May 30 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday let President Donald Trump's administration revoke the temporary legal status of hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan, Cuban, Haitian and Nicaraguan migrants living in the United States, bolstering the Republican president's drive to step up deportations.
The court put on hold Boston-based U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani order halting the administration's move to end the immigration "parole" granted to 532,000 of these migrants by Trump's predecessor Joe Biden, potentially exposing many of them to rapid removal, while the case plays out in lower courts.
As with many of the court's orders issued in an emergency fashion, the decision was unsigned and gave no reasoning. Two of the court's three liberal justices, Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor, publicly dissented.
The court botched its assessment of whether the administration was entitled to freeze Talwani's decision pending the litigation, Jackson wrote in an accompanying opinion.
The outcome, Jackson wrote, "undervalues the devastating consequences of allowing the government to precipitously upend the lives and livelihoods of nearly half a million noncitizens while their legal claims are pending."
Immigration parole is a form of temporary permission under American law to be in the country for "urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit," allowing recipients to live and work in the United States. Biden, a Democrat, used parole as part of his administration's approach by to deter illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexican border.
Trump called for ending humanitarian parole programs in an executive order signed on January 20, his first day back in office. The Department of Homeland Security subsequently moved to terminate them in March, cutting short the...

The tariff decision and this indicates the court will likely overrule district courts nationwide rulings, I hope.
Notice the use of the word “lets”?
Like this is some special privilege that only he gets...
Contrary to the relevant sections of the Constitution, we now have 10 Chief Executives instead of just ONE!
I saw that too. The word should have been “affirmed.”
76,000 Honduras TPS beneficiaries will run out this July. The extension was done by Biden in September 2024.
They are here from Hurricane Mitch in 1998!!
“”US Supreme Court lets Trump revoke ‘parole’ status for migrants””
US Supreme Court supports President Trump’s revocation of the Hussein/Biden Regime illegal ‘parole’ status for illegal trespassers, too many of whom continue to terrorize.
There, fixed it.
Wait until a District Judge overrules the Supreme Court
Bull Hockey! SCOTUS AFFIRMED POTUS AUTHORITY ON THIS ISSUE. They did not let him do anything not already in his job description. That we are litigating the POTUS duty description, Congress needs to have the Senate affirm his duties, putting them about the third branch who is in dissent/lawfare resistance.
Exactly. It ain’t over until a lowly and obscure (and preferably foreign-born) leftist district judge says it’s over!
The democrats have used a number of fictions to circumvent US Code, Title 8, from (BS) “political asylum” to DACA—which they insisted calling “Dreamers” trying as usual to control the language (though Durbib’s ‘Dream’ act failed) because DACAns sounds like (gulp) aliens.
The Kenyan even tried to get DAPA: an exception for illegal parents(!)
It’s past time for some Fife bud-nipping of this lawlessness by dems and their cheap labor RINO allies.
Their judges are the open borders scofflaws’ last defense against their violations of Title 8.
The irony: they look to biased judges to extend their lawlessness.
“””Notice the use of the word “lets”?
Like this is some special privilege that only he gets...””
That was mighty white of them to allow him to do the job he was hired to do.
The ruling against Trump on this claimed that the parole status must be given or revoked by a comprehensive process. Trump’s lawyers can argue the paroles are null and void on that basis alone because they were not granted through a comprehensive process, Myorkas just handed them out.
I wonder how many of these Humanitarian Parolees are still receiving SSI (up to $2100/mo) and other Gov Bennies . It was supposed to be for only 7 years. Biden extended the term and offered maximum limit on SSI $
“lets”? no dumb(donkey) reporter, they affirmed he always could.
It is we the people who do the “letting” by who we approve of come election time. Trump’s posture of subservience to the judiciary is quite troubling and needs to end pronto. In essence, he is “letting” them steal the power of we the people GUARANTEED to us in Article IV, Section 4. Enforce the Constitution, Mr Trump. You swore an oath to do so.
It is no accident there are continuous headlines pointing out what the Supreme Court allows this President to do.
