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.

This traitor is destroying all our allegiances. In a single month.

It's time for America to accept that we have placed a literal traitor in the highest office.

And it's time for us to man the fuck up and start adhering to our fucking Constitution. We're letting a felon rapist traitor fuck our future.

Who’s going to do it? All I see is a bunch of internet talk. There’s no leadership. Just a bunch of ppl scared and posting online or emailing/calling senators. We especially need straight white men standing up. The dem paddle holding was just pathetic.

[–] Bosht@lemmy.world 52 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

So at this point it's not even illegals but those that have gone through the effort to obtain status. What the actual fuck.

[–] Lemmist@lemm.ee 14 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Well, in this case, why not just deport Trump?

[–] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 10 points 1 hour ago

Or at least his wife.

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I kind of understand immigrants.

But refugees? That's just a NASTY move.

[–] socialjusticewizard@sh.itjust.works 4 points 43 minutes ago

he's threatening to invade his allies, "nasty" was already met and passed.

[–] HighFructoseLowStand@lemm.ee 43 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

I remember hearing Trump's foreign policy described as "isolationist."

He's not an isolationist.

He's on Russia's side.

I would prefer if he were an isolationist.

[–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 6 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

This, and I would go further. There is no such thing as right and left for russian puppets. Their "ideology" is whatever is needed for their particular populace and the only thing aligning them around the world is the trail of money.

[–] brookdale05@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago

Well then the next step is actual betrayal of Ukraine by giving their intel to Russia.

Never mind he’s probably already doing so.

[–] notsoshaihulud@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I thought he wasn’t into DEI. Europeans were underrepresented among the deportees, now trump’s promoting equity there.

I can't believe the cruelty. I'm just... But... No words.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 21 points 3 hours ago

Make America satanic again.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 18 points 3 hours ago

What the fuck

[–] TomMasz@lemmy.world 80 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

Tell me Trump is a Russian asset without saying he's a Russian asset.

[–] index@sh.itjust.works -4 points 35 minutes ago

How does this specifically benefit russia? Ukraine government is drafting people by force and not allowing any male between 18-60 from leaving the country.

I hate that i can understand this with my 0.001 knowledge of russian. You are not my brother, you are my state* (oblast)

Why is Trump still living?

Oh comon, that was a really good shot under pressure

High school rifle club.

Most people who care what happens to others they never met are not murderers.

People who know people affected are usually powerless.

He's living proof that time travel into the past is never going to get invented ... likely because he cut most science funding.

Sometimes I feel like I was the only one who remembered that this is what it was like the last time he was in office. Just every day some fresh hell, like a treadmill of anger and grief until the only real reason to protest is so that they don't drive you permanently numb.

The scope of this new order is hard to contemplate. 0.77 million people who are being shown the door today. Our colossus is in need of a new credo.

“Give me your billionaires, your oligarchs, Your hunched war criminals yearning for the Lolita Express, The wretched refuse of your banking sectors. Send these, the landlords, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden arches!"

Edit to add: I know that it is currently only a plan. I do not need to bicker with anyone about this.

I feel like it's worse this time. Darker. We didn't have the Ukraine or Israeli war. We didn't have perverse AI videos like the Gaza video with a giant golden Trump statue.

2016 was the rise of Trump. Right now we are in the age of Trump. Trump is steadily increasing his power and I believe fairly soon he will be able to more or less unilaterally control the federal government as he continues his purges.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 hours ago

It's far, far worse this time.

Last go around sure, there would be a fucked up tweet almost every day, but much fewer actual changes. Yeah Trump did some fucked up shit over those 4 years, but he's done more fucked up shit in the last month than in that whole term.

That is a large amount of people being sent back to a country where there is a good possibility that they will be killed. The country that is throwing them out (the US) has a lot of sympathetic people to their cause...and a lot of easily accessible guns.
