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.

    Not sure how Republicans are able to rationalize how expelling these specific individuals makes America any better or fixes literally any of it’s problems.

    This is just petty retaliation.

      I think they rationalize it quite easily, just like all the other garbage that’s ok as long as it’s one of their own.

      I wonder where they will go. Their homes in Ukraine are probably destroyed.
