Summary
President-elect Donald Trump’s team is reportedly planning to end two Biden-era immigration programs, potentially making hundreds of thousands of migrants who entered the U.S. legally eligible for deportation.
These programs—CBP One and the CHNV parole program—allowed over 1.3 million migrants from countries like Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the U.S. legally.
Trump’s initial deportation focus is expected to include individuals deemed national security risks, such as Chinese nationals of military age, as well as those with criminal convictions.
Legal challenges are anticipated, similar to those seen during Trump’s first term.
A lot of people don’t seem to understand that 2024 Trump is not 2016 Trump. In 2016 a lot of Republicans and cabinet members opposed him. Now Trump has the Republicans fully under his control, willing to do whatever he wants.
