Trump administration to strip legal status from 532K migrants living in US


The Trump administration will revoke temporary legal status from potentially more than half a million migrants who entered the US legally under a Biden-era programme

By Alicia A. Caldwell

The Trump administration will revoke temporary legal status from more than half a million migrants who entered the US legally under a Biden-era program, according to a notice posted Friday in the Federal Register.

The 35-page notice, set to be formally published March 25, outlines the administration’s plan to end humanitarian parole and accompanying work permits for nationals of Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti and Venezuela who were allowed to fly directly to the US after applying from abroad. CBS News first reported the change.

Roughly 532,000 people will lose their legal status beginning in late April, the Department of Homeland Security said. Those without another legal basis to remain will be required to leave or face deportation.

The administration has already declined to extend Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans and Haitians, a separate designation, which affects hundreds of thousands of people already in the country. The first group is set to lose their permission to live and work in the US as early as April.

The 3 countries other than Haiti have been squeezed wildly by US-imposed sanctions designed to make life so bitterly painful economically the population feels pressured to overthrown their leaders who don't put US business interests first, above the needs of their people. That's a pattern which the US has employed going back as far as 1897, when it was described in a memorandum by US Undersecretary of War, John Breckenridge.

If the people simply try to emigrate to the US, and the US throws them out they are totally ####ed. That idea would appeal to only racist ####s and other monsters.
