Summary

The Trump administration plans to revoke temporary legal status for 240,000 Ukrainians who fled Russia’s war, fast-tracking them for deportation.

The move is part of a broader effort to strip protections from 1.8 million migrants admitted under Biden’s humanitarian parole programs.

Trump’s policies also target 530,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.

Legal challenges are mounting, as affected individuals face uncertain futures. Advocates warn that even U.S. allies, such as Afghans who assisted the military, are now at risk of detention and deportation.

    I wonder what the Ukrainian people want.

    Especially the ones misplaced to the US by a war Russia started, and now have to return to a war zone because the USA is now politically aligned with Russia, and willing to break international treaties, law, and ethics if it gets them Putins favor.

    You’re an absolute idiot it you can’t comprehend the international seppuku the USA has just committed by failing to help displaced war refugees, and instead now helps their aggressors.

    Anyone with a shred of humanity would see this as the evil bullshit it is.

    Instead, you’re pointing out that a country at war needs to conscript troops. No shit. Check out how Russia is doing it, if you want a real comparison to call inhumane.

        My dude. So you understand what a war is and how it works?

        Do you understand how Russia has done the same?

        Do you understand how 500,000 Russians are now dead because of that?

        Do you understand that those 500,000 dead Russians are invading a country they promised peace with in 1995?

        Do you ultimately understand the point you are making is about how the citizens of the Ukraine are being forced by Russia to either fight for their country or die?

        Because that is the policy you are defending despite it clearly being the reason there’s 500,000 dead Russians and not the other way around.

        If you want to decry military enlistment as “evil” then you are by far picking the worst example. Russia is far worse in their policies, with a far higher body count, and they are the reason anyone is dying at all.

        Which means you are either making your arguments out of bad faith or pure stupidity.

        If your argument was made in WW2 it would be about how evil the US is for defending Pearl Harbor.
