Why? What's the justification for refusing to grant asylum for someone who is, in fact, a legitimate asylee? - </i?

The same justification that will exist after the new law is in place. Except now there is a tool to do so. Controlling overwhelming migration was the justification and still is.
To use the new law means those turned away are being denied a hearing, something you think 100% are entitled to. I think this is OK because we are a sovereign country making a decision. You seem to extend some right to non citizens presently not in our country that if they come here they have a right to to make their case and it is a right we must honor under all circumstances.
The idea that "all migrants have a right" is unsustainable as more and more citizens are becoming aware of, thanks to the pioneering work done by Greg Abbott.
