A group of Venezuelan nationals are suing the Trump administration’s Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS), Kristi Noem, claiming the decision to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for approximately 600,000 Venezuelans in the United States was illegally motivated by race. The lawsuit, filed in federal court in San Francisco, is being brought by the ACLU Foundation of Northern California, the Center for Immigration Law and Policy at UCLA School of Law, California, the ACLU Foundation of Southern California, and the National Day Laborer Organizing Network on behalf of the Venezuelan TPS designees.

“The Secretary’s decisions also were motivated at least in part by racial animus, in contravention of the Fifth Amendment,” the lawsuit claims, continuing: “That is clear from statements the Secretary made when announcing the decisions themselves, labeling Venezuelan TPS holders as ‘dirtbags’—an expression of racism "

OK...so the 9th Circus will rule in the wetbacks’ favor.Then it goes to SCOTUS. I believe that I’ve read that the 9th Circus is overruled often by SCOTUS...very often in fact.

I know some Venezuelans. They are not a race. There are multiple races in that country: European, African, native American, and various mixtures.

Therefore there is no applicability of the 14th amendment.

So what? They are not citizens so they don’t get Constitutional protections.

Illegal invaders are suing us in our courts.

You cannot make up this stuff.

Indict their lawyers for RICO.

That’s the old 0th. The new 9th appears to be pretty balanced.

‘ OK...so the 9th Circus will rule in the wetbacks’ favor.’

The associated press is the wetback?

This should cause all Americans to get militant and send these bastards back to where they came from. The audacity.

What part of “temporary” do they not understand?

...dirtbags’—an expression of racism ...

Obviously the racism exists on their side. Dirtbag is a term that could be used on anybody of low character. To associate it with a particular race is racist.

A lawsuit filed in San Francisco by the ACLU Foundation, on behalf of Venezuelan nationals, targets DHS Secy, Kristi Noem, and claims ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for some 600,000 Venezuelans in the US was illegally motivated by race.


Racism? Where do they get off?

600,000! They come here illegally and now they want to sue so they can stay in the country they invaded? The gall of these people. They are the ones who voted in the commies in Venezuela. Why don’t they go back to their own country and try to fix it.

The unfounded sense of entitlement seems to be the only assimilation that took place. .

This is utterly ridiculous. If Joe Biden can make the TPS. Then another President can revoke it!

In CA, they (or someone using their ID’s) probably voted for Congressmen and Kameltoe, in the Elections of 2024.
