Another half a million immigrants (mostly refugees and asylum candidates) will now be available for Trump’s ICE bullies to abuse and deport.
It’s as though Trump strives to create misery for people on the largest scale possible.
President Donald Trump’s administration is reportedly gearing up to end temporary legal status for more than 530,000 people who arrived in the United States from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Haiti.
This comes after Trump directed his officials to “terminate all categorical parole programs that are contrary to the policies of the United States,” on the first day of his second term at the White House.
According to a Federal Register document, these people entered the country via former President Joe Biden’s temporary parole programs which are scheduled to end on April 24.
According to the document, people who had parole under these programs “must depart the United States before their parole termination date.”
If these people do not leave before the parole is terminated, the Department of Homeland Security will “remove” them.
Homeland Security Secretary [& Bimbo #2] Kristi Noem said that this move “directly” follows Trump’s order and “complements and underscores the Administration’s pivot to a foreign policy that prioritizes the United States’ interests in a secure border …”
