“The only good Tory is a dead Tory."
THE TRUMP administration asked the US Supreme Court on Thursday to strip temporary legal protections from 350,000 Venezuelans, potentially exposing them to being deported.
The Justice Department asked the high court to put on hold a ruling from a federal judge in San Francisco that kept in place temporary protected status (TPS) for the Venezuelans that would have otherwise expired last month.
The status allows people already in the US to live and work legally because their native countries are deemed unsafe for return due to natural disaster or civil strife.
