Records Show Anti-Trump Federal Judge Was Democrat Activist: Report

A federal judge who temporarily blocked President Donald J. Trump’s effort to dismantle a controversial Biden-era immigration program is facing renewed scrutiny—not only for her ruling, but for her long-documented ties to Democrat partisanship and an organization with alarming links to the Chinese Communist Party.

Judge Indira Talwani, appointed by Barack Obama in 2013 to the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts, issued a 41-page opinion Monday halting the Trump administration’s move to terminate the CHNV parole program, a legacy policy that has allowed over half a million migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to remain in the United States under so-called “temporary” legal status.

But the Supreme Court swiftly stepped in, siding with President Trump and granting the administration power to move forward with the revocation—impacting roughly 500,000 foreign nationals who entered under the Biden program.

While establishment media attempted to frame the ruling as impartial jurisprudence, newly resurfaced public records paint a different picture.

Before ascending to the federal bench, Talwani actively volunteered for at least four high-profile Democrat campaigns—those of Barack Obama, Deval Patrick, Elizabeth Warren, and Martha Coakley. Her campaign activity included phone banking, door knocking, and sign waving on behalf of Obama’s 2008 campaign and Warren’s 2012 Senate run.

But more troubling than her partisan activism is Talwani’s 2012 acceptance of an award from the Chinese Progressive Association (CPA)—an organization with documented ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

As Natalie Winters of The National Pulse reported, the CPA was founded by self-described Maoist revolutionaries, including co-founder Fay Wong, who praised the Chinese Communist Revolution as “very inspiring.”

Talwani received the group’s “Workers Justice Award” just one year before her nomination to the federal bench and continues to list the honor among her official credentials. The CPA has been flagged by experts and lawmakers for promoting pro-Beijing messaging and supporting policies aligned with China’s geopolitical agenda.

With Talwani now wielding power to interfere with federal immigration enforcement, critics argue her background and associations raise serious concerns about judicial bias and foreign influence in the American legal system.

Despite the judge’s ruling, the Trump administration is pushing forward with efforts to unravel the Biden-era CHNV parole program, which critics say was little more than a backdoor amnesty policy used to flood the U.S. with migrants outside of lawful immigration channels.

Under DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, Trump’s team has already revoked Temporary Protected Status for migrants from countries like Afghanistan and Cameroon—part of a broader effort to restore the rule of law and reestablish border integrity after four years of Biden’s open-border chaos.

In her ruling, Talwani wrote that if parole is revoked, migrants would face two options: leave voluntarily or await deportation proceedings.

“For some Plaintiffs, leaving will also cause family separation,” Talwani wrote.

To America First conservatives, that’s the cost of sovereignty—not a reason to protect illegal pathways into the U.S.

Meanwhile, President Trump praised El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele during a Fox News interview Tuesday, highlighting the Central American leader’s dramatic crackdown on gang violence through ultra-modern mega-prisons like CECOT, which now houses thousands of MS-13 members deported from the U.S.

In an interview with Rachel Campos-Duffy, wife of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, Trump even floated the idea of utilizing El Salvador’s model for housing dangerous criminals inside the United States.

“We are using [President Bukele’s] system because we’re getting rid of our criminals out of the United States,” Trump said.

Campos-Duffy responded, “Could we use it for our own violent criminals?”

“I call them homegrown criminals… We are looking into it, and we want to do it,” the president replied.

As the Trump administration continues to prioritize border enforcement and public safety, his base is likely to cheer both the Supreme Court’s rebuke of Judge Talwani’s decision and the president’s bold strategy for dealing with violent crime—whether foreign or domestic.
