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.

      That kid almost became a historic legend.

      I honestly don’t know what would have happened. Would the country have been upset and voted for whatever other scum Republicans tossed in as Trump’s replacement? Would it have been too late and the country would have just defaulted to Dems to be safe? I don’t know. But the kid would have still been a hero.

      Sooooooo close.

        The republican that took his spot would have won with a big majority but at least it wouldn’t be a Russian asset

          Not so sure how many republicans in office aren’t Russian assets at this point. There’s a bunch of them though, have been for a while.

        Yeah. Shooting targets is hard. Especially when it’s oozing to and fro on a stage X number of yards away.

        The real question is if it had made contact with his head, would it have killed him since his brain occupies such a small portion of that head? People often can live if a bullet doesn’t hit any vital organs.

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

      People who know people affected are usually powerless.
