending the rights of others, and my understanding is that now the consistency is gone.

@4meAndyou No idea, really. Thing is, it's USUALLY the Right who are trying to curtail our freedoms, so I'd guess they most often support suits by causes on the Left. But historically they'll defend anyone whose rights have been curtailed.
