Appeals court rejects illegal immigrant journalist’s bid to fend off deportation

A federal appeals court shot down Mario Guevara’s appeal trying to head off what he believes to be his looming deportation, saying the illegal immigrant journalist didn’t show the immigration courts were wrong.
Mr. Guevara says he was targeted for deportation after reporting critically on Trump administration immigration policies.
But the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said that issue wasn’t before them at this time. Instead, Mr. Guevara filed a specific request to stay his deportation, and the three-judge panel said its precedents preclude that ruling.
