A divided Supreme Court on Friday cleared the way, for now, for the Trump administration to revoke the temporary legal status of more than 530,000 migrants from four countries who have been allowed to live and work in the United States while their immigration cases play out.
The ruling is the second time in recent weeks the high court has given Trump officials permission to terminate programs that protect immigrants fleeing countries wracked by war or economic turmoil. Earlier this month, the court allowed the administration to revoke temporary protections that have allowed nearly 350,000 Venezuelans to live and work in the United States.
Legal challenges to each of the Trump administration’s action will continue in lower courts, and could eventually reach the Supreme Court for a full hearing on the merits.
For now, the justices are allowing two of the president’s most aggressive moves to deport large numbers of migrants who during the Biden administration had been given permission to live and work in this country after fleeing harsh conditions at home.

So old "Balls and Strikes" Roberts continues to forego established immigration precedent? Chickenshit spineless weasel. And his harridan wife too.

Migrants are temporary workers - mostly agricultural laborers - who leave the country whenever they're done picking the crops. Our US farmers rely on this essential work because Americans won't or can't do it within the requisite time limits.
Refugees are unfortunate people who fled their homeland because of dire necessity. For example Ukrainians and Venezuelans to name a few, who fully intend to return to their own countries when it's safe to return. Meanwhile we give them temporary safe harbor and some economic assistance such as food and lodging.
Both of these groups are allowed to enter the country legally and given temporary permits, or green cards or whatever. Now Chump is declaring them all illegal aliens without even a hearing.
Migrant workers have no intention, or need, to settle here permanently. They come for the picking season and then they go back home. They do nothing illegal while they're here. Sometimes their children get free education in our public schools, but even that's not a regular thing anymore.
An action that allows DHS/ICE to detain and deport them “temporarily”, while the legal case winds its way through the court system for how many months?
What a crock of shit!
