Supreme Court Delivers Big Wins for Trump’s Immigration Agenda
Summary
The Supreme Court issued two rulings favoring the Trump administration’s immigration agenda, ruling that courts cannot review the termination of Temporary Protected Status and limiting asylum claims at ports of entry. These decisions empower the executive branch to strip protections from hundreds of thousands of immigrants, potentially leading to mass deportations. The episode also covers Iran striking a ship in the Strait of Hormuz and the aftermath of deadly earthquakes in Venezuela.
