The Administration’s policy of mass immigrant exclusion includes:

— stripping citizenship from natural-born US citizens
— deporting US citizen children of unauthorized parents
— mass voiding of legal status from large classes of noncitizen immigrants

Not a ‘crackdown’. A purge.

NEW: the Trump admin has moved to terminate TPS for Honduras and Nicaragua, covering over 50,000 people

Both of these designations date back to 1999, meaning Trump wants to strip legal status from people here legally who have had a background check every 18 months for the last 26 years.
