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.
And this time he has a clear plan written by people who know that Trump doesn’t have to be successful or competent in his execution of the plan to achieve their aims.
For all of the agencies that Project 2025 wants to privatize, redirect the budget from, or “make them run like a business,” the first step is breaking the agency before even looking to move to that next purported step. So it doesn’t matter if they get their plan 100% enacted. A small success in any realm is billions on the pockets of capitalists, and changes that can’t be easily undone.
