U.S. Supreme Court Sides With Trump | Legal Protection ends, Mass Deportation looms

The U.S. Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for over 350,000 Venezuelans, stripping legal protections granted during the 2021 humanitarian crisis. Issuing a brief order with no explanation, the Court sided with Trump’s argument that immigration policy falls under executive authority. Only Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented. The ruling could have immediate humanitarian and economic impacts. Immigration advocates call it one of the largest legal status removals in modern U.S. history. #SupremeCourt #TPS #TrumpImmigrationPolicy #VenezuelanMigrants #Deportation #ImmigrationNews #USPolitics #HumanRights #BreakingNews #SCOTUS #TrumpAdministration #MigrantCrisis #LegalStatus #KetanjiBrownJackson #ImmigrationLaw #USSupremeCourt #PolicyShift #TPSTermination #VenezuelaCrisis #MigrantProtection #ImmigrationReform #Dissent #MigrantRights #TrumpPolicy #JudicialRuling Also Read Supreme Court Permits Trump Administration to Revoke Legal Protections for 350,000 Venezuelans Facing Deportation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/supreme-court-allows-trump-to-strip-legal-protections-venezuelans-011-4158147.html?ref=DMDesc India Is Not a Dharmashala: Supreme Court Echoes Country's Struggle Amid Refugee Overload :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-is-not-a-dharmashala-supreme-court-echoes-countrys-struggle-amid-refugee-overload-4157789.html?ref=DMDesc SC Raps MP Minister for Calling Col Sofiya Qureshi ‘Sister of Terrorists’, Calls Apology ‘Crocodile Tears’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sc-raps-mp-minister-for-calling-col-sofiya-qureshi-sister-of-terrorists-calls-apology-crocodile-4157513.html?ref=DMDesc
