U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is planning to revoke temporary legal status for some 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia, a senior Trump official and three sources familiar with the matter said, potentially putting them on a fast-track to deportation.

The move, expected as soon as April, would be a stunning reversal of the welcome Ukrainians received under President Joe Biden’s administration.

    (This is a bad decision, we should support Ukraine, fuck Trump. Genuflection complete)

    For people who didn’t read the article:

    The clickbait headline is framing it as if there was a recent decision to specifically target Ukrainians. That is not the case.

    This is from a January 20th executive order to the DHS directing that they end temporary humanitarian parole programs.

    What the article points out is that this would impact Ukrainians too.

    It’s like writing a headline that Trump has decided to raise the cost of goods and services for Ukrainian refugees but the article talks about tariffs that will raise prices for everyone. It’s not wrong, but it’s still a misleading headline.
