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.

    Our checks and balances within our federal government have failed. Categorically.

    Absolutely, the whole system was based on the administration respecting the law, when it doesn’t do that, all the checks and balances don’t work.

    They’re not particularly smart though.

    Sadly that seems like the best hope we have.
