Trump Strips Legal Status From Over Half A Million Migrants, Tells Them To Self-Deport

Hundreds of thousands of migrants who were paroled into the country by the Biden administration were informed Thursday that their legal status and work authorization has been officially revoked and are now being encouraged to self-deport back to their countries of origin.

The Department of Homeland Security began notifying many of the more than 530,000 migrants from Cuba, Venezuela, Haiti, and Nicaragua that their parole had been formally revoked as of Thursday. The move comes after the Trump administration announced in March that it would revoke the status of the migrants.

“They allowed more than half a million poorly vetted aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela and their immediate family members to enter the United States through these disastrous parole programs,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin charged.

She added that the Biden administration “granted them opportunities to compete for American jobs and undercut American workers; forced career civil servants to promote the programs even when fraud was identified; and then blamed Republicans in Congress for the chaos that ensued and the crime that followed.”

President Donald Trump also railed against the Biden administration’s immigration policies and encouraged illegal aliens to self-deport in a post on Truth Social Thursday.

“Biden let 21 Million Unvetted, Illegal Aliens flood into the Country from some of the most dangerous and dysfunctional Nations on Earth — Many of them Rapists, Murderers, and Terrorists,” Trump wrote. “Those who are here illegally should either self deport using the CBP Home App or, ICE will find you and remove you. Saving America is not negotiable!”

The formal revocation of parole status for more than half a million migrants comes a week after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration, noting that it was within the president’s power to modify the status of the migrants.

The ruling came in the wake of a federal judge’s decision to temporarily block Trump from revoking the status. That judge, The Daily Wire reported, previously volunteered for and donated to prominent Democrat candidates, including Senator Elizabeth Warren and former President Barack Obama.

“Ending the CHNV parole programs, as well as the paroles of those who exploited it, will be a necessary return to common-sense policies, a return to public safety, and a return to America First,” McLaughlin said.

The Trump administration previously encouraged illegal aliens to self-deport, remaking an online application that was previously used to streamline migrants into the country into a platform where illegal aliens can submit their intent to depart the United States. Illegal aliens can even qualify for a $1,000 stipend and have their travel costs covered if they leave the country voluntarily.
