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.

    Article talks about how Trump will make the decision soon not that he already has revoked their status. A little sensational in the title but I won’t be holding out hope that Trump keeps them here 😔.

      He has a pattern of making statements like these as test balloons, to gauge public sentiment. Sometimes he’ll back off if the backlash is big enough, thinking it makes him look magnanimous or something to not commit atrocities after all.
